Spring is around the corner and, as always, it marks the beginning of the busiest stretch of the year on DRIVESHARE. Bookings start earlier than many owners expect.
Weddings, proms, corporate events, weekend drives and photo shoots all begin filling the calendar long before summer officially arrives. The cars that are visible, current and clearly available are the ones that secure those early bookings.
Start with your calendar
If your car is coming out of storage, make sure your availability reflects when you are genuinely ready to accept bookings. If you have holidays planned or maintenance scheduled, block those dates off now.
An accurate calendar prevents unnecessary back-and-forth and ensures you don’t miss opportunities simply because your availability isn’t clear. As demand increases, clarity becomes an advantage.
Refresh your listing
Take a few minutes to review your listing as if you were the renter. Are your photos up to date and strong enough to stand out? Does your description reflect the car as it is today, especially if you’ve completed restoration work or upgrades?
As activity builds, renters compare more listings, and even small improvements can make a noticeable difference. A refreshed profile signals that you’re active and ready.
Think beyond rentals
We continue to see strong demand for weddings, proms and event bookings, particularly for cars with presence and personality. If you’re open to chauffeured work or event-only use, make sure that’s clearly selected on your listing so you appear in the right searches.
This is also the ideal time to consider DRIVESHARE Experiences. The warmer months lend themselves to curated drives and half-day adventures that showcase both your car and your local knowledge.
Scenic routes, countryside loops or destination stops can all become bookable Experiences. Owners who create these early often benefit from being first in their area while the calendar is still flexible.
Be ready when bookings arrive
The busy season doesn’t begin in summer. It begins now, as people start planning. A few minutes spent updating your calendar and refreshing your listing today can set you up for a busy season ahead.
So why not log in, review your availability and make sure your car is ready for what’s coming?
