Dashers this is great advice. DO NOT accept any order under $3.50 When these trash orders are declined enough times doordash will increase the amount just to get someone to take it. So if we all work together and decline them we can force the amount up to an acceptable amount.

This has been happening to us lately. 😢

The IRS calculation for business mileage reimbursement for 2023 is $0.655/mile (total cost of ownership & operation). So for a 2.8 mile delivery the car alone costs $1.834. That means the driver earns only $1.666 for a 10-15 minute delivery. That does not include 'dead-heading' to this job and to the next job. Now banks are telling auto dealers they will *not* lend to uber, lyft, doordash, etc. drivers. That's because the cars they are getting back are two-year old cars with 80,000 miles plus on the ODO.

And she completely understood and tipped me extra. I thought she would be mad.. anyway I digress. So I noticed that my rate went to 50% right after the orders. Bc it was late. Not due to myself.. so should I have done what the app asked? I can’t remember the verbiage. But it said something about not having a penalty. Or keep the order and be penalized? What is this?

Usually, when you're in a situation where you're waiting a long time for the order but you still intend to take it, hit the link at the bottom of the order that says something about waiting for a long while. It'll bring up a checklist where you could check off why you've been waiting. From what I've been told, this will give an explanation to doordash as to why things are taking so long and should lessen the chance that your on time percentage goes down. I hope that helps.

I am in Dallas. I always have both Door Dash and Uber Eats up and running. As soon as I accept an order I immediately go to the other app and pause (DD has a pause. UE you go offline). Acceptance rate needs to be 50% or better on DD to get higher paying orders. UE doesn't have an acceptance rate requirement. Also, there is a certain culture that regularly doesn't tip. You'll figure it out as you go but I am wary of these restaurants. McDonalds is ok during peak hours but horrible after hours when there are like 3 people working the shift.

The delivery apps are trying to combat cold food which is the biggest customer complaint. In order to do this they are sending drivers way early to restaurants even before the order has been started and before the restaurant has clicked "call for driver" on their iPad. Contrary to what you might think , they also now send the closest available driver to the restaurant. This combination means we are constantly waiting for food and it's only going to get worse to the point where it's no longer worth our time to do food delivery.

Small town DoorDash user here, I live within 2 miles MAX of everything & I always wondered if DD payed you guys anything at all on top of our tips. It’s interesting to see the comments knowing that your area makes a huge difference. One thing I like about Uber eats is if the food comes to my house tampered with or if the driver is a complete dunce I can change the tip. Also the pro to that is I can give extra if the service is extra in anyway. If I ever see a DD driver stuck at let’s say chilis for more then 5 - 10 minutes I text them letting them know it’s okay on my end but that I understand there time is money an we usually talk trash about the restaurant & that seems to alleviate some of the stress. Those orders I tip well on knowing that it puts the driver out of commission for a bit. So far in my town all the drivers have been great & because I know that some people like me don’t like dealing with people face to face I just tell them to leave it at the door so they can just go without some awkward hand off 🤣 thanks for uploading this video to give both sides some insight to DDing

I do mostly late night dashing. I'll take a $3.50 super low mileage 7eleven order. Orders at most of the McDonald's, definitely gotta pay more.

Since I started multi-apping, I've learned that DD really doesn't respect your time. With the other apps, the food is almost always ready when I walk in. With DD I almost always have to wait on the food. It is clear that DD just grabs someone nearby when the order is placed, while the others time it so the food is ready when you get there.

@michaelhuebner6843

Жыл бұрын

That is incorrect. GH dispatched offers immediately to drivers with no buffer. They always did this until March of 2022 when they improved their dispatch system with help from Amazon. DD and UE have similar dispatch system and they both work the same. There is a small buffer on each order before it is sent out, but not that much. The reason for this is drivers decline offers and driver desirability pay increases with time to increase the base pay on an offer. It is just random luck when you get the offer in comparison to when the order is ready. Since DD has so many active drivers it is hard to get offers so people are accepting low ball offers for various reasons. DD drivers aren't kicking around bad offers like we used to in the past with fewer drivers which is why you see less DD offers in the past 6 months. If you do get a DD offer chances are you are the first or second driver to see it. The offers on DD get snatched up very quickly these days. This is due to the glut of drivers active on the platform.

