  • The Midwest Express talks about the common misunderstandings of #roadie.
    Roadie is a great app to combo with Spark, Uber, Lyft and others.

    2:40 I am glad you used the word "usually", I was literally in a TSC when I when I submitted a requested a gig. Roadie assigned someone 30 miles away. Both me and TSC Mgr. were both scratching our heads at that one.

    Roadie orders are virtually nonexistent in my area

    I have delivered with Roadie for over 2 years and the low pay per gig in the last year is definitely an issue now with most of the gigs and continues to be trending down. The saturated amount of drivers has helped drive the gig pricing down along with drivers accepting gigs too low and losing money in many cases. Roadie has also lost or getting fewer gigs from many of their vendors. It's not just Roadie, I have also seen lower pay and less gigs from Frayt, Dispatch, and Spark also. I have had some great gigs with Roadie however stay true to what you are worth before accepting the gig. Holding out on a Roadie gig to get the pay up is also key.

    I had the same issue with my blinker. It was the housing unit for it. Such a pain! Happened like my second week ever off gig work last April. Road dirty for a couple weeks till the part came in lol.

    In my area, by 11:00 you missed all the good best buy, Home deport, tractor supply, & Wal-Mart orders. Medical runs start about 12:00pm to 1:30pm. If you're lucky you can snag a huge or X-large order when tend to be 30+ for short distances. Caution with that is, if you arrive and the item can't fit in your vehicle Roadie will deactivate your account.
    I'm still trying to figure out who is stupid enough to take these stupid orders such as $54 from central Virginia to western Virginia. In that 4.5 hour drive you could get that amount or more using Grub Hub or even a bad run w/ amazon flex.
    I champion Roadie because it is less stressful and less miles than Amazon flex. On a good day I will take slightly less just to avoid Amazon flex, especially if I stacked a Draiver on top of it. Especially with only base pay showing up as new people are taking base pay then complain about having 40 stop or going too far. Your vehicle is also something to consider. Met a driver who had a 6 cylider 4WD Pick Up and he was hurting when huges don't show up. I use my 2003 Corolla for most orders and my Promaster City for larger orders.

      I went there for my nephews funeral. The traffic there is unbearable. Had to make my way through 7 different traffic jams just to get out of the area.
