I do a lot of Roadie deliveries in the mornings... My favorite are the CVS pharmacy runs. Very low mileage with a consistent $8-$9 payout. This is a great way to start your morning before hitting lunchtime food deliveries.
So, the Walmart I work for (OGP… we’re the ones who deal with the delivery drivers, shop for the items, dispense, package, etc)., we only work with Spark and Roadie. But another Walmart nearby, which is near one of our DCs, also works with UberEats. Because of the holidays, we have been having customers placing MUCH larger orders… both physically AND quantity wise. A coworker and I had two dollies worth of groceries (edible and nonedible), plus 3 of the 40 packs of water, two packs of paper towels, and a toddlers bike for a Spark driver. It was a 3 batch delivery run. Now, if he actually showed up with a car like mine, it would have been doable… like SANE… but he showed up… with a TINY car… but insisted on taking the order. We SHOULD have turned him down, but he insisted on taking the run and somehow managed to Tetris everything into his tiny car. And yes, he kept the eggs safe. BUT every order after from that point on, he’s shown up in a larger vehicle. If you’re going to take a three batch run, PLEASE have a vehicle that can handle it. A Prius can’t haul a 75 inch tv and 8 40 packs of water.
I have over 110 trips completed with roadie and out of all them i had two that had good pay out. The two trips that paid over 5.00 a mile was because the customer added a pre tip. Most cases ive used roadie to get gas money heading towards back home. I don't wait to get approved for any jobs. Im usually doing another gig or doing personal errands while i get approved 😅😊
The fact you have to "bid" to get a roadie order, I hate that. What if I'm too far? What if my rating's too low or I'm too new? What if I have the wrong vehicle? With DoorDash (the delivery job I have), I get an offer and I accept it, boom. It's my delivery now. No bidding, just accept or don't.
You can't treat roadie like a normal gig app, you have to treat it like a redheaded stepchild. While doing other apps open it up and see if something is nearby (under 5 miles) and bid on it, then keep going about your business, if you get accepted cool, as soon as it no longer makes sense to drive to the pickup cancel your bid and bid on something else. Roadie does not like it when people sit in a parking lot and bid for stuff and just wait they want people to use it as intended "hey you're going 20 miles west anyways.... want to put $15 in your pocket and do us a favor?". I open up roadie probably about 10 times per hour and never for more than 5 seconds unless accepted on an order
This is not unusual. Too many people are using the app. I've literally been in the parking lot when I've bid a job and not get accepted. Many times! You can't rely on just this app. Roadie is perfect for multiapping.
I got almost 200 gigs and make between 1-200 dollars a day on roadies and I’ll make this statement. Want to get paid? Don’t apply to one or 2 orders at a time. From my understanding u can take up to 3 gigs in a row. I’ve had 3 orders for discount tires driving to different stores and every time I check the app I’ll look for small pill runs that in my way to try to get accepted for. So u might see a 20 mile for 20 bucks, but then in the direction to your end point, u might see a few gigs that 1-5 miles for 8-10 dollars.
I did my roadie delivery today from Home Depot. I have a pick up truck. It was a large gig went to the customer service desk. They said I have to go to the back because it’s a van order. I went to the back and it was only air vent covers in your house. Four of them that were literally 12 x 6. So sometimes they do get it wrong.
Roadie will still show available gigs that require larger vehicles even if you specify that you have a smaller car. Now, as as ons, they've sent notifications for gigs that fit my vehicle, but there have been very few of those.
from my experience and observation, Roadie will offer the orders out to everyone BUT like Spark, they go with Proximity first. So if you want the order accepted, you need to be closest to the store and have the other metrics follow. This has worked for me at least. But yeah, Roadie has gone down the tubes too since they started doing the Walmart orders. The only good ones that I have seen are Home Depot orders that need a truck and even those are horrible most of the time.
