Your vehicle must be registered and roadworthy, but there's no minimum year requirement in most cases. This means almost any car in good condition can be used for food delivery. At Lazy Drive, most of the fleet qualifies for Uber Eats — giving you a wider choice of affordable vehicles. ## Why Weekly Rental Makes Sense for Delivery Drivers Delivery driving puts a lot of kilometres on a car — often 300–500+ km per week. Weekly rental with unlimited kilometres means you never worry about excess km charges. You also get predictable weekly costs, no wear and tear on your own vehicle, damage cover and roadside assistance included, and the flexibility to stop if delivery work doesn't suit you — just return the car with one week's notice. ## Best Vehicles for Uber Eats Delivery at Lazy Drive For Uber Eats delivery, fuel efficiency is king. You're driving constantly, so every dollar saved on fuel goes straight to your bottom line. The best options from the Lazy Drive fleet are: ### Budget-Friendly Options Toyota Yaris from $160/week — excellent fuel economy, compact and easy to park in tight delivery spots. Mazda 2 from $160/week — similar efficiency and affordability. Hyundai i20 from $160/week — reliable and economical daily driver. ### Mid-Range Options Suzuki Swift from $190/week — light and nimble, perfect for inner-city delivery routes. Toyota Corolla from $170/week — bulletproof reliability with more cabin space. These offer a good balance of fuel economy, comfort, and boot space for delivery bags. ## Can You Do Both Uber Eats and UberX? Yes — if your vehicle is UberX eligible (typically 2012 or newer), you can register for both platforms and switch between passenger rides and food delivery. This is a popular strategy: do UberX during peak passenger hours (Friday/Saturday nights, early mornings) and switch to Uber Eats during quieter times. Lazy Drive has vehicles that qualify for both platforms. ## Uber Eats Delivery in Brisbane Brisbane is a strong market for Uber Eats delivery, especially in high-density suburbs like Fortitude Valley, South Brisbane, West End, New Farm, and Paddington. Weekday dinner hours (5–9pm) and weekend lunches are typically the busiest periods. Setting up a toll account is recommended if you deliver across different parts of the city, as Brisbane's toll roads connect many popular delivery areas. ## Common Mistakes Uber Eats Drivers Make - ✗ Using a large, fuel-hungry car for delivery — small hatchbacks save significantly on fuel - ✗ Not tracking fuel expenses for tax deductions - ✗ Driving during slow periods when delivery demand is low - ✗ Renting a car without unlimited km — delivery driving racks up kilometres fast - ✗ Not having a good phone mount — essential for safe navigation while delivering ## Why Delivery Drivers Choose Lazy Drive Lazy Drive understands what delivery drivers need: fuel-efficient, reliable vehicles with unlimited km and affordable weekly rates. - Most of the fleet qualifies for Uber Eats delivery - Fuel-efficient hatchbacks from $160/week - Unlimited kilometres — essential for delivery work - RACQ roadside assistance included - Intro offer: $99/week for the first 2 weeks on 8+ week rentals - Pickup in Albion — central location for Brisbane delivery zones ## Frequently Asked Questions ### Do I need a special car for Uber Eats delivery?
