    Thank you so much for taking your time to explain how door dashing works. Haven't started, I'm a little nervous, but will start soon. Thanks, for the tips and tricks on how to make more money.

    As a dasher I find that the wealthy areas tip around the same but take longer because of the gated communities. I now avoid those areas

    • @mizzbambam2008
      @mizzbambam2008 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I don't know the area well enough to know what's what but gates whether houses or Apts are a pain!! I never understand why they won't include the codes. One community I was in took forever to get out because the exit gate doesn't automatically open. I'm driving around to look for another gate thinking maybe it's not an exit gate and theres one on the other side or something.... nope I needed a different code to get out. Luckily I had to call to get in (cause sometimes you can go through if it's already open) but since I had delivered the order, their info disappeared. And because it was only about 10-20 houses ain't no telling how long I would have been locked in waiting for someone to enter or leave 😩😩

      @cocacolafiesta 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You are correct. My sister and I are both signed up for UberEats but going to sign up for Door Dash too, and we have found that the time it takes to travel up the steep hills, into gated communities that our tips are not that much greater and the hill climbing uses more gas! These areas for the most part do not have other businesses that will return us with orders back to regular civilization so in essence we are getting paid half from our $2+ a mile so it actually becomes $1 a mile to return. With the "work smarter, not harder" concept we will not be delivering to those areas unless it pays $3.50-$4 a mile.

      It’s changed the wealthy people to know because you’re going to a non red line district You’re still gonna accept An order was no tip in hopes that they give you a cash tip!!!! In return usually it’s no tip and maybe an angel number tip like 1.11 2.22 3.33

    Doordash Ubers drivers and other's need to be investigated for warrant's felonies child molesters, who are coming straight to our doors, in Arizona they come from other states to start over and have a job immediately next day, this needs to stop, don't trust doordash, Ubers and other's, Uber doordash is a hideaway for people with record's. They don't care who they send to our doors.

    I just started dashing today. My first order was Taco Bell. They wouldn't let me pick up the order without a hot bag. Had to go to 5 stores to find one and it made me an hour late for my delivery. Not a great start to my door dash rating.

    • @mizzbambam2008

    can you cover delivering to certain places for example hospitals I had to deliver to a hospital and it was horrible they wanted me to go the the emergency room there was absolutely no parking and the direction said hand it to me and I was waiting for 15 min and eventually had to leave the food at the emergency room counter registration

    • @BEAUTYFUL18

    That’s a great video. Thank you for stating that you need to pay taxes. A lot of videos don’t tell you that, they just tell you, “this is the max you can make.” Well it’s max but not when you haven’t paid your taxes. I drove through Skip many years ago, it wasn’t bad. Having to pay for your own bags at $75.00CDN was not worth it But you can make some money on this, I would never suggest someone doing this as a full time job. The amount of wear, tear, gas on your vehicle would be huge. If you’re doing it here and there, yeah, could be a good side hustle.

Also, I'm confused on how to let DoorDash know when and where to send me deliveries..should I drive to a hot location and sit and wait or should I check the app to somehow request deliveries from certain areas?? What is the process?? Thanks!
