    I been a Dasher for 5 years don’t sweat it. Do a good job just pick it up and get it there. Don’t worry about your time just get the job done. After a few thousand delivery’s you can find about anything with delivering. When you use your bags other than pizza orders seat belt your orders. So they don’t move just in case. Also your dasher pizza bag can double for a larger order red bag so useful not only for just pizza. Good luck hun and stay safe!

    @@gorjesOnce you told the app that you couldn’t contact the customer, you lost the ability to do what the above poster suggested. What you could’ve done was to instead, text the customer with pictures of the order at their door, and Marla’s delivered. Works until it doesn’t, and when it doesn’t, you’ll get a contract violation from DD for skirting the delivery instructions. If it’s a “Hand it to me” delivery, regardless of whether they’ve changed their mind about the delivery method, you’re really supposed to hand it to them. Some customers have porch cats that I’d never leave an order alone. It’s to you, it doesn’t happen very often, 5 minutes can save you a CV. My 2¢ 😢

    @@gorjesI always give drivers specifics that let the know which is my house because my house originally was my lot and a side lot. So my neighbor on that side is 105, my empty lot is considered 107 and my house is 109. Before I started giving better directions, I would see all the come to the stop sign in front of my house, stop then go on by. At that time, I’d step out and wave but if I was delivering, I’d hesitate too.

    Haha your gas is cheap! Here it is almost $5 a gallon. I used to do gig work. I wouldn’t do it again, especially with gas prices the way they are, I also never did doordash. I did Postmates once and gave up. What I will say though, if you have it in your area Amazon flex is way better. You can choose routes to deliver packages or Whole Foods orders. I used to do the Whole Foods ones. There is little down time and it is all leave at the door. You also get tipped decently, but Amazon will also pay you a bit. If your looking for a side hustle I recommend that over Doordash.

    Hey, don't take this the wrong way, I'm not criticizing you or anything, but you may want to consider censoring the address + names of your customers, either in this video or in future videos. That first one in particular you gave the customer's name and pretty much their whole address. It's not a huge deal, but most of the time I see dasher YT channels censor either or both of those. Likely as a just in case one of the customers finds out and complains. It could be a headache for you.

    Doordash is a terrible company. You will make decent money in the beginning. Then the algorithm sends only trash. Quit for a month, come back... and you might make fair money for a week or two. Doordash does not want full time people. They want high turnover.
