    I think McDonald's being on UberEats is what kills it, at least for me. I had a REAL restaurant say you Uber? There it is bye. That was $100 worth of food. McDonald's wants you to come in and sign for it. Like those fries are coming out of the vault 😂😂😂

    • @munchkym
      @munchkym  6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Hahah definitely depends on your McDonalds. Mine have never had me sign for it. But I bet McDonalds is much more likely to have theft than a nicer restaurant so that doesn't surprise me.

    • @DJBDuBB219
      @DJBDuBB219 6 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      I got banned from 1 of 2 24/7 McDonald's because I refused to sign for the order, and better yet, followed uber's explicit instructions to NOT sign for anything anywhere for any reason.

    • @tomcastelli6890
      @tomcastelli6890 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I find this depends on the specific McDonalds location. I’ve never had to sign for a McDonalds Uber Eats order. One location had a sign out sheet for Uber Eats orders, but they did not make me sign for the order - what’s the point of having a sign out sheet if you don’t use it? I thought that it was because that McDonald’s might have had bad reviews with Eats or a lot of wrong orders or undelivered orders or something. Who knows. I didn’t check.

    • @Poorstargazer23
      @Poorstargazer23 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Lol, just started uber eats near the university in my city. The McDonald's gets so many uber eats orders just leave them on the counter to be picked up. They give zero fucks.
      Lucky, it seems, because of the first trips I've done, most have been to that very McDonald's and then across the street to the dorms.

    The part I enjoyed the most of Uber eats was discovering restaurants that I had no idea existed! I will only do Uber eats now if it's really slow and if the restaurant is 5 minutes or closer. Best time to do it though is during weekend or holiday boost! The payouts are much now worth it then!

      Definitely depends on your market. My market my Uber passengers tip 40%. Eats is much lower, though.

    • @glennfromiowa
      @glennfromiowa 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Definitely depends on the market. I've gotten a $10 tip on Uber eats. Generally, Uber eats tips just a little bit less and less often than Uber, but it's still decent.

    Wait staff in the United States are always paid in accordance with the minimum wage, as the difference between their fixed hourly wage and the federal minimum is ultimately compensated by either tips and/or the employer if tips prove inadequate to cover that difference.

    I figured out one strategy that works out really well, I live less then a mile from a lot of popular restaurants in my area and start out the day by accepting requests from those restaurants that are the most closest and if the delivery takes me across town near a McDonald's then after dropping off my delivery then I will wait for pings from that McDonald's, a person just needs strategy and also needs to know their market to make money on ubereats

  • @tomcastelli6890
    @tomcastelli6890 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Found you from a link you left in an FB post! I’m signed up to do Uber Eats and Postmates (and more recently GrubHub). I only do Eats and not regular passenger Uber. I noticed in your Uber video you said to have both apps open. I wonder if I can do that for Postmates.
    Also worth noting for people who watch this - my current 9-5 job situation has me in a different city during the work week than the city where I live. I wanted to deliver in both areas but Uber makes you pick one. Customer service says you can’t do both. So I picked where I work since I’m there more often. I think this is true for GrubHub as well but I just signed up for them and picked my home city since they JUST started running here (UberEats and Postmates aren’t here yet but they are in a very nearby city). Postmates lets you deliver in any city in which they operate once you sign up so I can do both.
    I also just signed up for Amazon Flex, which also makes you pick ONE city... but I haven’t delivered for them so we’ll see how that goes.
    Overall, I like Uber Eats better than Postmates since I get more deliveries with Eats and Postmates has a smaller area in the city where I work. I haven’t driven for GrubHub yet as I’ve just signed up. Now that I know I can have both apps open that opinion may change.
    Regarding the insulated bag. Uber Eats says they supply one, but the Greenlight Center in my work city is in an inconvenient place, Uber doesn’t tell you you have to pay for it, and when I went to the Greenlight Center they were out of them! So I contacted customer service and they have a link to buy by mail. Postmates sent me a free bag when I signed up. Grubhub is allegedly sending me a shirt to wear while delivering but I have not gotten it yet.
    Most of the time, the bag I have is too small to fit the orders, which are usually in the restaurants own bags. I like that McDonald’s puts sticker seals on their orders. The fact that most places use their own bags seems to make the insulated bag a bit unnecessary, and I’m ALWAYS fumbling with it... for both of my bags. Also, the bag is not large enough for pizzas. What bag do you use? I may have to look into getting a different/better one.
    I’ve had customers ask me how to tip in Uber Eats. This is why it’s important to order for yourself before delivering for the first time - it’s not intuitive how to tip a driver! You have to go into the app after the delivery.
    A lot of times, particularly with apartment buildings, it’s difficult to find the right building or see the house numbers in the dark. Customers rarely leave their apartment number. When delivering to a hotel, very often the front desk will not allow you to deliver directly to the room (even if the customer leaves a room number). My biggest complaint with Eats is hard to find customer drop off sites.

