As long as you have someone that can be verified as your driver and they are willing to wait or come back when you're done, just pay them to do it. My husband went home and came back when they called him. We gave them his cell number and that was it. I don't recall any 'proof of relationship' needed. An uber driver could be your neighbor, right?
