This past Sunday I did my highest paying delivery in a year and a half of being at it with Uber Eats and Door Dash. It was a $580 Door Dash order from a BBQ restaurant. $4 in pay and a $49 tip for a total of $53. It took about 15 minutes start to finish.
Just shows how greedy doordash is. They get a 550$ order they got about 30% of that total then they throw the driver a measly 4$ lmao. Drivers assume all the risk and these companies still pay pennies. Good tip though. But it could been way more if dd actually paid something
@@fredpenner5667doordash made about 165$ just off the food alone not including the fees they collect, the company is criminal. They literally do 0 of the work
Tip baiters on Spark have been bad. I called support and they said this has been happening to a lot of drivers. They said they plan on changing this so customers can only remove a small portion of the tip and not the whole thing. Fingers crossed…
I just started doing Uber eats deliveries other day to make some money during the summer before I go back to colllege. You’re videos are hella entertaining man, you got a good attitude towards what you do and you make me wanna go out and make some money!
Dashers, Uber eats Drivers and Grubhub drivers should pick up orders only when it says 1 Mile = $1+ Tips, Example Order value $5, 7Miles, this is a Bad order. If the Order value is $5+ Tips, distance is 3 miles or 4 miles this is a good order. When you are driving you should consider Depreciation of the Vehicle, wear & tear of vehicle, Gas used for driving and your time spent driving the vehicle. If you are not following these rules then you are wasting your time and Money. If you are delivering food in a bigger city then you should be getting more than this money. Thank you and Good Luck Guys. 👍✌️😀🙏🙂😁😍😂
Hear this out all drivers. I did postmates and doordash por 3 months in a period of 3 years You made $887 in a week. Great! Now deduct $354 for taxes. Great! Now deduct $10 for oil change. Great! Now deduct $50 for wear and tear for when you need to take it to the shop Great! Now deduct $40 for gas. Great You have $433 left. Great! But then your cars breaks down very rapidly that makes not fixable anymore. Bad! Now you can’t money, because their is no car. Bad!
Hertz allows me to rent a car for delivery for about $250 a week after taxes. Worst case scenario, use someone else's car & let them absorb the depreciation & maintenance. I budget 31 cents a mile for fuel, insurance, maintenance, repairs , depreciation & taxes. You have an insane tax rate, is that Massachusetts?
@@wayneanderson8034 $1000 a month for a car rental for delivery purpose? Is that even a good idea? And hopefully you have your personal auto insurance with you otherwise it will be another hefty costs to purchase it from the rental car company.
@@omniultima4747 it's a good idea, when you have no car. Are you going to sit earning nothing instead? I have all the insurance in my policy. I would rather earn less rather than nothing when my car is in the shop.
I work from 7:45am to 3:45pm Thursday through Monday and make between $700.00 to $800 a week from spark only. I work tell I get to $160.00 for the day than I go home that’s all I need. I’m retired from the grocery business and have my pension coming in. Spark is the best to work for Uber and door dash kinda sucks for me.
they added cali for solo u should update map. by the way, boston is way better than california wtf.. all the drivers came here for prop22 now theres no money to be made.. dont even get 1 order that looks liek that
4:05 Hahaha it’s the same way here in Philly. I never take orders from them unless the pay is very hight because you’ll be waiting 45 minutes for a tomato soup.
Is it possible for it to be wayyyy busier when the kids are out of school for the summer? I’ve been trying to take orders for DD and there’s been like no time slots available
Summer is the slowest season on ubereats/doordash. If you want to make money during the summer, you have to go out after dark-that's when it gets busy!
@@henrykirk4457 Depends on the season. During winter - Gym Membership shower. Rest of reasons, I'd go to the local beach & use their shower heads they have there. Get your cleansing supplies from dollar store and you're set. That'll be my routine if ever homeless/sleeping in car.
Trevor I'm in Somerville myself I just recently started driving nights and weekends I have a question for you have you done late nights in Boston at all? If so have they been productive? Thank you and love the channel by the way
They need to have N option for these apps so that you can set up up to were it gets you close to where you want to go. Maybe you want to go home but just want an order that going to take you close to your home. If they had an option you could set it up so that ubereats or whatever app you use know that you want an order that's on the way to your home. I think this would be a good option.
This wouldn’t be too hard to code into these apps, I’m sure their developers are aware of this and just don’t care too much about their contractors doing the actual work because they’re going to be doing the work regardless if they’re not taken care of, it’s predatory
I think they should do like a feature where you can pick the minimum $ to show up in your screen and automatically decline orders that are under the $ that you set. Tired of seeing all these $3-$4 orders.
Try Doral, I worked there a few days & did really well during a hurricane on the space coast. Everything is transacted in Español is the only downside. I probably averaged around $1.50 mile for all miles driven. Lunch was great, lots of bosses ordering bbq & pizza for the staff. The Doral market is small in area, trips are short. Lots of high rises but I never had to deliver to one. It was like visiting another nation.
@@wayneanderson8034 😁😁😁Thanks for your input. Just finished my shift been all over Miami. Long trips only $47. That's all I've been making for the past couple of weeks. No matter what I do how much I switch up. They are keeping my tips, capping me, profiling, stalling, IDLING the app and freezing it. This industry has turned into ABYSMAL 💩!
