I don’t accept any offers where the mileage is more than the money and I definitely don’t accept any offers where the total time is more than 25 mins. If drivers band together to stop this madness from delivery apps.
In the past 4 years it’s decreased so SO FAR. Doesn’t help that our current administration is letting in illegals by the assload. Who are all signing up for these apps and just abusing the shit out of it. Which also makes us decent folk look like trash because they walk in talking to their countries and shove a phone in the worker’s faces without so much as a “Hey, how are you?”
I started complaining to the uber chat support I gotta do something while waiting a half hour for one hotdog. If we all do that they will figure out we are upset
every restaraunt says 5 minutes? It takes over 20 minutes>>> I yell at the restaraunt. Im not an employee and they can screw off. I wait till its done and then take my dog for a 20 minute walk while they wait for ME If I waspaid to WAIT Id be more polite. Screw all these restaraunts who say 5 minute wait. its always WAAAAY longer than 5 minutes and im not paid to wait.
If you are not a full time UE deliverer or if you do not depend on UE for living, I would suggest skipping the bad orders...you would rather save gas by ignoring the bad orders. My personal rule of thumb is I would only accept orders on which the pay is at least twice the mileage
I swear apartment buildings in the US are horrible. Are those building numbers and range of apartment numbers for said building EVER lit up properly at night? You would think the builders could afford to light up some numbers on buildings.......
Something I think architects hate delivery drivers. I have been to condominiums where the building numbers seem to have been placed randomly all over the place, so you're looking for building 6, and you already passed number 5, and then the next one on the road is 3 and after that there is 9... you have to drive around looking for the right one.
The issue isn’t even the non tippers, it’s the fact that Ubereats and DoorDash are so expensive. 5 McChickens and a coke in person cost around 23 dollars. With Ubereats or dash you’re getting charged 10-18 dollars including tip.
7:00 I like to tie the two handles of plastic bags together instead of leaving them loose. I just feel like it gives the impression of the delivery being more secure.
Yea, a year or 2 ago it was really good, now so many people doing it now. And i think cause people be making these videos saying how easy it is and how much money they were making. Now everyone and they brother, uncle, sister's cousins friend is doing gig work lol plus everything so expensive. Pay like $30 just for a burger meal to be delivered. To much saturation and high price killed gig work
The entire model is based around part time deliveries to supplement your income being made by people taking a delivery or two while they are already out running around town doing other errands. It was never intended to offer 3rd party contractors any means of "Full Time Work."
@@Gdafu866jds I'm talking about the DD model from their corporate perspective. DD never intended to outsource their offers to full time couriers, they were imagining everyday people just taking odd deliveries here and there. This is why over time, the market is just getting saturated with more and more drivers. They don't stop once they have enough active drivers to support a market, they just keep adding more drivers nonstop.
0:56 Ah, bro that shi is the worst lmao. I always avoid putting the food right in front of the screen/security door. As someone who both drives and orders alot, not being able to open the door without knocking over the food is the worst. Even lost a drink one time because of it. I noticed a lot of drivers do this and I just assume they don't order that much themselves because they never see what happens when the customer tries to retrieve it lmao. Personally, when I deliver leave at door orders, I try to leave it on the side of the screen/security door with the handle so that all they have to do is crack the door to retrieve it.
I haven't ever done one that low, I always try to accept orders that time wise, add up to $15-20 an hour, sometimes it ends up being more, or sometimes I'll take less if it takes me back to where I want to be. But the idea that the app even lets people place those orders is completely braindead. But what does UE care? If they make 50 cents for automated work, they're gonna' do it...
I think Uber is counting on people being desperate (likely not sending them anything even 1/2 way decent for a long time), so that they take the orders that aren't worth even starting your engine for. If there's no takers they stack the crap. I'm seeing duel orders put up for $5, to p/u, and deliver to/from two locations. In the last couple of weeks it has gotten horrendously bad. Tonight (a Friday night) from 4-8:30 I had only made $27, I worked till 10pm (that's 6 hrs), and made $40 ttl..
My problem with Uber eats is arguably worse where you see what I call reverse orders were you see something like $5 for 10 whole miles or $4 for 6miles
Uber's base pay is entirely made up by estimated time not miles. A 30 minute 10 mile offer through the backstreets will pay you roughly the same as a 30 minute 20 mile offer that's all freeway driving.
I did Uber Eats back in 2017 and now I'm back to it, after losing a job. It has become a lot worse. Is not just that the orders pay less now (and gas prices went up) but the app's GPS is lagging and freezing all the time. Sometimes it makes me drive a couple of blocks in the wrong direction before it corrects itself and tells me to make a U-turn. Sometimes it tells me to turn when I already passed the spot. It makes you waste a lot of time.
I thought i was the only one who noticed this. I almost got in trouble with Uber for trying to deliver an order that was going off map wildly into a fucking wooded area. I finally said fuck it for the night and cancelled. Uber is such shit.
my app makes me route via u turns and sidestreets instead of just driving down the main road. Im old, so im clueless but the map is 4 inches and if I expand it to see where im going it immediately shrinks back?
I always just use Google maps unless I'm delivering to an apartment complex, the. I switch to the in app GPS when I'm in the area. I've wasted so much time fighting with the damn thing it's aggravating
It’s either feast or famine depending on who you talk to. Some are saying how food delivery sucks now and how you’ll only make below minimum wage…while others are saying they make $2,000 a week. I think it depends on the person & where they live.
Those $2000 a week people are the ones that put in INSANE hours. It used to be possible a few years ago to make that in 40 to 50 hours, but not these days.
Nobody is making $2000/week routinely; you're talking about 0.01% of less of drivers in the past 4 years that could maybe pull that off for 2-3 weeks in a row consecutively. Plus, these drivers are intentionally leaving out (fuel costs) to make their job look better than it does. It's amazing how people will continue to work for horrible pay, just so they can make it look like their doing well on social media. It shows you how addicted people are.
@@vladimirofsvalbard9477 It’s possible in the right market, and if you’re doing it on a scooter vs a car…and even then you’re probably doing 10-12hr shifts 7 days a week. The majority of people aren’t willing to put in those kind of hrs. So for most people, it’s a side hustle they do after their regular job or on weekends.
