Hi I think this is good as there are not many vids of Amazon Flex in Australia most are all in the US to give people an idea of what its like, great effort !
thanks mate!
this is an informative video! and the only one i found of its kind for aus
positives:
1. No people to carry or chat to!
2. Listen to your music whilst working
3. Can finish earlier than the time allocated ie 4 hr bock finish in 2
4. Vehicle is completely anonymous
5. don't need GST registration
6. Any age car or type except utes open tops
NEGATIVES:
1. Given random areas so never know where you're going
2. A 4 hr shift can take longer than expected
3. Dogs
4. Risk of parking fines
5. Customers complaining never received their parcel & amazon sending you an email with no information but a veiled threat to dismiss you
6. Sometimes they give too many parcels that won't fit in the car
7. Heavy Parcels
8. Commercial address to deliver but they are closed.
9. Have to return to depot by 10am the next day for any undelivered parcels. ( more petrol and time expense)
10. No parking in certain areas
11. Multiple high-rise deliveries where there is no lift access due to security or lift not working
12. Delivering to customer's address where it is very hard to access in a vehicle ( easier for posties on bikes)
13. Getting out you vehicle repetitively 30 to 50 times (lots of wear and tear on the car as well as your self,easier in van )
Can you select a particular area/suburb to only deliever to?
@@wonderwalls3565 you can go to any Amazonflex warehouse listed in your region. Each place will have its own list of suburbs they deliver too. However you can't select the suburbs as they are given randomly
@@Somethingelse373 thanks, I was thinking to do it over the weekend but there are other options in which one can make more money with a bit of less effort, atleast in Melbourne.
@wondereall S you got anything to recommend?
@@xpandahangoverx are you in Melbourne? is yes then you can earn more per hour working in a shop or driving uber.
You can also do umpiring in cricket matches, you can earn upto 170-180 in 6 hours, no driving no cost of petrol no wear and tear of your car.
Great video. No bla bla. And everything explained. Cheers.
how do you know which package is for what stop when your fully loaded, like do you have to search around to find them or do your order them beforehand
I just did a 4 hour block in Brisbane for the first time. 50 drops and 55 parcels. Took 5.25 hours. Didn't get paid any extra for the overtime. Honestly its a scam and borderline fraud to call it a 4 hour block. Works out $2.52 per parcel. NEVER AGAIN!!!
Nearly dumped half of it at the nearest police station, and in hindsight I should have.
😂 sheesh really I actually downloaded the app 😅
Wow I was just about to download the app, thanks so much for sharing this.
That's $26 an hour. Not bad as a side gig lol. Better than an average doordash for me. I could make $30 in 2 hours some nights with doordash. At least you are guaranteed that money at the end of it and no stupid requests from the customers since it's just a parcel.
Wow that’s not too bad. Right here in USA 60+ packages for 3hours block lol😂
move faster and get better at it you bum, practice makes perfect, you can finish an hour earlier if you actually think
for the background check, which driving records did you obtain from service NSW? is it the certified $32 that can be use for legal purposes and they will send you a copy in the mail, or the $23 that you can immediately download but can't use for legal purposes, very much appreciate your help.
Are you still doing this? If so do you think it's worth it?
Please do more videos
Head camera go pro?
You still doing it?
How is it with insurance?
How is it with petrol prices now?
Tips and tricks?
Phone battery last?
Yep I had a gopro. I still do it from time to time and it is still ok even with current petrol prices
$3.67 per package. What the hell!! Better to do food delivery whenever you want pick up and reject it if it's too far.
Hi boss, can i live on this? Is it profitable to do it full time?
Can you choose which side of the city you want to deliver too?
No
The pay is too low only 136 for 27 stops? What about fuel cost and the time for break?
Professional courier in a tight territory can belt that out in 1.5 hrs.
Amazon can pump a good operator with as much as you can take.
Just a question, i work for a courier company and we deliver amazon parcels and all parcels from amazon are authority to leave, is that the same with working with flex? Are all parcels authority to leave
been an prime customer for a year now, as far as i can tell , they leave everything....................
my 2000$+ lens was left at the front door for half day............
so yeah.............
