The Guru Take
Unfortunately, it depends...
Some rideshare companies allow you to schedule future rides and some do not.
Uber has recently started allowing riders to schedule future rides in advance in a few select cities throughout the US. Through this feature Uber allows passengers to schedule rides up to 30 days in advance. If Uber allows this feature in your area you will see a button that says "Schedule a Ride" near the bottom of your Uber app. Through this button you can schedule a ride in advance. If you do not have this button in your Uber app, unfortunately this means that scheduled Uber rides are not yet available in your area. For more information on Uber's scheduled rides click here.
Lyft also allows riders to schedule rides up to 7 days in advance in the following cities: Chicago, Denver, Miami, Phoenix, Portland, Sacramento, San Diego, San Francisco, Tuscon, and Washington, DC.
Traditional Taxi Cabs will also almost always let you schedule rides in advance, simply call their office to schedule your ride!

Yeah, you can book in a advance I think so, my friend in Los Angels he was booked for riding three months before.