Heads up with the doordash support calling about a canceled order (the one you are on). They will ask you for your account info so they can process your pay. It's not Doordash support

Another thing DoorDash (and other gig apps) doesnt tell you thats pretty important.... Your full coverage insurance is NOT ENOUGH!!! Most insurance plans does NOT cover you if you are delivering and get in an accident. I learned the hard way! Even the policies that most insurance companies offer us delivery drivers dont cover you through the entire process. According to them there is 3 parts to a delivery... most will only cover you for 2 of those 3 parts. Check your policy and know for sure what is covered!

Tips should be placed by the person who orders when they order and the total expected amount should be shown to you. That would save people's times and force people who place orders to raise their bids if nobody picks their order. Drivers should also be able to set a minimum in their apps, so the system could warn customers if there's no driver around willing to accept the proposed tip. Can't believe they don't have something like that in the system already. Same with Uber. You try to get a short trip, the app defines the amount, you see there's a driver or two nearby, they never pick your ride because it's not enough profit for them. Meanwhile they stay there without working for a very long time and you're unable to raise the amount you want to pay so they find it fair to come to you. I had to walk with luggage 3 or 4 in the morning for about 4 Km, including roads without sidewalks, because I couldn't just add a bonus. Meanwhile I could see a couple of cars in the Uber map. 😬 Happy to know they're not punishing people for not taking orders if it's not worth their time.

@@linross246 The middle man always wants to take the most from people paying and give the least to people working. But you ask deliverers if they'd like to be paid directly in the future and you're the one that sounds like a creep instead of them recognizing you want to cut the middle man while spending less while also letting them keep more. Same with Uber. Most drivers just want you to use the app instead of offering you a discounted deal for cash on the side (so they can also avoid tax). Uber is great for consumers in poor countries (at least in Brazil) but here in Europe it's VERY expensive for users, not profitable enough for drivers, difficult to find any driver available when you actually need one (when there's no buses going around, for example, because it's 3 AM). When I can, I just drive myself or take the bus. You can't get an Uber 3 AM even if you are willing to tip 10 euros where I live, on top of surcharge and regular cost. Specially if it's a short ride from your house to the train station. I had to drag my luggage a couple of times for a few Km on the street because of it. No taxis either. Or you have to travel to the airport the night before and sit in the airport for 8 hours.

Actually they are punishing you the more you decline the more percentage rate goes down and all you'll get is 5 to 7 dollar orders or larger orders with very long mileage that you can only purchase gas with so you delivered the food for free!

What I notice too is on the dash app the customer can't order everything that's on the restaurant's menu, which I feel holds back potential orders. Example, I can't order a lasagna because the restaurant doesn't have it listed on the dash app.

#1 worst thing McDonald's does is _put the cold drinks in the bag with the hot food._ I hate that. I hate it every time I see it. Not just drinks, either. Picked up from a sushi place today that put hot food in with the sushi roll. But generally, it's cold drinks that go into the bag with the hot food. And I hate picking up Starbucks orders because they put drinks in the bag, too, and I've had their drinks spill. I have a 6-slot drink carrier to keep the coffee warm (or cold, depending on the coffee drink), but they just _have_ to put it in a Starbucks bag for... reasons. It's worse because I mainly drive Uber Eats. I often get extra tips from my deliveries. But who's going to want to tip extra for a cold burger, cold fries, and a lukewarm, watered-down drink?

When I get an order in a drink carrier I take them out at my car and load them up in a mini ice chest.

Keeps my car from smelling like food, also. And with the original hotbag and the new pizza bags Im able to deliver cold drinks, hot food, and cold deserts safely. I carry the mini ice chest to the door and unload the drinks back into the carrier. I make sure the ice chest is in the frame when I take the pic. As far as the sealed bags, I love those. No fuss, no muss. Place them in my large ice chest and Im outta there. The cold drinks/hot food issue is between the person who ordered, and the place that packed it like that.

My thoughts are that if you are buying your meal at a place like MCD, Wendy's, KFC, etc, you are also probably trying to keep the cost down, which in turn tells me they would not be big tippers. That is why I prefer to hang around the Carraba's, Olive Garden, (more restaurant-type, less fast food). Am I overthinking this?