I've been on roadie about 8 months done about 1500 deliveries now best month I made 1500 avg probably 800-1000 a month alot of my mornings are cvs runs tractor supply and normally get a walmart run everyday I'm on the waiting list for spark still haven't heard anything for about 6 months but roadie has been pretty good for me
I have a cargo van I do five deliveries in morning each order from homedepot’ Walmart 70 tv ‘ tractor supply ‘ each order I take atleast $40 n up less then 25 miles ‘ it’s all depends on location’ location is a key ‘ plus cargo van ‘
Lots of bots used to snag up good orders from roadie offers. Or so it seems. Pay for most offers continue to decrease. Just a year ago when Walmart started using roadie to offload volume it would be like $3-5 per mile. Now it’s $1-2 tops. 💔
The reason. Why he wasn't getting any offers. Because it was his 1st day they did not run his background. Check you have to submit on one order. Befor what 4 they do your background check. Then after you submit your one, you will get denied the run.If you wait about 24 hours and submit again, you would have been approved.I've been on route for over eight years
I've been activated on Roadie for 2 weeks now. Have been monitoring it almost daily while also doing some part-time rideshare driving. I've only seen about 3 decent offers in the course of those two weeks. Most of them come in around 50-60 cents a mile and about $17 an hour. Made one offer that was not accepted. Thankfully, my part-time rideshare driving has been doing well enough. One more week before I delete Roadie and try something else.
Roadie is complete garbage. I signed up and attempted to mix it in with regular Uber Eats and Door Dash orders. I finally saw a reasonable offer and put in a request. They denied me. I then saw the same offer reappear so I attempted to get it again. They then deactivated me on the spot. That whole situation was strange first off. Second off, it is idiotic to have to put in a request and wait up to 15 minutes for them to approve or deny. That right there is the one reason not to do it.
I've been doing Roadie for quite some time now it gets worse My vehicle is an extremely large one 2016 Ford Transit t350 gives me roughly 17 miles per gallon I picked up a gig from Roadie after 8:00 p.m. which was 17 mi away got to the pickup location only to find out that location close at 6:00 p.m. so I got to drive back 17 mi home without getting the gig they compensate me $4 The average price of gas $350 17 miles per gallon to get compensated $4 it doesn't happen often but it did happen twice two different stores The first one is At Home and the second one Discount Tire
Same exact thing happened to me. 3 days in a row, submitted for multiple gigs and got rejected. On the third day, I submitted for 3 small gigs within 1 mile of my home. All were rejected. I have not used it since.
Mike you're not paying attention bro. It says Large order because the total weight is over 100lb. Not because the single items are 18" and 39lb. There's obviously several items of that size making it a large order.
My 1st day on roadie, they let me on the app, got rejected on my 1st offer, 15 min later got notified that my background check cleared, haven't had a rejection since. So maybe his background check hasn't processed yet.
Also, Roadie shows you orders of all sizes regardless of what vehicle you have selected. I have sedan selected and I still see 'huge' labeled offers that require box and pickup trucks. So I think the car plays a role in acceptance of the order, not the ability to see or offer on it.
I can’t even get anyone when it comes to support. My first delivery the app made no sense. It asked me for the location of where the items were left before it gave me the drop off location. Once there it asked me to scan the items again and take a picture of where I left it, then gave me a hard time passing over the expenses part because there was no parking or anything to reimburse. Suddenly I could mark it as delivered and everything disappeared. The whole time I had been waiting for support to respond and they never did. So confusing!!!
Roadie is tricky, like you have to be at the right spot and at the right time, and decide to work in a specific radius-sit and wait- its great for a filler.
Yesterday, I offered on a gig at around 5:30am. It stayed in pending status for more than an hour and they raised the payout twice and I was still in pending status. Around half an hour later, I submitted an offer for another gig that stayed in a pending status for more than a half an hour and saw the payout rise in that one as well. I never did get either gig. I was relatively close for both gigs, have a vehicle capable of handling both, and, supposedly, there is nothing in/on my account that would prevent me from getting those gigs. But anytime I submit an offer on a single delivery location gig for more than $30, I don’t get it. A 14 stop prescription delivery, no problem…. Support just keeps saying “the algorithm….blah blah blah…. “ But it makes no sense that I’m pending and they raise the payout multiple times and then give it to someone else.
I do roadie and its good work but i have a small cargo van..I get bigger payouts and have less competition since i can fit bigger items in my vehicle...I had clicked on a $35 tire order but somebody had been approved before me...Then 15 min later it said job was available again..Come to find out some dude was trying to fit 4 huge tires into his car then had to cancel gig because it couldn't fit...Seems like he lied about his vehicle size and thought he could do the gig..Dont do this Roadie will desctivate you for canceling gigs I dont know why people lie then risk being deactivated...🤦♂️
Bid on an order and then you can do some food delivery until you find out if you’re accepted. Once accepted, you still have another 15 min to start the gig
I'm literally the roadie expert. I've been doing them over 3 years, almost since inception. Absolutely ridiculous, a joke and all these new drivers just make it worse to make ANY MONEY. The gigs are ridiculous
Roadie introduce a new feature called Block in which you pick zones you want to accept deliveries in that area and they set up time slots available for certain days of the week and you can be places on the waitlist if that schedule block is full. I tried it last month and it was interesting because they assign you certain deliveries automatically. Right now they paused it because they want to improve or something.