    You were perfect. Explained all about the business and had a nice happy attitude. Question about the tip. With UBEREATS a delivery fee of between 3.99 and 6.99 is charged and I don't feel an additional tip is required? Your thoughts. On Uber rides again a ride fee is being charged so I don't tip additionally.

    • @munchkym
      @munchkym  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you so much!
      UberEats you absolutely should tip extra. The driver is only paid a small fee and it is truly abysmal. Most drivers are barely making minimum wage and Uber takes up to 80% of what you pay. I'm not even kidding. Most of the time, they take 40%. The driver is not seeing much.

    I am researching & considering trying Uber Eats. Your mention of a hot/cold bag touched on one of my questions since I live in the Philly area. Are there particular type, shape & size bags I should buy? I looked on eBay & saw a few types, and figure one should be a pizza type bag.

      I haven't done a lot of UberEATS so I don't have a good breakdown, but some numbers I've seen from drivers in my market is like $21/hour for EATS and $29/hour for Uber. Every market will be different, every driver will see different results, hours will impact it, but hopefully that helps!

    No! Uber Eats is not worth it.
    Waste of time! Low pay! Long waits. Your blamed by customer if order is wrong. Customer hard to find at night. Uber Eats pays you for one delivery when have you delivering two yet Uber got paid twice.
    My recommendation dont waste your time with Uber Eats. Its not worth it.

    It depends....if I'm on a quest, (a certain amount of trips in a certain amount of time) then I'm more interested in the the trips than the actual distance of the dropoff from the restaurant. In this case, McDonald's is welcome because the dropoffs are usually close by. Also, if you're working on a guaranteed hourly (2 trips per hour for $14/hr etc. then McDonald's is good.

    Good video and advice, and really good topic on servers and wages because they don't get paid minimum wage or if they do it's averaged out for the week .
    Vetted process 😉 Uber doesn't really have a vetting process as in training. One popular complaint from riders is the language barrier.
    And you would be surprised at how many of these driver's drop off riders at the wrong location because "following gps only in combination with lack of English"
    One rider didn't know the area that well and got dropped off in the different town haha.

    My favorite Uber Eats experience didn't involve me directly. The drunk in the other unit of my duplex apparently ordered a pizza then passed out. The poor delivery guy was pounding and shouting at about 11:30 PM. I went out to console him, and considered taking the pizza myself. But since it was pepperoni (which I don't eat) I suggested he just leave it out for the raccoons. He did. And the next morning, sure enough, the pizza had obviously been ravaged by tiny beasts.

    This video covered pickup, drop off, tips, but not taxes which is a HUGE part of this job. UberEats is miscellaneous pay, so if you’re not putting aside money for taxes, at the end of the year all that money you got from UberEats is basically paid back as taxes. To do this right, you need to be keeping track of your mileage, vehicle expenses (car insurance, gas, repairs, tires), phone bill etc to lower your taxable income for the year as stated on Uber’s website. Uber drivers are also given access to Quickbooks Self Employed which allows drivers to pay quarterly taxes instead of a lump sum at the end of the year. Paying taxes 4x a year hurts a lot less than one big chunk

      In Los Angeles uber adds a $5 miscellaneous wait fee, but you have to have waited at least 15 minutes. After the order is delivered , you need to send a support message to uber eats support about the delivery and the long wait time. (Make sure you contact uber EATS support, not regular uber rides support) a few hours and uber eats support will add 5$ to the delivery. So I just,wait if I'm at McDonald's i don't get upset, I kinda encourage waiting because I know I'm getting add $5 to the delivery. I'm not sure if this available in every market tho, it's worth trying it out tho

      Some markets do. If the order isn't ready, I click "order not ready". In my market, after 10 minutes, I go into the trip and complain about a problem with the fare. I tell them the name of the restaurant, how long I waited, and give them any facts (like they didn't start the order until I arrived)
      Uber then sends me a $5 wait fee. I don't know if they charge the restaurant or what. But, I always get the money.