This is why i only like to deliver around 6pm cause most ppl are home and you only droppin off at houses/apartments but apartments are the worse when you live on the 3rd floor
That is why I actually only did ubereats was they were good paying restaurant orders and could turn it online whenever wanted and just have it online. Now I hardly ever even do it bc of the $2 and $3 orders. The last time I did orders it seemed to always pop a new order as I turned onto the street for the dropoff and it prevents the address for the one that delivering and the screen only will allow the small X to close out without accepting the offer. It seemed to do that on 3 of 4 deliveries which seemed to me that it is designed to have you accept the offer since already about to drop off the current 1 or typing in the field closing out the current delivery. Had that happen as was typing and so caused me to cancel the order bc was not going to deliver 8 miles for $2.58
Uber eats is no longer giving refunds for paid items never received. They instead will now gaslight you and insist you did receive your full order and reject the request for a refund.
my man knows his dollar per hour, respect. Major tip if you aren't already aware: uber has hidden "main drivers" for both areas and time slots. It takes about 5-7 days of delivering at the same times to be pushed to those spots. You become one of the first in the queue for getting good orders. They also prefer people to stay on LONGER shifts. I believe this was about a year or so ago, I highly doubt this is no longer around. Its extremely effective. Combine that with multiapping and I was easily getting 20-30/hr. My biggest tip was 50$ for a small white castle order. The silliest order I ever seen was mcdonalds for a napkin and a single spoon. No lie, bananas.
Well done this is an honest video imho, most people make up fairytales about this ish and mislead people perhaps, but this is really sort of on average what it is sort of like perhaps. Props for being honest man.
I do Ubereats in my city of Toronto, Ontario the rates have been really bad since the beginning of the year comparison to last year the graph keeps declining I use to be making $20 now it’s at $11 and it keeps getting worse every week.
I've been experimenting and started taking subpar orders usually less than a $1 mile and uber will add on a second order that's usually better than the one I have like 60 to 70% of the time. uber has been adding orders all throughout the trip this past month, they didn't used to do it once you left the restaurant. He's right about the food being ready
what do you do if it doesnt work/ delay the non tipped order until you catch a fish. Its bass season. they werent tipping anyways. If you catch a bass deliver it to them.
@@PyroFilmsFX i do it full time and make more money and have more freedom than most 9-5's in my town highest 9-5 i have had is 17$ an hour i average 20-25$ an hour doing just doordash when i add uber and instacart into that i can easily make over 200$ a day
Ubereats in my opinion living in LA, CA is like a bike messenger/motorcycle side hustle. For those driving in cars. You’re spending more on gas than what you make on each delivery.
Depending on the situation with a difficult customer and drop off, I will sometimes screenshot all the information I have with regards to the address and send it to them. I almost never have difficulty finding the address, but if I do, it is often something wrong in the app or they did not confirm their address and sending them the screenshot clears that up quickly, or at least provides my side of the story. Sometimes like in your situation, the customers just don’t know how to provide clear, accurate and detailed information. And that always helps 😅😅
I try to stick to my schedule even if I get a bad shift like yours. More often than not I ll have a good one to make up for it soon enough. Food delivery is definatly on the decline in my area though.
schedule= 12 hours a day/ pay= from 6 dollars per 12 hour day up to 200 I have zero control never over 200 for 12 hours= thats way below min wage, ILLEGAL
im gonna have to look back= the app knows im paying rent in a hotel. I think it sent me a dog bone tonight to let me survive= indentured servitude. I think it did it last week too= the customers dont even tip but ill get one huge order- not huge. like 40 bux. Im a poker pro and 40????????
I had my best delivery EVER today/ I show up theres a kid with cash tip in hand, a baby in a diaper walking around. A mom with a pitbull she carries around. KICKASS I treated the kiddo with respect and made it clear im happy with the tip. Had to congratulate mom on how good a job shes doing.
Besides the pay then you have the people who report. I notice McDonald’s orders are usually who report never received. The driver is trying to earn but also trying to not get off the platform for false reports. You want to be picky but this isn’t the same money as the pandemic. Base pay is lowered.
Usually the really low paying orders, are the ones that end up having problems. No-tippers are just difficult people. You will save yourself a lot of problems if you just don't accept and order that's less than $5 overall and $1.5/mile
I started Uber eats cause I’m unemployed I remember ordering on Uber eats in the past and had no idea that tips are the only ways drivers make real money. Customers are paying more for delivery and drivers gets less of profits. I live in a small town and made $210 after 28 hours of being online that’s insane, $160 of that was tips the fare pay is not enough to even cover gas.
A couple things note worthy.... Ubereats 'tacks on' around $2.00 to every order plus their other fees. So basically if you walk into the restaurant and order item number 1and the cost is $16.95, your Uber price is $18.95 (plus fees). Also? The communication between the customer and the driver is lame at best. From what I'm told my other drivers... Notes that show the delivery instructions or even maps are not forwarded to the driver. I'm in an apartment complex, and 90% of the time the driver will spend an extra 5 minutes looking for my apartment even though clear instructions are included in every order. (which they tell me they can't see)
I drive nights .. less traffic , fewer traffic lughts, appreciative customers . Depends where you are , how manh drivers there are , etc etc . Lot faster turnover at night IMO
I was doing pretty good with nights, getting tips bumped up anywhere from .25 cents - $30 on a few of them. But now I feel like UE is messing with me. Tonight, working 6 hrs I did 5 deliveries, drove 44 miles, and barely made over $40! They're just offering me then crap that no one wants. On Weds night that sent me to FOUR different restaurants where the order had already been p/u (all of those were the only decent ones, or should've been). You know how they made it right? They gave me a total of $3!!!!!! Supposedly at Diamond level you're supposed to get better help when you call for support- LMMFAO! They couldn't even tell me why they kept putting these orders up for over an hour after they were picked up...they just keep having multiple drivers showing up to these places for nothing.
I had a horrible doordash day with very difficult orders today 1 to a jail , and then another one at a basketball game at the back of a school for 4 50
Yep. Quit last year after 7 years of UBER and Lyft. First 3 years were great. Shite hit the fan with Covid and even got worse afterwards. Miss talking to folks, hearing their stories and offering encouragement to those who were struggling. I'm retired and feel sorry for everybody who is trying make a living at it.
Yup I rode the wheels off these apps ..it was time for me to get a 9-5pm job . Got tired of killing my car and wasting more money than what I was making
Its a defeating feelin to be willing and able to work and just not get paid min wage. Every normal job you get paid even when its slow. I dont desire slow periods. but i need to be paid for my time.
