Many delivery platforms require riders to hold a valid licence, vehicle registration, and insurance before they can start delivering.

Unauthorized commercial use may result in penalties or account suspension.

• Hold a valid driver’s licence for the vehicle type
• Comply with Australian road laws
• Maintain active delivery platform accounts

6. Insurance and Liability

Renters are responsible for any damage caused during the rental period.