That's the biggest joke of an app I have over 100 orders done with roadie and it's almost impossible to get accepted it's not fair if another driver has more orders done he'll get the offer even if he's not at the store or close and he'll even get accepted for two orders at a time im in the ny market
fair has nothing to do with it. it takes TIME to build trust with anyone. stick to it and it will get better. just like when I started Spark, they checked every item on shop and deliver when I checked out. now I might have a bag check one out of 20 shop orders
I've been doing roadie for a year now. And at first it was going pretty good and it was worth my time. But somewhere along the line my offers that rejected more and more often. I would take the little offers at first and they would lead to bigger offers but now that doesn't seem to be the formula. When I put in for an offer they usually take over 15 minutes to get a decision and most of the time it's retracted so lately Rhody has not been worth it at all it's just a pain in the butt and it's unnecessary wear on my car.
I've noticed especially recently that rody has a lot of general merchandise Walmart deliveries. Also what I have noticed is that unlike spark drivers they are usually larger items, TV's, Futons, basketball hoops, weight sets, etc.
do a video with a big walmart batch order from Spark and lace it with food deliveries. the batch orders are not perishable, it doesnt matter how long it take you. I challenge you to do 10-12-15 walmart drops and try to work in 4-5 food deliveries at the same time. 3 hours $75 challenge. if you are a pro, you can do it!!! thats the video you need to show people. how to maximize their time and efficiency
Roadie’s set up makes no sense I find sometimes they will pick you for gigs that are the furthest, the only benefit I see with the app is that in my state they pay extra for mileage. It’s still a hard application to run regularly because of wait times (for gigs) it almost feels like you have to try for a the gigs available at once in order to get consistent work. Also they ask you if you have extra equipment IE dolly’s furniture movers and things like that but you are never guaranteed to get those larger gigs, I drive a truck and get constantly accepted for small gigs that can be taken care of with a small car. The application does not seem to adjust itself at all for the vehicle you drive its kind of annoying especially when they “certify” you by making you take pictures of your “extra equipment” and submit them. It’s frustrating to have all this extra equipment IE tie downs dollys and furniture moving gear on me and never have to use it.
Yes, that happens even if you have 700, 5 stars on the platform. Doesn't matter how many 5 stars you have. If roadie doesn't want to accept you they won't accept you I spent 3 days without getting accepted. Somedays, I've earned 15 dollars. Roadie limits your earnings. For example if you earned 700 dollars in 5 days they stop accepting you on gigs this often occurs. Also my phone bars go down all of a sudden when roadie doesn't want to accept me on gigs and also when I'm trying to offer a gig and roadie want to accept me my bars a through the roof and get accepted. I don't know if anyone else has witness this aswell. Please let me know. If roadie messes with our internet band as well 🤔
I started my gig'n with Roadie, they really aren't set up to make a living, only filler, I've done 318 orders total, their airport runs of which was my original reason for signing up start at about .50 a mile and surge as time goes by, but surprising to me they usually get taken b4 reaching .75 a mile, unexplainable why ppl take these? they are enabling the ridiculous pay, I've taken some for fun to take a random road trip, the Best Buy orders are also gross, weaving all over town paying .50-.75 a mile, Home Depot is marginally better, Walmart orders in this area seem to be just big TV's, Spark handles the smalls, so they just landed CVS national account which used to be Shipt, these are great fillers and surge quickly to provide them better service, occasionally a wait at the pharmacy but not terrible, pays $9-15 usually for 2-4 miles, this is the only reason I open the App anymore, owned by UPS the customer service is terrible and so is the pay, there's an opportunity to improve this with the ownership, hoping they do some day?
Extra extra large and huge gigs are the only way you're going to make money. Trucker van I made 1500 in 2 weeks on average about 4 hours a day easy money
I live near the airport and I typically start in the cell lot no later than 5:15 AM. One of the airlines typically posts several gigs by 5:30. The other day orders were popping like crazy and STUPIDLY I offered on several (4-5) so I could combine them. I literally had 16 HUGE bags ( many weighing 75 + lbs) in my van. It took about 3 hours to complete the gig and made OVER $30 + an hour. It is AFTER Christmas week so it was a bit crazy. FYI…it kicked my butt honestly. I am 66 years old and in good shape but it was ROUGH. No one tips for delayed luggage. In my opinion the luggage/airport gigs COMBINED are the only gigs worth my time.