Bruh you got to be lying 😭. I live in Augusta and I make over $200 - $270 a day. I make over $300 plus a day in Atlanta 12 hours a day. Y'all ain't no hustlers.
I just started with Uber eats about a week ago on the south side (McDonough, mainly) and weekdays are ass. Made about $130 on Friday and Saturday, so I might just use this as a weekend gig.
Enjoyed your content I truly understand how U feel I hate it when customers put forth no effort to help or direct U Its like they want U to stumble Resturants are suppose to make Uber eats a priority U should not have to wait forever Dinner has more action but customers can be very difficult Thanks for sharing Appreciate your honesty when customers give detail instructions they get their order faster and smoother but they act like they cant be bothered or just dont care
Too many drivers. My area has few UE drivers. If I refuse orders they go up. 1st offer was $8. Final offer was $27! 2 pick ups. One was Applebee's. I expected the food to have been made an hour ago. Wrong. They didn't send the restaurant the order until a driver accepted it!
I tried uber eats today and I wasn’t impressed. I declined majority of the orders because they were all over 10+ miles. I also did not know that customers could reduce tips after delivery. Had one guy report his order was damaged and that I wasn’t professional?! Which was not the case at all, and he took his whole $2 tip back 🙄 I do better with doordash.
DoorDash use to be good in my area. Not anymore due to too many drivers and it’s slow. Uber Eats is better in my area. I don’t do breakfast hours until 10:00 am and do it until 2:00 pm. I will no longer do chick filet orders after yesterday. It was slow so I took it.
Had someone in an RV park say we are the 3rd trailer from the back. All i asked was what the RV number was and they proceeded to be condescending and acted like I asked them what gender they were.. 3rd trailer from the back could mean a lot of things depending on the Rv park
Bad tip orders are always the pain in the ass. Yea lately uber is really sucking. I used to make $200 a day in 6 hours now I'm making $100 a day and doing 9 hours a day.
Strangely, in my market, I have found dinner time to be one of the least profitable times of the day. I think it’s because there are just so many drivers out at that time and also so many new drivers driving that it makes it hard to get good orders. From 10:30 AM to 12 PM has been my most profitable.
Yeah. I drove at night when there's probably fewer drivers and the customers are grateful , and the traffic is slower, plus big places like malls are closed so it lessens footwork. Can be annoying if lobby is closed and you get stuck in a slow drive through . But I do other kinds of Uber services too to help fill it in
I do uber once in a blue moon. Because when you order and the driver usually picks up 3, 4, 5 other orders, so my order always comes last and cold, so I just go get it myself, and I'm positively sure that's the case for most people, thinking 2, 3, or 4 times to wait so long.
At least in my market, breakfast and lunch are not really that busy - at least during the week. Dinner time is the only busy time. During weekend brunch it can be busy. I don't like working before dinner time because there is less traffic later on and parking is free throughout the city after 7pm. Typically work from like 5pm to 12am, sometimes outside of those hours on the weekends.
Yeah, it’s sad man, couple of years ago I could make $25-$30 an hour easy, now it’s been overtaken by desperate illegal immigrants who will take any order they can get
@@ZavHustles Exactly I'm in Miami Beach FL and you see five or six of them sitting parked next to IHOP and as soon as an $2.50 order comes in there all over it like flies on $hit
Not true at all. I recently met a guy that does it full time. He showed me his pay in app. He make over $2000 a week, 60-64hrs. He’s even had days where he made $560. He’s a top driver ( whatever that means ), so he gets better orders…$73, $133, etc
Here is the thing about delivery gigs. The first you gotta see is, what area do you live in? Also, what time of day are you doing it, and how many other drivers are doing it the same time. There are some people making 8k a month doing delivery gigs(according to penny hoarder). It comes down to the state you live in and how saturated it is. I think DoorDash has most of the market, but in some areas, other companies could be better. Yes, these gig companies don’t pay well but I still think it is fantastic to have the opportunity to go make money on your terms. It’s great as a job filler as well, as in maybe someone lost their job.
You are right . I am also a part time uber eat driver. I can only made close by $14 to $16 an hours in Chicago. And 50 % of the trip have no tips. Average trip is only $2 per trip . So dump!!!
Literally three days in to Uber Eats and it kinda' blows so far. I'm in South Florida, which you'd think would be decent, but despite being quite picky with orders, 8 hours can get $120 if you're VERY lucky, but that doesn't account for driving a LOT of miles, along with gas. Accounting for those, we're getting hilariously close to Federal minimum wage. Hurts more when you deliver to 7,700 square foot mansions with that amount of pay, and they give only the suggested tip, not a dime more, despite having to be hassled by their guards, etc. Not to mention things like the very long lights here, almost all street miles not highway... My friend said he did this a couple years ago and it was "The easiest $25-35 an hour he ever made, it's free money!" Either his market is insanely good for this, UE is paying a lot less, or he's a lying sack of poop. Maybe all three.?
i do it full time and make more money and have more freedom than most 9-5's in my town highest 9-5 i have had is 17$ an hour i average 20-25$ an hour doing just doordash when i add uber and instacart into that i can easily make over 200$ a day
@@smokinglife8980 That's crazy... I don't know if my market is just weird, but my zones for DoorDash for example are MASSIVE and I wonder if that affects things. It's primarily UberEats here and yesterday I was pretty picky with orders and ended up with $135 in like 9+ hours, and a free meal because someone messed up an address and canceled the order. With some REALLY aggressive multi-apping, on the best day I could squeeze out $20 an hour, but that's an exceptionally good day and $18-19 is usually where it ends up. I am thinking of adding Instacard though, I've heard it can be good. I'm in Palm Beach County, FL. Would you be willing to share your approximate area? I'm curious how markets differ. Got a friend in Kentucky and he's surprised how bad it can be here as well considering it's become such a hot area.
A national drivers strike will fix this issue in an instant! I don't know why the drivers are not doing that. If everyone strikes for one day it will cost the company millions of dollars and they will fix their act immediately
Are you useing the busy areas? Look on your map in the app for busy areas near you.Might need to read all the instructions on order too. I am still figuering things out. Currently out of commision due to getting into an accident I am fault for while on an order. Good luck stay safe. Keep it local. I won't take orders too far away. Keep it under 30 min or less. I'm no pro still novice not sure if I'll keep at it. Stay safe keep it local.