@@factsmatter1172 Florida is market driven. I have worked around 40 different markets in South & Central Florida. If you are in a poverty pay market, you have no chance of making minimum wage. The few high paying markets are limited zones of larger markets. It is the algorithm deciding how much to charge customers & how much to pay driver's zone by zone. In Stuart & Fort Pierce, I can't even make more than $7 hour. The best zone is portions of Palm Beach Gardens, averaging $30 hour gross. Drive a few miles south to West Palm Beach & you will be lucky to gross $20 hour. Hialeah pays decent, but is a little sketchy. I tried Miami Gardens & didn't feel safe. The east side of Boca Raton pays really good if you feel like driving up there. Other good ones are Deerfield Beach & the far west edge of Coral Springs. Tamarac for me was just one painfully cheap offer after another. Hope thar helps you get an idea that we are paid based on what the algo has already decided we will earn. So the only solution is, drive to a high paying market.
So currently I do door dash on my girls account. Any tips for other apps. I know Uber ask for face verification every now and then. But which other apps are worth it. Also I don’t like Uber. I get shit orders and only like half of whatever the total says it is Also I have to put around 8-9 hours a day to hit $100. I’ll be lucky to even get $20 a hour. I’m in Texas so I know our markets are different. But I want to multi app
I used to get tip baited a lot then I learned my lesson if you see a huge tip on a delivery to a trashy area or a mobile home park probably not gonna happen... Cancel that asap. And the same for the college area... Those kids are super cheap they used to do that to me a lot they not only tip bait they want rationalize it too so they down vote you for a slow delivery or item was tampered with so they double whammy you. Tip bait and fake accusations. So I learned pretty quick avoid those areas... Especially if you see a too good to be true tip.
I seen comments that spark will close down soon cause Walmart is doing their own deliveries. They started a year or two ago and they are phasing drivers out. Always cancelling our orders and stuff only faves (immigrants/illegals are getting orders fulfilled in Miami).
2 years ago I signed up for several apps. Got immediately accepted for only doordash and uber. Still waiting to get off the wait-list for GrubHub, Instacart, and spark. Two years?! Shiz broken lol
Regarding the chick getting blocked for attempted delivery compensation. You just say OK, thanks, and hang up. You call back in and someone with a clue will do it. It just depends on who you get. They are rogue agents with roosters crowing in the background and kids screaming. They're working at home for like $3 an hour in the Philippines. That's how cheap Uber is. Facts. Just call back in and you'll get someone else who will give you the measly $3. This entire racket is pathetic. You guys need to start collecting data and making screen shots and start filing FTC complaints and to the Attorney General in California and in your State. These predatory companies are riding off the backs of poor drivers and they're skirting a lot of laws here in the USA. Walmart deliveries are very misleading and it's straight up fraud. The whole entire thing is falling a part. If I get one more Walmart where it says one drop and one item. And I get there and it's a multi drop or batched order for more than one customer and each customer has 42 items and 16 items for the second customer then I'm filing my complaints. I just need another screen shot. This is misleading and fraud 100%. Then Puber Eats has the audacity to enable the customer to pull the money back with their TIP BAITING policy. The customer can say the drivers had brown hair like her ex-boyfriend who she hates now, the driver parked a little crooked on the street, the driver smelled like broccoli and she hates broccoli, or they're just having a bad day and need someone to kick. BOOM! No tip. But the service has been rendered, the gas has been spent, and my time and wear and tear on my vehicles has happened. Puber Eat's doesn't give a fat crap. They enable to the customer to exploit the ONLY MONEY we can earn which is the customer tip. They're like "we made our money off this, so screw you driver!" And that's just who they are. They get free gas, free unlimited use of our cars, no benefits, no discounts on food, zero liability if you're hurt, zero compensation on tires and brakes and oil changes and repairs, and we're out there risking our lives with these nut case drivers our there every single day. They're getting way with murder. I do not think the Department of Labor, United States Federal Trade Commission, The Attorney General, etc is aware of what Uber Eats is doing. Dork Dash isn't as bad. But their terrible customer service is bad. Plus if you have food go missing from a customer committing fraud and stealing food. Puber Eats will not tell you who it was, or what restaurant, or what time of day, or what actual day it happened, or the address, or let you know who complained. Nothing! You get a fraud letter. But they will not disclose who complained. So you're left gutted. How can a driver improve their behavior or conduct out there if they will not drill down on what happened. How can they be better? They just say "food was reported as missing" and that's that. Well who complained!??! They won't tell you. This is bull crap. All of it. I think a whole slew of class actions are going to come down on Uber. I'm definitely filing once I get one more of those misleading Walmart orders or anything else they do that is super sketch.
Luckily I have never had a tip baiter so far, I know they are out there though so I am always thinking about it. In my area doordash is usually really good thursday through sunday. I get good orders on ubereats and the tips are always increased afterwards but that is only one day a week. The rest of the time I can have the app on all day and not get a single thing. And I wish on doordash you could set a limit for orders you will accept. Like don't send me anything under $7. I hate it because I got my acceptance rate reset to 70%, I got four 2 dollar orders the next day right away when I went out with my reset rate, by declining those four orders my rate dropped to 45%. Earlier I only did three deliveries which I had to cherry pick out of 15 bad orders and now I am at 25%. But I know it is not them really it is the customers, if it is a hotspot and 100 orders come in and 85 of the are crap they have to go around to everyone to decline. But again probably just my area, I make 220 on a good week, 90 bucks on a slow week. Can't get on grubhub, been on the waiting list for five months, spark is not here, instacart is only stores that are 30 minutes from me, shipt is not accepting anyone, no amazon work. Enough of my babbling, good luck everyone!
