Yeah, once you take away rental and tax you’re earning minimum wage or slightly above. Whilst risking damaging the van a loosing 1 weeks worth of pay in a matter of seconds.
i know its boring but if u made some sandwiches an a drink ...save £5 a day at greggs,obv cost max £2 at home...but over a year you d save approx £1500 ...get a nice holiday for that
Hi sorry i know this is a late reply but what have things come to that we work hard, often for long hours and we have to stop spending £5 a day to feed ourselves. I have friends in low paid jobs that cycle to work, at 5am, in all weathers to save the bus fares. That's just crazy.
if is 300 parcels, 180 stops average for 130£ a day- tax definitely not worth it and how long would that take to deliver about 12 hours ? I think dpd pays better and who is paying for petrol?
Nah that’s why you need to finish it fast as possible. I use to earn £250 per day. Because I would finish my main route in 2-3 hours and then went and helped other drivers for extra money. Which would take like another 2-3 hours. So I would make £250 for like 5-6 hours work. If you slow then this job ain’t worth the money.
@ ignore this guy, you can earn decent money if you quick at it. The more parcels you do, the more you earn and do it quick. If you slow then you won’t simple.
Just started amazon deliveries with a company that provides the vans, self employed working 5 days, 560 a week, its nice not having bosses so to speak, obviously things are still expected of you but im enjoying being on the road, cant say ill do it forever but for now its goood
@@Jimmy3305 that’s lies then 🤣 but I done Amazon for 5 years, using prime vans. Never heard of any dsp to charge you for a van. Only the none prime ones because you get take them ones home because you pay for it. No one else pays for the prime vans. Unless his dsp is ripping him off 🤣
Oh, dear, I had to pay a rent of 241 per week for van rental!!! from rental company forced me to do so by UKED while working for AMAZON and 4 days working only! UKED!!!!!
This is why a system like DPD's where you get paid per stop, and where distance driven is taken into account, is much better. The more you deliver, the more you earn.
@@MrRohanUK Haha, doorstepping was virtually required on some of the routes we operated sadly. The system learns, so once a route gets doorstepped a number of times the route will start inflating until you have no choice but to doorstep.... Quite sad really, and resulted in a lot of concessions
11:40 heck no, if you gotta stop in the street, stop in the street. you got a job to do :P at least where I live, there is a legal difference between "parking" and "stopping". parking is obviously wrong, but stopping can be anything brief like letting someone out, picking someone up, or making a quick delivery. if i know im going on a street where i likely gotta stop and block traffic, i just get all my packs for that street lined up so i can be as fast as possible. i dont want to make people wait but i also dont want to wrap around and drive down the same street 6 times
I pull up on curb and stick hazards on, i used to wrap around being considerate when I first started but now I don't give a fuck I've got a job to do and all these people are probably going home so they can bloody wait a few mins or drive around me
Amazon prime branded vans are all the same dimensions. If a DSP requires you to have an LWB then this would be at your own van or renting one at your own expense. Ideally, you want to join a dsp with a van provided so you don't have to worry about maintenance insurance etc
I've had to go down countryside lanes in articulated low loaders full with tarmac plant machinery & 21 ton 360` excavators to private houses & holiday parks what should I do say no?
Fair play lad dunno how you do it. Was working for DX for a few years had about 60 to 70 stops but countryside. Respect anyone doing this many stops i couldnt pay isnt enough either
You didn’t mention how many hours it was, I just want to know how many hours it took earn the routes pay… What time you start, and what time you finish, on average?
The route is 9 hours long, if you finish before that you don’t need to work up to the 9 hour point. Loading and van checks is probably another 30 minutes. Start times vary completely between companies. One company could start 9am another could start at 12pm
Have your routes ever gone over 9 hours ? And if so do they pay more . DSP advertising locally at £156 a day but you have to supply a van . Where do you get a van on a day rate ?
not worth it also DPD doesnt pay per parcel they pay per stop so if some stps have 10 parcels, they only pay £1 for that entire delivery. And you know everytime somebody order multiple bags of soil/cat litter all that heavy shit
Hello Mate I'm a amazon driver as well I do it in Birmingham what group are you with I'm with uk express we get £180 a day plus a bit towards the fuel and they pay you daily as well
I rent a van but yh a white vauxhall vivaro it hurts a bit cos one of the days work pays the van rent and I don't know and yh 180 is the rate my dsp uk express pay and do you follow the route in amazon's sequence or do it in your own order I do it my own way cos I find with doing it in amazon's order you end up on the same road more than once
@@darrennorgrove8734 I’ve reported the routing many times, as have other drivers however Amazon states that it’s for “backtracking” which encourages reattempts so it seems they won’t change the routing
The only thing amazon change is the number of stops on the routes n it's always more lol and a lot of drivers at my depot do the same as me and do the route in the order I want to instead of following amazon's order sometimes I do stop say 135 first and the last stop I do will be stop 27 and I don't really do my re attempts I just go on flight mode go on itinerary press problems hit re attempt and just mark it as customer not home again lol n give it the de brief
Did you have a route today ? I was on the 10:10am wave loaded got to my first stop about 11am had 168 stops and was done for just after 4pm one of them days everything went smoothly lol well I say 168 stops but with the multi stops it was more like 185 cos the way I see it if you got a multi stop at 3 different houses that's 3 stops really
Good video mate 👍 i was a bin man round your area and a bus driver just have to park your van and do the best you can as long as you don't get verbally abuse it ok been there done that i mite try for a job there soon are there jobs there all the time? Keep up the good work and go safely mate 👍
Love the videos mate. I got offered an Amazon position but it’s a 11am start 8pm finish. Way too late. Also how do you handle your taxes being self employed?
You have to do a self assessment mate. When you join the DSP they will offer you like an invoicing company which you pay weekly and they take care of all your taxes but it’s optional. I don’t use them.
@@MrRohanUK Im from Birmingham I was working the at the dsp here not only did we not get paid enough but we used to be getting too many stops I remember one day I had 216 and no help
Why do some of you leave parcels on the front door when there are safer places?? I have 3 bins at the side of my house where parcels could be left yet some drivers leave my parcel at the front door for everyone to see?? 😩
Just finished at Amazon myself after 18 months of work. Couple of things ive noticed 1) Your DSPs vans are in MUCH better condition that any of the vans my DSP operated 2) Your routes (and i of course know that routes vary) appear much more organised and well though out, and in many ways easier than ones i regulared. Obviously route difficulty is subjective, and i dont mean it in a way to take anything away from the work you do, its just interesting to see the difference based on the area or station you operate at.
@@mac2135 yeah our routes are very easy compared to others and in our dsp if damage vans you get charged for them and if it’s a repetitive thing you just won’t get any work
@@MrRohanUK where I operate all the vans are absolutely battered and the insides are disgusting and full of rubbish under all the seats, my first day training with someone they said say the van is okay on the inspection on the flex app because if we did it properly none of the vans would be allowed out, they do let anyone with a licence drive and it's people who simple cannot. Don't get me wrong I'm enjoying the job its better money than what I was on but it's embarrassing driving around for this company the state the vans are in