Your only supposed to dash during the peak days of the week and only for dinner. Also uber is just one of a few apps to have open at once not just main app
I don't even mess with it except for Fri-Sun Dinner time. It is dead, otherwise. You cant even guarantee dinner will be good either. It is Sunday now and I started doing deliveries at 3:00 pm. It is now 9:00 pm and I have only made $87.00. I have refused about 100 offers so far and I'm about sick of it for the day. I take this personal when I see offer after offer and they are for 2 and 3 dollars and want you to travel 7 to 10+ miles. God, I just want to slap these cheapskates!
I did uber before COVID while working at FedEx. I was making about 20hr @ FedEx. With Uber I was making about 20-25/hr. My best night was 30/hr. They used to have bonuses all the time, 3$ for every order. Now it's not even worth it, id get around 10-12/hr. Ans to make it worse people don't tip
I've been doing UberEats since May of 2018... Up until early 2021 were the best years. Nowadays I can barely crack $50 a night. I start working as an Amazon DSP in two weeks, it's time to move on. I can't accept low pay outs anymore, but I'll always cherish the early years of UberEats 💯
Im ex ups. I cant do it anymore due to the ups injuries. If you can do it then get a real job so you get insurance and pension and paid if you slip and fall. Of all the 11 years delivering UPS i had my worst night last month in a storm. It was worse than a skating rink and i almost fell every time. and my OWN car got stuck in the snow and beat up.
Question: I see statements that with Uber Eats you can deliver in any US market, but that is NOT the case. I'm in North Carolina and was told yesterday that I can only deliver in this state. To apply in another state will require losing my ability to work on my home turf. I explained the idea of traveling and working to no avail. Thoughts, Anyone?
Thanks, I have doubted that the Uber Support has any idea about this. I may simply need to try it. How was the earning in Myrtle Beach? I also visit there on occasion.
I do Uber eats as a side hustle and it’s not a bad gig …. I do 1 or 2 orders a day and call it a day … make a week in the range of $100-$225 …. I would do more deliveries but I wrk full time so this side hustle does help …..
I just tried it today it’s even worse than that only made $7.23 per hour after spending $30 on gas made $70 for almost 6 hours of driving. One day was enough to test the waters going to just get a regular job a few minutes from the house can make $20 per hour and barely use any gas.
Im retired. So i sit at home with the app on all day. And the phone just rings and rings. But i pick and choose. And i usually make $500 a week (net after i pay for gas). And i use about a half a tank of gas a day So its a cool lil retirement gig since i have a nice pension. 🤷🏽♂️
today was shaping up well. Until the app had a fail and was asking me to go back and re id a person. It took an hour on the customer support line= ruined my day.
8 minute wait to deliver is a joke. I did it once and I looked like one of the youtubes of bad drivers. I swore up a storm and called her a b and all kind of names outside the door. Uber says to NEVER wait over 10 mins for the order but im not adding 8 on top of that. Im paid to deliver not to wait. If they paid normal 65 cents per mile plus min wage while waiting for orders then OK.
I do Grub Hub and started Uber a few months ago. I was shocked at how they could offer such low orders of $2 and $3! Even pick-ups at Walmart for $5 for 40 minute trips!!? Now I see why, they know they have people like you who are desperate and will take it. But, to each his own, guess you have to do what you have to do. I have to make at least $1 a mile at the very least!
Only ok as side hustle, ok to pay off bills, car loan and maybe invest your earnings into stock market index fund, crypto not to make a living out of it alone.
Even during the dinner shift, you’re most likely not going to make much and you’ll be making 1990s minimum wage.. in many cases you will actually be delivering for free. Because the gasoline prices are high. But there is no discussion about what’s creating this? I do this as a side to make extra on the weekends weeknights and something dramatically has changed between the time I started in 2017. I think I have a really good idea what it is, but I’m just wondering what you the video producer this channeland other people think it is
I don’t accept any offers where the mileage is more than the money and I definitely don’t accept any offers where the total time is more than 25 mins. If drivers band together to stop this madness from delivery apps.
Those orders are terrible.
Its better to not even take those and get a 9 to 5

In the past 4 years it’s decreased so SO FAR. Doesn’t help that our current administration is letting in illegals by the assload.

7:00 I like to tie the two handles of plastic bags together instead of leaving them loose. I just feel like it gives the impression of the delivery being more secure.
yep, I do the same. Even with bags that have paper/string handles.
Yea, a year or 2 ago it was really good, now so many people doing it now. And i think cause people be making these videos saying how easy it is and how much money they were making. Now everyone and they brother, uncle, sister's cousins friend is doing gig work lol plus everything so expensive. Pay like $30 just for a burger meal to be delivered. To much saturation and high price killed gig work
Well said. 👍
The entire model is based around part time deliveries to supplement your income being made by people taking a delivery or two while they are already out running around town doing other errands. It was never intended to offer 3rd party contractors any means of "Full Time Work."
@@HeplMeh not really, that's exactly what it is, independent contractor. You can work when and as much as you want
@@Gdafu866jds I'm talking about the DD model from their corporate perspective. DD never intended to outsource their offers to full time couriers, they were imagining everyday people just taking odd deliveries here and there. This is why over time, the market is just getting saturated with more and more drivers. They don't stop once they have enough active drivers to support a market, they just keep adding more drivers nonstop.
When I Started it was Postmates. It was fantastic (made $300-$500 a weekend) now I'll be lucky if I get $300 on a weekend)
0:56 Ah, bro that shi is the worst lmao. I always avoid putting the food right in front of the screen/security door. As someone who both drives and orders alot, not being able to open the door without knocking over the food is the worst. Even lost a drink one time because of it.
I noticed a lot of drivers do this and I just assume they don't order that much themselves because they never see what happens when the customer tries to retrieve it lmao.
Personally, when I deliver leave at door orders, I try to leave it on the side of the screen/security door with the handle so that all they have to do is crack the door to retrieve it.
This is why things will never change because people like this taking these two dollar offers
doesn't even pay for gas, SMH
Exactly! Watching him take those $5 orders makes me sick to stomach
I haven't ever done one that low, I always try to accept orders that time wise, add up to $15-20 an hour, sometimes it ends up being more, or sometimes I'll take less if it takes me back to where I want to be. But the idea that the app even lets people place those orders is completely braindead. But what does UE care? If they make 50 cents for automated work, they're gonna' do it...
