If you have a car, then there’s an on­demand opportunity out there for you. 1. Uber: With Uber, it’s “Your Car. Your Schedule. Your Move.” Uber allows you to use your personal vehicle to make money by giving rides around town.

: Closet Collective is a subscription rental service for everyday designer wear. Have a closet full of clothes you rarely wear? Rent out your $200+ designer pieces and earn extra cash without giving up the option of wearing them again. During the lending period, each item is fully insured, so you don’t have to stay up nights worrying about that Chanel jacket!​
There are two ways of lending your items on Closet collective: 1. DIY: Create your own listings, ship them yourself and keep up to 80% of the rental price. 2. White Glove Service: Package the item in a pre­paid shipping bag and send to Closet Collective for professional photographing and listing. When it’s not being rented out, they will ship it back to you, so you can wear your glamorous item. Keep up to 60% of the rental price. After the rental, Closet Collective dry cleans your designer item and ships it back to you in tip­top shape. Closet Collective has a referral program for both lenders and borrowers. Borrowers get a $25 credit for each friend they refer, and lenders get $25 cash for each referral. Lender referral amount:​
