This is pretty much how DD was first sold to me. "If you make $34 a day every day that's about $1,000 extra a month." I don't do this, but I usually work Friday and Saturday nights and make $100 each day for about $800 extra a month. I get I have other costs, but I work from home with my day job (so I have no commute ever). Doordash is a stress releiver for me. I get to chill, listen to podcasts, drive around my beautiful state, and make some money :)
PRO TIP: IF YOU HAVE A 10 MINUTE WAIT( usually means 20) LET THE CUSTOMER KNOW THE ESTIMATED TIME OF WAIT AND DO ANOTHER NEARBY ORDER WITHIN THAT 15 MIN! You’ll double your weekly income
That was a great tip on that PF Changs order - I would say that my most frustrating experiences have been delivering huge orders (i.e. 10, 15 or even 20 items) to nice houses or even mansions (we're talking $300-400 worth of food sometimes), and then getting a low tip, like $10 or $12. If it's a 1 or 2 item order with a possible hidden tip, you aren't really expecting much in the first place, but for those large ones (from expensive restaurants), your hopes are certainly much higher.
for a very long time I was on SSI (Social security) Until a few months ago. Having gotten used to living on under $30 a day I chose door dash for the flexibility of scheduling, and because I figured if the two laziest people I know in real life can survive on DD with little to no work ethic or drive, then I SHOULD be able to do better. It took me a few weeks to get the hang of scheduling and then took me a month of borrowing money and working 4 hours a day of DD 5 days a week. I just this week am self sustaining and earn a little over twice a week on DD than I got for SSI in a range of 20-25 hours a week. averaging 75 -100 a day. If you are considering beginning gig work like Doordash I highly suggest it. If a disabled stoner like me can make if then YOU sure can! Good luck out there making them coins!
This is exactly what i have been doing on my long commute home from my normal job, usually winds up paying for my gas over the course of the month, which is nice.
For me Uber paid me more such as $3 a trip, meanwhile DoorDash is below $3 the more I get tip on DoorDash, DoorDash base pay was only $2 😊 Today you won’t believe how horrible trip i did today, most of my deliver are apartment, my last trip was a house and she tip me $25! My highest tip ever. God bless her! I started Uber eat & DoorDash for only three days now. This is my side hustle now.
i work in an area with a loooooot of places on doordash so i turn it on when i leave and most of the time, i can get a pretty good offer heading towards my house so i can get paid to go home lol
You probably would have been on a completely different path had you not dropped the DoorDash order earlier. It’s funny how things work out. Positive attitude yields positive results. Great job man!
DD stopped sending me orders after I recieved a contract violation for something that was on them but all my ratings are very high and they say I'm a high order value driver and they want me to go every day but they dont send me not one order and I'll be in the midle of a zone wtf
Maybe it should, but if the driver has to wait 20+ minutes for the orders (very common), the driver is paid $0 for sitting there while the restaurant staff is paid the same for doing what they would normally do
I work sometimes less than 2 hours and make good money, i only go out for 2 days a week for longer hours and other days less than 2 hours before work , i use Instacart and doordash. 😊
Great video, thanks! I have watched several videos trying to get a feel for these side gigs..but none seem to address what happens or how to manage the actual drop off at customers location.,.do you normally hand the items to customer? Do you just drop off outside their door and notify them? What is its fenced area or behind security gates and they don't answer their phones? Just trying to get a feel for all this, thanks!
You either drop the food at the door and take a picture or hand it to the customer. You'll see in the app as you arrive which one they want. Usually they want it right at their door so I usually go through the gates as long as I know there isn't a dog on the other side
Hey Jacob, curious if you're getting the blank maps from UberEats? It's been happening for me and many others for a week or two (my acceptance rate is b/w 20-30% btw). It seems to happen randomly (i.e. sometimes they do show the route) - Uber support has always maintained that it was/is a "bug," but we drivers know better - At best, they are experimenting to see if drivers will take more orders before switching it back. At worst, they are just going to keep it this way permanently. I've probably declined some good orders because there are some areas that I just won't deliver to (i.e. dangerous parts of town or dangerous roads through mountains).
I have a lot of weird issues that could thought of as a "bug" but I think most of them are Uber attempting to test how much the drivers would be willing to put up with. Try to stick to the strategy you w=know will make you good money
@@woodchipgardens9084 If I accept an offer on one app, I'll immediately pause the other one. Although sometimes I will forget, and the other one will go off on route to the restaurant.
Don't you get deactivated for not completing orders like when the wait time in the restaurant is too long? Also how do I get that large Grubhub bag? They did not send me one.

It definitely can be a stress reliever when you're not relying on it for all of your income
They always say some better then nothing right 😂 😂

Yeah that’s a good strategy but you have to know your area well
even 40 to 50 dollars is very decent... i may try this method.. 2 hours 4-5 days per week for me seems pretty simple..
Simple and can make good extra money!

Those huge orders will low tips are the worst. I'm always looking for orders will a ton of items, but unfortunately you can't predict everything
I’m starting to lean towards Uber eats. Door dash is just not good in my area. But Uber eats. I made 50 bucks in 1 hour
I love Uber Eats!

That's great! DD really is a great job, especially for people that don't need to work 40 hours a week
Wait til you pay Uncle Sam his cut, and your car wears out, and DD starts giving you craps. DD has got you in the honey moon stage.
@burymebelowawillowtree9243 I'm thinking about doing this, please explain
This is exactly what i have been doing on my long commute home from my normal job, usually winds up paying for my gas over the course of the month, which is nice.
That's a great idea!
I enjoy doing DD as a side job. I do get some nice offers at times.

DoorDash hates me all they send me is trash, 95% of my daily income comes from Uber Eats

Uber is solid, but it's a shame DoorDash isn't good for you right now
@@PhoenixDeliveries me who started doordash today, my first order I got 3 dollars and my second was 4.50 for an 8-mile drive :(
@@SabreVellerium Don't accept those. Let someone else take it
Almost 7K subs? Wow...I remember when you had about 500. Congrats!
I know! It's crazy!
You’re just pleasant to listen to, thanks for all your good videos!
I appreciate it! Thanks!
TBF, that big of a tip on a catering order, some of that should go to restaurant staff who helped produce and package up the meals… just my 2 cents
Maybe it should, but if the driver has to wait 20+ minutes for the orders (very common), the driver is paid $0 for sitting there while the restaurant staff is paid the same for doing what they would normally do

That's awesome!
i never send customers a note at drop off... but always later i send all customers a basic thank you..
That's good!

I just started with Uber eats…and I’m waiting on my Uber pro card! Any tips on saving gas? Or how to use the card for cash back on gas??
I made a video about the card, but haven't received mine yet: czcams.com/video/nzWnMqSqOT8/video.html
Hey just curious
Does uber supply you with the delivery bag after signing up with them
Or you have to buy it from them?
The bag is free, you get it after your first delivery
Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. I never got one
@@PhoenixDeliveries Really? You should contact them they have the best bags
It would be neat if when you accept an order on one app, the other app would automatically be paused.
Would be nice, but I don't think the apps like each other that much haha
@@woodchipgardens9084 If I accept an offer on one app, I'll immediately pause the other one.
Although sometimes I will forget, and the other one will go off on route to the restaurant.
Don't you get deactivated for not completing orders like when the wait time in the restaurant is too long? Also how do I get that large Grubhub bag? They did not send me one.
No, you just have to keep your completion rate above 80%. Grubhub sends you a large bag after completing 100 deliveries I believe
There is no communication no real support not a good fit for older people even thru text the "support team" extremely rude and disrespectful
