Start Driving and Earn Money with Uber

Once you're approved, you can start driving and earning money through the Uber driver apps. Be sure to place your emblem visibly in your car and keep all required documents on hand.

Been searching for “Uber inspection near me free” or wondering about the real Uber inspection cost?

Look no further—we’ve broken down the top two options to help you decide.

Option 1: Local Shop or Uber Greenlight Hub

• Schedule your Uber vehicle inspection at a mechanic shop or Uber Hub.
• Inspection costs vary ($20–$50+) depending on the shop, like the Jiffy Lube Uber inspection price.
• Limited locations, long wait times, and you’ll often need to bring the printed Uber inspection form (Download here).
• Some hubs once offered free Uber inspections, but these are now rare and harder to access.