Most of the time it isn't so I just cancel and try to pick up another. I avoid apartment complexes and high rises that I am unfamiliar with. The ones in my area tip poorly and are usually cumbersome to deal with. Chipotles seem to be good money makers during lunch and dinner rush. I usually post up there, some Pizza places are good too if they can actually get the food cooked on time. ALWAYS look at miles vs. dollars and reject anything that doesn't make sense. Choosing which orders we accept is obviously key to your hourly earnings and the main power we hold as drivers. DECLINE crap orders no matter how many times DD sends them your way!

good points ... but one thing i didn't hear you mention is the Acceptance Rate the Doordash app keeps reminding drivers every single time the app is started ... yes, we can skip / decline orders we don't want to take for any reason ... but that also lowers the our acceptance rate, which affects our overall performance according to Doordash standards ... however, i have also noticed that Doordash informs us of our AR as well as Customer Satisfaction 2 times when the app starts, once in the beginning and once when the early prompts stop showing up ... and the numbers given in the two prompts related to AR and CS differ greatly! in my example, on the 1st one i get %75 AR and 4.5 CS while on the 2nd one i get %95 AR and 4.7x CS ... which makes me laugh and interpret it as something wrong with the app's algorithm and so on ... but i also think maybe there's a good reason the app works that way!? dunno really ...

Merchant relationship is probably the most important tip that gets overlooked. I always say words of encouragement and gratitude weather they are slow or not. I can show up to pick up an order and most of the time they know me and will skip to my order if I’m in line with other dashers.

yeah they keep saying "you dont get punished" and are independent contractors... probably not true. I worked for instacart ( just in store ) but so much stuff is crap about them... they lure people in like " oh make your own schedule'" .. no . youre working under management... they expect availability 6 days a week so you can be scheduled so its like any stupid job with a floating schedule and they do schedule random and split up any chance of a weekend. I live in a weird rural / suburban area but right next to the main drag and we have two towns like that within a mile or two of each other... when i look up my zip code to see available participants its like BK / MD ... Dunkin donuts etc. i guess it would be where theyre going because we technically have some boonies around here so i dont know. but thats a bunch of bullshit if they do have a secret system. oh well. I just want to be able to "dash now" and maybe pick up 10 bucks or like 100 bucks in a week i guess for now im just desperate.

FREAKIN' WINGSTOP!!!!! I've blacklisted every single one in every city near me.

I know a person that successfully juggle between Instacart and Door Dash by simply pausing Door Dash to take an Instacart order and continue to pause until they've completed an Instacart batch.

I have a friend who owns a restaurant. Restaurants tell the apps how long their food will take to be ready for pickup. They can do it menu item by menu item or make it a blanket time, such as 20 minutes.

Another thing in the PEAK PAY PAY MODEL IT STATES PEAK PAY OFFERED IS IN ADDITION TO ORIGINAL OFFER WHEN ACCEPTING DELIVERY! Many times they insert PPay into the original offer and label it "peak pay " which is contrary to the defined Peak Pay model! Drivers beware !! Those extra bucks represent lots of money that ADDS UP!! It is very confusing especially when you think you got proper peak pay when you really didn't!

Great advice! Wish I saw this sooner before I started Dashing!

That's a great point you made with double app dashing. I was going to give it a go, but would hate to have one of my busier apps get shut down for a few dollars. The what if I thought of, is say your double app dashing, and your 2nd app is sending you pick up orders that does not aligned with the first order and now your force to constantly decline. Now I believe in DD contract states, too much decline can get your app deactivate.

I agree, blacklist most fast food. Sometimes Shake Shack can have long wait times.

Location is key. Some areas that are bigger require more driving. More time and money...pick an area that is smaller with lots of doordash restaurants👍

I average $20-24 hour.... 1600 deliveries over 4 months. Solely with D-Dash

A good thing to do if you are multi apping and you get two orders is don't confirm the pickup until you get both orders. I have done it numerous times even with long waits. I have even done Instacart shops (usually only a couple quick items), and wait to confirm the pickup until I have finished the shop. Doordash can't complain too much I have gotten stacked orders of a restaurant and a shop, like Walgreens, and they want you to pickup the food first. You just have to be smart and know your area and the places that they are sending you to. We are all about making money and maximizing the most we can get with our times.

However, 90-95% of the previous level of orders weren’t worth taking anyway. I was desperate enough to take a $2.00 order from Chick Filet a half mile. Chick Filet can be fast, especially during non peak hours. I believe the weekend will still be good.