Think about how many other people are bidding on this one gig. Only 1 person can get accepted and its not like it knows or feels bad if you’ve been bidding and have gotten declined
Too many orders were already picked up? The pay sucks and there so few of them where I live. I rarely do orders for them. You can back out of the order tho!
That is exactly my experience on roadie... I would see a quick CVS pick up at a pharmacy ...submit your offer ..rejected submit another offer rejected... you like yo why can't I get an offer and why do I have to wait 10 to 15 minutes to be rejected...no thanks
i signed up and got activated for it but all the offers are garbage so i never saw a RHodie good offer...these offers remind me of the walmart "opportunities" orders on uber eats
Aldo Mike. If you have a cargo van or a dolly, there is massive potential to earn on roadie. $60 for 5 miles short of thing. They are huge orders. Couches, pallets, etc
Who gets the couch out of the vehicle? Sounds like a stupid question but I’m a woman with a van and can do this type of work if I don’t have to lift over fifty pounds. Thanks for the reply 😊
Here's my advice for Roadie. Use only if you have to. Support is a complete joke and they'll cancel orders on you after being accepted with zero information why. if you don't respond in 4 minutes to their chat they will close it on you and you start all over. You wait an hour for them and they give you 4 minutes. Their new chats do not bring up notifications either. if you back out of the chat session to check for more gigs, you have to go through their chat bot again to get back to the chatting screen. It's like they don't want you to get help.
I’ve tried submitting bids on Roadie over 30x over the course of several weeks, all were denied. Still haven’t been able to get my FIRST bid approval. I’m out.
youre right about reaching out to support - i been doing gopuff for over 2 years and it always work - ive also done 6 cities and 3 states with them - always get hours but some reason my home town / home base that citi is not getting any hours - soooo im going to contact support - just waiting to see if the manager on site can get it happening first
btw rhoadie was ok when i was doing it but yes the rejection suck and i have a van with all seats into the floor - plus next to the location having the bid on
My experience is totally different. I make 200 a day and don’t do a lot of driving. I do Home Depot deliveries in my area. I have work under 8 hours. I drive a minivan. Also I master my market and have experience with roadie. I know how to filter the BS and do trips that are worth it. Also Roadie give you 45 minutes to get to a stop after getting accepted so you can multi app. Keep sleeping on Roadie please. 😂😂😂
Sometimes with Rhodie i drive towards the bid I submitted and might get the gig. Maybe like Uber radar others are bidding too. So I multi app and whoever responds with best Gig offer I go with. Rhode bids you can remove yourself from or cancel an offer
the only gigs on Roadie worth taking are the CVS orders. 10-12 bucks for 2-3 miles the rest of it is a joke the tire deliveries are a striaght 50 cents/mile ONE WAY yes, just started getting some Walmart gigs via Roadie also now getting Lowe's orders via UE Walmart losing a fortune on deliveries. they getting desperate to figure it out I delivered 2 bags of hershey kisses last night from Walmart, via Uber Eats 8 miles for $37. who is paying for this nonsense? i feel like I am being trolled half the time. half the orders a couple bucks for 20 miles, the other half 30,40,50 bucks for 8-10 miles
Roadie is straight trash in my area. I've only seen one offer worth it in 2 months. Needless to say i rarely turn it on anymore. Just not worth the time and effort
Roadie is great. The only thing that sucks. Is that if you’re somebody who’s attentive to the app and always checking it it’s not first come first serve when a job pops up you could be the first one to apply for it because you’re being attentive and alert to the app and you still won’t get selected that’s what sucks about it. It should be first come first serve

Excellent glad it's working for you!
That's a good strategy and I generally do the same!
I do the same thing, most are
I agree...all I have done on Roadie so far are Pharmacy runs. I had one the other day that paid $21 for only 3 miles of work in my area.
Nobody in Phoenix, like delivering the flowers. Those are almost automatically coming to me. 3-4miles for $10-$15 per order. Perfect filler app
So, the Walmart I work for (OGP… we’re the ones who deal with the delivery drivers, shop for the items, dispense, package, etc)., we only work with Spark and Roadie.
