Return the car

The return checklist at the end of a slot, the charge level and the late return charge.

Updated
12 September 2026

Do this at the end of every slot, at the hub, 2874 Greenfield, Providence.

Before you start. Go offline before you drive to the hub, so dispatch does not offer you a ride on the way. Plan to arrive before the slot ends. A car must be back before the next holder's slot starts.

Steps

  1. Tap Go offline in GuyWay Driver.
  2. Drive to the hub and park at a free charger.
  3. Plug in the cable and check that the car shows Charging.
  4. Remove your belongings and any rubbish. Check the back seat and the boot for riders' items. Hand any lost item to the attendant.
  5. Take a photo of each side, the front, the back, the wheels and the interior.
  6. Tap Return in the app, upload the photos and note the charge level. Check with GuyWay operations for the charge level a car must have at return.
  7. Hand your key card to the attendant if your next slot is not the next day. Keep it if the attendant tells you to.
  8. Tap Confirm return.

What happens next

The car is unassigned from you on the platform. Your slot ends on your statement at the time of the confirmed return. Km driven, charges and any damage found are attributed up to that moment.

If you return the car late, the published late return charge is applied to your statement. Check with GuyWay operations for the late return charge and the grace period before it applies.

Warning a car not returned at the end of a slot is a non-return under the rental agreement. GuyWay gives 48 hours written notice before it immobilises a car for non-return. See When a car can be immobilised.