Door-Dash will give you a contract violation by being late just 1 time yet they allow you to literally not complete/delivery 20% of your deliveries. So basically you can get hungry 20% of the time and get away with not delivering those orders.

I've been dashing for right at a month. I rarely, RARELY, see peak pay for the timeframes I'm available. For the market I'm in, and the area I choose to be available in, tips keep me between $19 and $24/hr. I've been dumping offers that are ridiculously low.

Mike.. you are a Superstar!!! thanks so much for all these great videos.. not the best day dashing lol.. started out good and got worse as the day progressed.. lol.. cvs order.. waiting on customer for substitute almost left after no answer calling and texting.. then a reply .. did u ever get a reply after u just left? are we expected to go back after wasting so much time.. another thing happens my phone goes a little nuts and it doesnt show miles i accept and found out i was accepting $6 order for 8 miles ugh.. it was to a Dominos and NO TIP.. cmon man lol.. they should know better :)

The area I like to work in I make $27 to $33 (based on night) an hour using hourly. If per order, $24 to $29. I never schedule and normally don’t get peak pay. I do like that peak pay is coming to hourly dashers as well.

I know which restaurants to avoid on Sunday late afternoon to early evening because they get too busy.

I'm frustrated already with Doordash because my delivery time is being affected by the slow time of the restaurant. I even send notice that the food isn't ready and still get dinged.

Same. Stuff beyond my fault or control gets me dinged even when I notify DD and the customer.

Please don't take $2, $2.50 or $3 orders. You're basically paying to dash. Doordash in my market is now hiding apartment numbers and hoping you don't know it's an apartment. You don't get the apt number until you hit "food picked up." Memorize your apt addresses so you know for sure.

Worst restaurants: Jack in a Box, Wendy’s, yes food court cause you have to find a park and walking long distances. McD here has got very good at have the food ready. Also if the dining room of McD is closed, I call them and tell them I’m at the third window…they love that cause most times they are short handed in the morning or anytime the dining room is closed!!!😊

You can also make 2,500 grand as a dasher when you get the master software . Your question should be how to get the master software 4:26

Doordash can give you extra money for super long wait times. Not guaranteed, but I recently got an extra $5 for waiting about 30 minutes at a restaurant. I know, ridiculous. I complained to doordash and they realized there was a discrepancy between the times in the app and the times the restaurant had. Other dashers that waited almost as long just canceled, but I waited and complained. In this instance the squeaky wheel got the grease.

My base pay in my area is ALWAYS $2 or $2.25! In what area is getting $10! 🤔 I don't believe it! 🤣

I’ve learned how to take Instacart and doordash at the same time. It’s taken a while to learn what’s worth it in order to keep both delivery times and windows happy and I make at least $20-$30 an hour

I multi app with 3 different apps to make $30/hr. The order pickups and drop offs have to be in and around the same location, otherwise it doesn't work. I do have to decline a lot of offers in order to receive such offers. And sometimes I don't get them so I only have the single order. If I am able to fit in 1-3 stack orders on different apps (in a 3 hr shift), that's when I make $30/hr. On a single app it is usually $25/hr during dinner rush.

I don't see drop off locations when I get orders that's why I never know if they are in opposite direction or not. So I just go on mileage. And if the restaurant are closish

Would like to get your take on Dasher professionalism. The other day I went to a Chik Fil A to pick up an order. I parked my car in a designated space. Another driver decided it was OK to park and sit in their car in the lane immediately AFTER the pickup window. I found this to be both rude to other customers picking up their orders and basically too lazy to park adequately. Amazing what some food delivery people will do.

Are u sure the restraunt didnt ask them to park there so they didn't have to go far to take them their food when it was ready

McDonalds drive thru is the worst, you are there forever, the food ends up being cold, you arnt happy, the customer isnt happy. I rarely do it.

Thank you for this video I learned a lot

I don’t know what I’m doing wrong but I make an average of $10-15 per hour. Most deliveries I get are $6.50 for about 4-5 miles. BUT for being in Las Vegas, I NEVER get orders back to back even though it’s a 24 hr city. I’ve never seen a challenge, I don’t have the pay by order option, most order aren’t more than $8. RARELY get $10+ orders. Idk man. It’s crazy.

It’s probably because you’re in Vegas and the market is so oversaturated especially with traffic and everything else