@@akrs6398🤢🤮🤧😂😂😂
I think Uber is counting on people being desperate (likely not sending them anything even 1/2 way decent for a long time), so that they take the orders that aren't worth even starting your engine for. If there's no takers they stack the crap. I'm seeing duel orders put up for $5, to p/u, and deliver to/from two locations.
In the last couple of weeks it has gotten horrendously bad. Tonight (a Friday night) from 4-8:30 I had only made $27, I worked till 10pm (that's 6 hrs), and made $40 ttl..
My problem with Uber eats is arguably worse where you see what I call reverse orders were you see something like $5 for 10 whole miles or $4 for 6miles
Good name for them
What stay are you in
Decline those. Also called upside-down orders
Uber's base pay is entirely made up by estimated time not miles. A 30 minute 10 mile offer through the backstreets will pay you roughly the same as a 30 minute 20 mile offer that's all freeway driving.
i get 2 dollars for 26 miles?
I did Uber Eats back in 2017 and now I'm back to it, after losing a job. It has become a lot worse. Is not just that the orders pay less now (and gas prices went up) but the app's GPS is lagging and freezing all the time. Sometimes it makes me drive a couple of blocks in the wrong direction before it corrects itself and tells me to make a U-turn. Sometimes it tells me to turn when I already passed the spot. It makes you waste a lot of time.
im soryy bout that. if u dont mind me asking what was your job? im currently looking for a job been hard to find one good one anything helps
I thought i was the only one who noticed this. I almost got in trouble with Uber for trying to deliver an order that was going off map wildly into a fucking wooded area. I finally said fuck it for the night and cancelled. Uber is such shit.
my app makes me route via u turns and sidestreets instead of just driving down the main road. Im old, so im clueless but the map is 4 inches and if I expand it to see where im going it immediately shrinks back?
I always just use Google maps unless I'm delivering to an apartment complex, the. I switch to the in app GPS when I'm in the area. I've wasted so much time fighting with the damn thing it's aggravating
@@ephemeralbro I do that sometimes, but running the Uber app and Google Maps at the same time makes them crash or overheats the phone.
It’s either feast or famine depending on who you talk to. Some are saying how food delivery sucks now and how you’ll only make below minimum wage…while others are saying they make $2,000 a week. I think it depends on the person & where they live.
Those $2000 a week people are the ones that put in INSANE hours. It used to be possible a few years ago to make that in 40 to 50 hours, but not these days.
@@JSC178 Okay boo hoo. ya have to work 60-70 hrs now to make $2,000.
Nobody is making $2000/week routinely; you're talking about 0.01% of less of drivers in the past 4 years that could maybe pull that off for 2-3 weeks in a row consecutively.
Plus, these drivers are intentionally leaving out (fuel costs) to make their job look better than it does.
It's amazing how people will continue to work for horrible pay, just so they can make it look like their doing well on social media. It shows you how addicted people are.
@@vladimirofsvalbard9477 It’s possible in the right market, and if you’re doing it on a scooter vs a car…and even then you’re probably doing 10-12hr shifts 7 days a week. The majority of people aren’t willing to put in those kind of hrs. So for most people, it’s a side hustle they do after their regular job or on weekends.
One group is telling you the truth and one group are simply content creators lying for views.
This is why i only like to deliver around 6pm cause most ppl are home and you only droppin off at houses/apartments but apartments are the worse when you live on the 3rd floor
Not sure what's up with Uber?..alot of 2 and 3 dollar offers. It was amazing when I first started.
Same. I remember really good orders. Now all crap.
@@Lighting21159 Remember those back to back to back $15 to $20 orders during covid? Those were the days! The promos were hella good too.
That is why I actually only did ubereats was they were good paying restaurant orders and could turn it online whenever wanted and just have it online. Now I hardly ever even do it bc of the $2 and $3 orders. The last time I did orders it seemed to always pop a new order as I turned onto the street for the dropoff and it prevents the address for the one that delivering and the screen only will allow the small X to close out without accepting the offer. It seemed to do that on 3 of 4 deliveries which seemed to me that it is designed to have you accept the offer since already about to drop off the current 1 or typing in the field closing out the current delivery. Had that happen as was typing and so caused me to cancel the order bc was not going to deliver 8 miles for $2.58
Yea my first year I made 45k just doing uber
I went from making 250 a day to 30 dollars, I'm glad I got a job now
Uber eats is no longer giving refunds for paid items never received. They instead will now gaslight you and insist you did receive your full order and reject the request for a refund.
Dang that’s messed up
Holywood, West holywood area always busy and you can hit $100 very quick on busy days
I hate delivering to apartment complexes. Especially the ones where I have to walk up to the 3rd or 4th floor. They are confusing and frustrating.
my man knows his dollar per hour, respect.
Major tip if you aren't already aware: uber has hidden "main drivers" for both areas and time slots. It takes about 5-7 days of delivering at the same times to be pushed to those spots. You become one of the first in the queue for getting good orders. They also prefer people to stay on LONGER shifts. I believe this was about a year or so ago, I highly doubt this is no longer around. Its extremely effective. Combine that with multiapping and I was easily getting 20-30/hr. My biggest tip was 50$ for a small white castle order. The silliest order I ever seen was mcdonalds for a napkin and a single spoon. No lie, bananas.
And what annoys me about resturants is while your waiting to deliver THEIR FOOD they wont even offer you something to drink
They give you free water 😅
You expect a free drink?
Why should they. Entitlement is what’s wrong with this country.
Well done this is an honest video imho, most people make up fairytales about this ish and mislead people perhaps, but this is really sort of on average what it is sort of like perhaps. Props for being honest man.
Bro is working for free 😂😂😂
This is uber! Work for free and we will kick you out when we want!
Nah he ain’t working for free… DoorDash/ubereats has been shit lately, it used to be good as hell but bunch of shit orders
I do Ubereats in my city of Toronto, Ontario the rates have been really bad since the beginning of the year comparison to last year the graph keeps declining I use to be making $20 now it’s at $11 and it keeps getting worse every week.
I used to get the $11 orders, now I'm lucky to see one for 6, that isn't two different ones stacked together.
Too many drivers across all platforms
Many are accepting low rates, under .80 cent per mile😂
@The-Heart-Will-Testify soon those will be the only rides being offered. Uber/Lyft is done. I give them both another couple years.
