Calendar Blocking: no auto-extensions, never go carless
Two situations come up constantly for hosts: a guest keeps extending a trip back-to-back with no gap in between, and a sudden wave of bookings leaves every single car spoken for — so when someone needs a swap, a tow, or just shows up unannounced, there’s nothing free to give them. TuroVA’s new Calendar Blocking rules handle both automatically, right from the Pricing & Blocks page.
Stop auto-extension in its tracks
Set a rule to block a car for a set number of hours or days after every trip ends, and that window is off-limits the moment the trip is over — before a guest ever gets the chance to push their return date back. No more discovering an “extended” trip that quietly ran into the buffer time you needed for cleaning, maintenance, or just not renting the same car back-to-back.
Never get caught without a car
The second rule type watches your whole fleet, not just one car. Tell TuroVA a threshold — say, “keep at least 2 cars free” — and pick which car(s) should be the ones held in reserve. The moment a new booking or trip change brings your unbooked count down to that threshold, TuroVA blocks the reserve car(s) for exactly the days everything else is booked solid, so you always have something to hand a guest.
Set the rule once. TuroVA watches every booking and trip change and keeps your calendar in sync automatically — no daily babysitting required.
Rules run themselves, both ways
Every rule is checked automatically as bookings and trip changes come in. Blocks go up the moment a rule's condition is met, and just as importantly, they come back down on their own once it isn't — a cancellation that frees up another car, for example, lifts a reserve block within a minute, no manual cleanup needed.
Set up in seconds
On the Pricing & Blocks page, pick your car(s) the same way you already do for pricing, choose “Block after end time,” “Block before start time,” or the fleet-reserve rule, fill in the number, and save. You can layer as many rules as you want across your fleet.