Australia post and most other parcel delivery services don’t leave stuff at the door they take it to the local post office for customers to collect unless the customers ask for it to be left in a safe place
And many online shops won’t let the delivery driver leave it unless the customers are there to sign for it , it maybe a expensive item
Not true, it's called authority to leave and all couriers are allowed to unless it's signature required, then they have their own drop points like a local convenience store
what a dumb comment
Hey, because this makes your car into a business use vehicle, does it jack up your insurance premiums by much? Also the wear and tear on your car from the increased kms would be bad I’m sure?
Yeah but it makes your car, insurance premiums, loan interest & registration all tax deductible
@@ryanbult3707 Can you do that with Personal use car? As in you bought it for personal use and then you decide to do flex and use your personal car. Can we then claim all of the above?
@@vivekm7398 No you can only claim the % of what you use for the work. For eg if you buy a car for private use and use it 50% of the time for delivery, you can only claim 50% of anything. So if ur insurance was $1400 in that year, you can only claim $700.
@@vivekm7398 I bought a second car and claim 100% of it back (cheap $2.5k and cheap on petrol) just kept rego and insurance as private but, they dont have to know how i use it lol only care what the tax man thinks.
Is the delivery address are close to each other and is this better delivery job compared to other?
Depends on the run you get
Frenchs forest pickup station
beautiful place and easy runs isn’t it?
yep most of the time unless you get chatswood or north sydney
@@deliverybagstore9557 which pick up centre is that ? bella vista?
do they have this in melbourne?
yes, they do!
Looks decent. If you aren't savvy it'll take longer to complete even with gps.
It’s not as hard as it looks. Especially if you are in the same territory daily, you just get 40% faster after a month.
250 drops a day is possible for a real pro.
@@shaneblackwood9052 lol 250 drops a day? thats a bit unrealistic i mean sure if the drops are within distance if theyre in a complex or in a neighbourhood where theyre close to each other. 250 is quite pushing it imo, there are other factors to consider like what time you start, what delivery runs you have, how familiar you with the areas you go to, how you load your parcels in your vehicle so you can have them organised in a way where you dont spend every min or more finding that parcel, what vehicle youre using for delivery work bcos if theres no parking around and youre in a car you cant park in loading zones or you get a ticket.
For me anywhere between 50 and 60 plus most definetly.
@@shaneblackwood9052 isn't it just a flat 4 hour rate regardless of how many drops you do? If so, why would you want to do more in the same 4 hour span lol
$68 an hr ? how come there are so many conflicting hrly wages with amazon flex so many video on them saying its in the 30's was that shift on a weekend ?
It depends on how quick you finish a run. I picked up a 4hr block the other day in Brisbane for $138, and finished in less than 2 and a half hrs. About $60 an hr
@@lolRNG thanks for the comment man
It depends on the run but almost all 4 hour runs you can finish in under 3 hours
@@lolRNG Hi mate!I want to start in Brisbane amazon flex on van so how you think how much really can make for 8hr?
138 bucks for 4 hours still not good considering you pay your own fuel/insurance/ wear and tear on your vehicle... nah no thanks rip off
Lol the covid check-in. Crazy times.
I do this in Perth and the pay is way too low, you only had 27 stops for $136, while in Perth usually it's 40 stops for only $108....
How long does it usually take you to finish 40 stops

Hey daniel. How to apply this job in australia
@@danni372 thats too bad, and you have to pay your own fuel??
Driving to warehouse and back home add another 30-60 min perhaps too
Where are you working? Perth or over East
Sydney
hi, are there any afternoon to evening deliveries?
yep they have those!
@@deliverybagstore9557 also do they give free vest?
@@xxxSEPHxxx yes, they do!
@@deliverybagstore9557 is there a lot of offer at afternoon or evening delivery?
Nice car though
Hi, how did you do the apartment deliveries when no one answers? Where do you leave the package?
I did the van delivery a while ago. They gave me 100 parcels and I was dying. At the beginning I could not put them in order and kept on finding each item by going over each item one by one over and over again.
If no answers, you have to bring the package back to the warehouse
@@deliverybagstore9557 do we still get pay for putting back the delivery back to the warehouse ? What if it closed?
Ive seen a bunch of people like you who just throw parcels in their cars. A 4 hour block takes me 2.5 hours to finish.
Hi mate, How do you sort them in order does the app tell you wich parcel needs to be delivered first second and so on
Or do you get to choose the order in wich you deliver the parcels
No Amazon flex available in your Australia area. JOB is filled.. LMAO