I've been experimenting and started taking subpar orders usually less than a $1 mile and uber will add on a second order that's usually better than the one I have like 60 to 70% of the time. uber has been adding orders all throughout the trip this past month, they didn't used to do it once you left the restaurant. He's right about the food being ready
I mean it was at least a year or so ago they for sure got me on doubles allll the time
what do you do if it doesnt work/ delay the non tipped order until you catch a fish. Its bass season. they werent tipping anyways. If you catch a bass deliver it to them.
@@PyroFilmsFX i do it full time and make more money and have more freedom than most 9-5's in my town highest 9-5 i have had is 17$ an hour i average 20-25$ an hour doing just doordash when i add uber and instacart into that i can easily make over 200$ a day
Uber eats literally doesn’t care for the independent contractors… i quit doing it since the company just doesn’t give a damn.
When I do Uber Eats, over a span of 4-5 hours I make $100 at least. I guess it depends on your area.
How about apartment complex with the one address, the want u to guess where the are located. Tell them to learn how to pin their dropoff location.
Specially those ugly apartments with infinite hallways. Where the fact is Your Room! Meanwhile still have to go down 18 stories lmao.
@@Mexikhano369they can meet you or pick up from office. 😂
then they respond in mexican... WTF
me ubero? Queso the addresso?
Ubereats in my opinion living in LA, CA is like a bike messenger/motorcycle side hustle. For those driving in cars. You’re spending more on gas than what you make on each delivery.
Depending on the situation with a difficult customer and drop off, I will sometimes screenshot all the information I have with regards to the address and send it to them. I almost never have difficulty finding the address, but if I do, it is often something wrong in the app or they did not confirm their address and sending them the screenshot clears that up quickly, or at least provides my side of the story.
Sometimes like in your situation, the customers just don’t know how to provide clear, accurate and detailed information. And that always helps 😅😅
This happens to me to I just use the google maps cuz it’ll show a picture of the actual address
I try to stick to my schedule even if I get a bad shift like yours. More often than not I ll have a good one to make up for it soon enough. Food delivery is definatly on the decline in my area though.
This is facts
schedule= 12 hours a day/ pay= from 6 dollars per 12 hour day up to 200 I have zero control never over 200 for 12 hours= thats way below min wage, ILLEGAL
im gonna have to look back= the app knows im paying rent in a hotel. I think it sent me a dog bone tonight to let me survive= indentured servitude. I think it did it last week too= the customers dont even tip but ill get one huge order- not huge. like 40 bux. Im a poker pro and 40????????
I sometimes get a 40 dollar pay and its not from the customer>>> its the algorithm gaming me.
if the customer is confused why im happy with the tip??? Why is the app treating human beings this way>>> I can destroy the sytem.
I’m not alone it’s slow in Maryland too unfortunately. The biggest order I saw was 14 but it was a double order besides that 3 5 6
Havent driven in like a month. All is like under $10 for an hour and mileage is crazy.
Uber eats in my area gets active after 10pm bc everyone wants late night McDonald’s or Taco Bell, and usually get tipped pretty well after delivery.
I’ll try that out in my area and see if it’s any better!
yeah but what about when you have to wait in the drive-through line forever (10, 15 or more minutes) ??
Late night Hungry and drunk people tip well?
I had my best delivery EVER today/ I show up theres a kid with cash tip in hand, a baby in a diaper walking around. A mom with a pitbull she carries around. KICKASS I treated the kiddo with respect and made it clear im happy with the tip. Had to congratulate mom on how good a job shes doing.
Besides the pay then you have the people who report. I notice McDonald’s orders are usually who report never received. The driver is trying to earn but also trying to not get off the platform for false reports. You want to be picky but this isn’t the same money as the pandemic. Base pay is lowered.
Usually the really low paying orders, are the ones that end up having problems. No-tippers are just difficult people. You will save yourself a lot of problems if you just don't accept and order that's less than $5 overall and $1.5/mile
@@jamesk7867 Noticed this too. That's why Uber is pushing so hard to trick us into taking those orders. They know they're shit.
I wouldn't accept any of those lol I'd rather wait then waste gas on those
Man this has me in tears 😂😂😂 I understand the struggle, I wonder if anybody even makes money off uber
I started Uber eats cause I’m unemployed I remember ordering on Uber eats in the past and had no idea that tips are the only ways drivers make real money. Customers are paying more for delivery and drivers gets less of profits. I live in a small town and made $210 after 28 hours of being online that’s insane, $160 of that was tips the fare pay is not enough to even cover gas.
A couple things note worthy....
Ubereats 'tacks on' around $2.00 to every order plus their other fees. So basically if you walk into the restaurant and order item number 1and the cost is $16.95, your Uber price is $18.95 (plus fees).
Also?
The communication between the customer and the driver is lame at best. From what I'm told my other drivers... Notes that show the delivery instructions or even maps are not forwarded to the driver.
I'm in an apartment complex, and 90% of the time the driver will spend an extra 5 minutes looking for my apartment even though clear instructions are included in every order. (which they tell me they can't see)
I drive nights .. less traffic , fewer traffic lughts, appreciative customers . Depends where you are , how manh drivers there are , etc etc . Lot faster turnover at night IMO
I was doing pretty good with nights, getting tips bumped up anywhere from .25 cents - $30 on a few of them. But now I feel like UE is messing with me. Tonight, working 6 hrs I did 5 deliveries, drove 44 miles, and barely made over $40! They're just offering me then crap that no one wants. On Weds night that sent me to FOUR different restaurants where the order had already been p/u (all of those were the only decent ones, or should've been). You know how they made it right? They gave me a total of $3!!!!!!
Supposedly at Diamond level you're supposed to get better help when you call for support- LMMFAO! They couldn't even tell me why they kept putting these orders up for over an hour after they were picked up...they just keep having multiple drivers showing up to these places for nothing.
I had a horrible doordash day with very difficult orders today 1 to a jail , and then another one at a basketball game at the back of a school for 4 50
Man I HATE when there are days like that, hopefully today is better!
Yep. Quit last year after 7 years of UBER and Lyft. First 3 years were great. Shite hit the fan with Covid and even got worse afterwards. Miss talking to folks, hearing their stories and offering encouragement to those who were struggling. I'm retired and feel sorry for everybody who is trying make a living at it.
