I've done uber eats bike deliveries in downtown Sacramento ever since November of 2021. So far I've completed 180 deliveries and have a 96 percent satisfaction rate, all while delivering via mountain bike. I don't regret the work, for earning freelance money and working out at the same time feels so accomplishing!

Here is your biggest issue. You are not being selective of which orders you take. Have a minimum amount you will deliver for. $4.50 orders shouldn't even be considered. I have well over 2k deliveries on DD and another 1k plus on Uber eats. I didn't even consider an UE or DD order if it was less than $6.50 and more than 3 miles. You are on a bike your range should be much less than a cars range. Acceptance rate DOES NOT MATTER on either app. My acceptance on DD was constantly fluctuating between 10%-40%. Don't take the first order that pops up if its garbage pay. The only thing that matters for these app is completion rate, on time, and your overall rating.

Your advice to him is a bit faulty----I don't know about the other apps because I don't work them..but Uber has done away with the radius of bikers basically. Cars are also given priority for orders. Just because you're a biker doesn't mean your orders are going to "make sense" for a biker...and often cars are getting orders you'd think a biker should have. You have to now COMPETE with the cars that are working in your area and be that much more fast and efficient in order to make money.

How many dollars a day do you make?

You're also competing with other deliverers in a busy area, so if you arrive a day and don't get requests it is best to deliver at times when there isn't many drivers out, like odd hours or late night shifts.

@DakotaEthridge

Makes sense!

I find it easier when multiapping if I get a doordash order I will log out of uber eats. And once delivery is done I will toggle back on uber eats. Or if I get uber order I will pause doordash until uber order is complete.

From my expierence doing uber and door dash (Denver home town :D) Uber keeps me busy for the most part where i dont have to multiapp as much. Door dash comes in handy when the day is slow but need to make money. Depending on the day i choose to do shopping but only if the miles are right with the pay but more importantly if its only a couple of items. Less time more trips more money.

@@eduard8343 really depends honestly. If it's on bike you're limited to your stamina. If on ebike obviously per range on battery. On scooter well until you get tired of working. I'd say on bike anywhere from 100-200 but don't recommend 12 hours. On ebike easily 100-150 during lunch rush. So more if you stay out all day. I'm assuming more with a scooter since here if the engine is aller than 49cc you can technically ride on the bike lanes so it's easier to move around.

This is my personal opinion. I think both the apps know what you're doing on both apps. For example uber eats no when you're probably getting ordered from door dash. The reason why came up with this example is because I noticed when. Get On a ride sharing app like Uber or lyft. I noticed the prices tend to be very high in the morning sometimes. As soon as I choose lyft and I check on Uber. I know it's the price go down.. Which basically means they know what you're doing on each app. I think the same thing go for Uber Eats and doordash. I feel like Uber knows when you get an order on doordash. So they automatically start sending you good deals and orders. The whole thing sounds complicated. But I hope you understand.