Yup I rode the wheels off these apps ..it was time for me to get a 9-5pm job . Got tired of killing my car and wasting more money than what I was making
North of Atlanta Uber is dead. The most I can make is on a Friday evening but haven't made a $100 on any shift in a long time.
Its a defeating feelin to be willing and able to work and just not get paid min wage. Every normal job you get paid even when its slow. I dont desire slow periods. but i need to be paid for my time.
Bruh you got to be lying 😭. I live in Augusta and I make over $200 - $270 a day. I make over $300 plus a day in Atlanta 12 hours a day. Y'all ain't no hustlers.
I just started with Uber eats about a week ago on the south side (McDonough, mainly) and weekdays are ass. Made about $130 on Friday and Saturday, so I might just use this as a weekend gig.
@@NicolasPBJ used to live in McDonough but it has changed a lot since.
@@jamesflou oh for sure, I grew up in Ola back when the schools were just a cow pasture
Enjoyed your content I truly understand how U feel I hate it when customers put forth no effort to help or direct U Its like they want U to stumble Resturants are suppose to make Uber eats a priority U should not have to wait forever Dinner has more action but customers can be very difficult
Thanks for sharing Appreciate your honesty when customers give detail instructions they get their order faster and smoother but they act like they cant be bothered or just dont care
Are you delivering those orders to keep high acceptance rate for rewards programs?
Too many drivers. My area has few UE drivers. If I refuse orders they go up. 1st offer was $8. Final offer was $27! 2 pick ups. One was Applebee's. I expected the food to have been made an hour ago. Wrong. They didn't send the restaurant the order until a driver accepted it!
It really depends on the area. Lunch and dinner are the best in my area where there can be orders that can range from 7-20 dollars
The worst thing is those prices are the “expected” when you add tip…it’s never that. I wish Uber just told you the guarantee minimum instead
I tried uber eats today and I wasn’t impressed. I declined majority of the orders because they were all over 10+ miles. I also did not know that customers could reduce tips after delivery. Had one guy report his order was damaged and that I wasn’t professional?! Which was not the case at all, and he took his whole $2 tip back 🙄
I do better with doordash.
Completely depends on your area
DoorDash use to be good in my area. Not anymore due to too many drivers and it’s slow. Uber Eats is better in my area. I don’t do breakfast hours until 10:00 am and do it until 2:00 pm. I will no longer do chick filet orders after yesterday. It was slow so I took it.
Had someone in an RV park say we are the 3rd trailer from the back. All i asked was what the RV number was and they proceeded to be condescending and acted like I asked them what gender they were.. 3rd trailer from the back could mean a lot of things depending on the Rv park
Why are you taking orders below $1/per mile
Bad tip orders are always the pain in the ass. Yea lately uber is really sucking. I used to make $200 a day in 6 hours now I'm making $100 a day and doing 9 hours a day.
Economy is down. Less tips. People are done tipping
@@cubswincubswinao that's ok they are not getting me to pick up their orders.
Strangely, in my market, I have found dinner time to be one of the least profitable times of the day. I think it’s because there are just so many drivers out at that time and also so many new drivers driving that it makes it hard to get good orders. From 10:30 AM to 12 PM has been my most profitable.
Yeah. I drove at night when there's probably fewer drivers and the customers are grateful , and the traffic is slower, plus big places like malls are closed so it lessens footwork. Can be annoying if lobby is closed and you get stuck in a slow drive through . But I do other kinds of Uber services too to help fill it in
you're actually legitimately part of the problem. doing two dollar orders is crazy. you can do surveys online for more than that
I do uber once in a blue moon. Because when you order and the driver usually picks up 3, 4, 5 other orders, so my order always comes last and cold, so I just go get it myself, and I'm positively sure that's the case for most people, thinking 2, 3, or 4 times to wait so long.
I definitely get my own food as well. Delivery apps are not worth it as a customer. It's way too hit or miss, often miss.
At least in my market, breakfast and lunch are not really that busy - at least during the week. Dinner time is the only busy time. During weekend brunch it can be busy. I don't like working before dinner time because there is less traffic later on and parking is free throughout the city after 7pm. Typically work from like 5pm to 12am, sometimes outside of those hours on the weekends.
This is a reality for DD and Ubereats this job is for people that jave no papers facts 💯

Not true at all. I recently met a guy that does it full time. He showed me his pay in app. He make over $2000 a week, 60-64hrs. He’s even had days where he made $560. He’s a top driver ( whatever that means ), so he gets better orders…$73, $133, etc
Here is the thing about delivery gigs. The first you gotta see is, what area do you live in? Also, what time of day are you doing it, and how many other drivers are doing it the same time. There are some people making 8k a month doing delivery gigs(according to penny hoarder). It comes down to the state you live in and how saturated it is. I think DoorDash has most of the market, but in some areas, other companies could be better. Yes, these gig companies don’t pay well but I still think it is fantastic to have the opportunity to go make money on your terms. It’s great as a job filler as well, as in maybe someone lost their job.
It's the waits that kill the deal
Yeah fr tho
You are right . I am also a part time uber eat driver. I can only made close by $14 to $16 an hours in Chicago. And 50 % of the trip have no tips. Average trip is only $2 per trip . So dump!!!
Yeah it’s rough rn
Literally three days in to Uber Eats and it kinda' blows so far. I'm in South Florida, which you'd think would be decent, but despite being quite picky with orders, 8 hours can get $120 if you're VERY lucky, but that doesn't account for driving a LOT of miles, along with gas. Accounting for those, we're getting hilariously close to Federal minimum wage. Hurts more when you deliver to 7,700 square foot mansions with that amount of pay, and they give only the suggested tip, not a dime more, despite having to be hassled by their guards, etc. Not to mention things like the very long lights here, almost all street miles not highway... My friend said he did this a couple years ago and it was "The easiest $25-35 an hour he ever made, it's free money!" Either his market is insanely good for this, UE is paying a lot less, or he's a lying sack of poop. Maybe all three.?
i do it full time and make more money and have more freedom than most 9-5's in my town highest 9-5 i have had is 17$ an hour i average 20-25$ an hour doing just doordash when i add uber and instacart into that i can easily make over 200$ a day
@@smokinglife8980 That's crazy... I don't know if my market is just weird, but my zones for DoorDash for example are MASSIVE and I wonder if that affects things. It's primarily UberEats here and yesterday I was pretty picky with orders and ended up with $135 in like 9+ hours, and a free meal because someone messed up an address and canceled the order. With some REALLY aggressive multi-apping, on the best day I could squeeze out $20 an hour, but that's an exceptionally good day and $18-19 is usually where it ends up. I am thinking of adding Instacard though, I've heard it can be good. I'm in Palm Beach County, FL. Would you be willing to share your approximate area? I'm curious how markets differ. Got a friend in Kentucky and he's surprised how bad it can be here as well considering it's become such a hot area.
The only time you make more money is evenings and nights shift, morning and lunch pay nothing.
These Uber Eats customers are VERY VERY special in my area. Not one under comes in under 10 miles
I had the same problem working for doordash. I had to wait like 15-20 minutes for them to make the food.
In my market, Uber Eats is a joke. DoorDash is the way to go, if you can get a shift
A national drivers strike will fix this issue in an instant! I don't know why the drivers are not doing that. If everyone strikes for one day it will cost the company millions of dollars and they will fix their act immediately
Starbucks is actually a bad place to look for morning fares. You wanna go the actual breakfast spots like First Watch.
We all underpaid as Ubereats delivery 2024. This is going to be suck. Is not worth it anymore.
Are you useing the busy areas? Look on your map in the app for busy areas near you.Might need to read all the instructions on order too. I am still figuering things out. Currently out of commision due to getting into an accident I am fault for while on an order. Good luck stay safe. Keep it local. I won't take orders too far away. Keep it under 30 min or less. I'm no pro still novice not sure if I'll keep at it. Stay safe keep it local.
Don’t take orders under $5.00, PERIOD!
Unless it’s under a mile
Your only supposed to dash during the peak days of the week and only for dinner. Also uber is just one of a few apps to have open at once not just main app
You should do both passengers and food. I do mornings and just passengers and stay busy.
I don't even mess with it except for Fri-Sun Dinner time. It is dead, otherwise. You cant even guarantee dinner will be good either. It is Sunday now and I started doing deliveries at 3:00 pm. It is now 9:00 pm and I have only made $87.00. I have refused about 100 offers so far and I'm about sick of it for the day. I take this personal when I see offer after offer and they are for 2 and 3 dollars and want you to travel 7 to 10+ miles. God, I just want to slap these cheapskates!
I did uber before COVID while working at FedEx. I was making about 20hr @ FedEx. With Uber I was making about 20-25/hr. My best night was 30/hr. They used to have bonuses all the time, 3$ for every order. Now it's not even worth it, id get around 10-12/hr. Ans to make it worse people don't tip
$20 for 16 miles is not great.
Thankfully it ended up being $29 for 16 miles🙏
At all.
Cancel the damn order. If you can’t find her, wait on the timer and then cancel
I've been doing UberEats since May of 2018... Up until early 2021 were the best years. Nowadays I can barely crack $50 a night. I start working as an Amazon DSP in two weeks, it's time to move on. I can't accept low pay outs anymore, but I'll always cherish the early years of UberEats 💯
Still able to get 100$ a night but that's on a Saturday.
Im ex ups. I cant do it anymore due to the ups injuries. If you can do it then get a real job so you get insurance and pension and paid if you slip and fall. Of all the 11 years delivering UPS i had my worst night last month in a storm. It was worse than a skating rink and i almost fell every time. and my OWN car got stuck in the snow and beat up.
Every order you accepted was bad and you lose money. Stop accepting terrible orders
Over 8 bucks an hour isn't too bad considering in the dump state of Kentucky minimum wage is 7.25.
Question: I see statements that with Uber Eats you can deliver in any US market, but that is NOT the case. I'm in North Carolina and was told yesterday that I can only deliver in this state. To apply in another state will require losing my ability to work on my home turf. I explained the idea of traveling and working to no avail. Thoughts, Anyone?
I live in Virginia and deliver here. Visited my parents in Myrtle Beach SC...took some deliveries while I was there.
Thanks, I have doubted that the Uber Support has any idea about this. I may simply need to try it. How was the earning in Myrtle Beach? I also visit there on occasion.
I live in Los Angeles, and could not deliver in Las Vegas or Nashville. Once out of the zone, it shuts down.
I do Uber eats as a side hustle and it’s not a bad gig …. I do 1 or 2 orders a day and call it a day … make a week in the range of $100-$225 …. I would do more deliveries but I wrk full time so this side hustle does help …..
I just tried it today it’s even worse than that only made $7.23 per hour after spending $30 on gas made $70 for almost 6 hours of driving. One day was enough to test the waters going to just get a regular job a few minutes from the house can make $20 per hour and barely use any gas.
Hwo much did uber make on your labour
Im retired. So i sit at home with the app on all day. And the phone just rings and rings. But i pick and choose. And i usually make $500 a week (net after i pay for gas). And i use about a half a tank of gas a day
So its a cool lil retirement gig since i have a nice pension. 🤷🏽♂️
You. Know. Better.
Multi-app! This is 2024, not 2020!
bad idea to leave the car running
today was shaping up well. Until the app had a fail and was asking me to go back and re id a person. It took an hour on the customer support line= ruined my day.
8 minute wait to deliver is a joke. I did it once and I looked like one of the youtubes of bad drivers. I swore up a storm and called her a b and all kind of names outside the door. Uber says to NEVER wait over 10 mins for the order but im not adding 8 on top of that. Im paid to deliver not to wait. If they paid normal 65 cents per mile plus min wage while waiting for orders then OK.
I do Grub Hub and started Uber a few months ago. I was shocked at how they could offer such low orders of $2 and $3! Even pick-ups at Walmart for $5 for 40 minute trips!!? Now I see why, they know they have people like you who are desperate and will take it. But, to each his own, guess you have to do what you have to do. I have to make at least $1 a mile at the very least!
Only ok as side hustle, ok to pay off bills, car loan and maybe invest your earnings into stock market index fund, crypto not to make a living out of it alone.
Even during the dinner shift, you’re most likely not going to make much and you’ll be making 1990s minimum wage.. in many cases you will actually be delivering for free. Because the gasoline prices are high. But there is no discussion about what’s creating this? I do this as a side to make extra on the weekends weeknights and something dramatically has changed between the time I started in 2017. I think I have a really good idea what it is, but I’m just wondering what you the video producer this channeland other people think it is