But another Walmart nearby, which is near one of our DCs, also works with UberEats.
Because of the holidays, we have been having customers placing MUCH larger orders… both physically AND quantity wise.
A coworker and I had two dollies worth of groceries (edible and nonedible), plus 3 of the 40 packs of water, two packs of paper towels, and a toddlers bike for a Spark driver. It was a 3 batch delivery run.
Now, if he actually showed up with a car like mine, it would have been doable… like SANE… but he showed up… with a TINY car… but insisted on taking the order.
We SHOULD have turned him down, but he insisted on taking the run and somehow managed to Tetris everything into his tiny car. And yes, he kept the eggs safe.
BUT every order after from that point on, he’s shown up in a larger vehicle.
If you’re going to take a three batch run, PLEASE have a vehicle that can handle it. A Prius can’t haul a 75 inch tv and 8 40 packs of water.
Y'all ain't got the sauce for roadie I be killing it
Been on Roadie since August and I've completed 1 order. Wasn't selected for a few tire deliveries, but mostly makes zero sense all the time.
Tire deliveries are my favorite!!! But only at 1 tire distributor LOL the rest are awful!
Same here.
Keep in mind the miles they show on the order are not from where u are, they are from the store to customer
Yea- always double the miles for actual miles approx
I have over 110 trips completed with roadie and out of all them i had two that had good pay out. The two trips that paid over 5.00 a mile was because the customer added a pre tip. Most cases ive used roadie to get gas money heading towards back home. I don't wait to get approved for any jobs. Im usually doing another gig or doing personal errands while i get approved 😅😊
All people can see all gigs, it is up to you to decide if you can actually fit it in your vehicle before submitting for an order.
The fact you have to "bid" to get a roadie order, I hate that. What if I'm too far? What if my rating's too low or I'm too new? What if I have the wrong vehicle? With DoorDash (the delivery job I have), I get an offer and I accept it, boom. It's my delivery now. No bidding, just accept or don't.

I did my roadie delivery today from Home Depot. I have a pick up truck. It was a large gig went to the customer service desk. They said I have to go to the back because it’s a van order. I went to the back and it was only air vent covers in your house. Four of them that were literally 12 x 6. So sometimes they do get it wrong.
Exactly. I had one that had 100 Ajax cans. It was labeled as HUGE.
Roadie will still show available gigs that require larger vehicles even if you specify that you have a smaller car. Now, as as ons, they've sent notifications for gigs that fit my vehicle, but there have been very few of those.
from my experience and observation, Roadie will offer the orders out to everyone BUT like Spark, they go with Proximity first. So if you want the order accepted, you need to be closest to the store and have the other metrics follow. This has worked for me at least. But yeah, Roadie has gone down the tubes too since they started doing the Walmart orders. The only good ones that I have seen are Home Depot orders that need a truck and even those are horrible most of the time.
In Denver you’ll see the exact same 12 delivery gig from Best Buy for 34.00, 3:45hrs and 65mi…I would’ve jumped on that Walmart in a heartbeat!!!
I've been on roadie about 8 months done about 1500 deliveries now best month I made 1500 avg probably 800-1000 a month alot of my mornings are cvs runs tractor supply and normally get a walmart run everyday I'm on the waiting list for spark still haven't heard anything for about 6 months but roadie has been pretty good for me
I just got off the Spark waiting list. I've done one Spark order so far. I've had a few Walmart deliveries on Uber Eats. One was a $60 order.
I have a cargo van I do five deliveries in morning each order from homedepot’ Walmart 70 tv ‘ tractor supply ‘ each order I take atleast $40 n up less then 25 miles ‘ it’s all depends on location’ location is a key ‘ plus cargo van ‘
Gas are expensive
Lots of bots used to snag up good orders from roadie offers. Or so it seems. Pay for most offers continue to decrease. Just a year ago when Walmart started using roadie to offload volume it would be like $3-5 per mile. Now it’s $1-2 tops. 💔
I'n surrounded by numerous pharmacies usually a mile from my home. I largely accept prescription runs with in 5 miles of my home.
The reason.
Why he wasn't getting any offers. Because it was his 1st day they did not run his background. Check you have to submit on one order. Befor what 4 they do your background check. Then after you submit your one, you will get denied the run.If you wait about 24 hours and submit again, you would have been approved.I've been on route for over eight years

Thankfully, my part-time rideshare driving has been doing well enough. One more week before I delete Roadie and try something else.
That’s how I felt about Flex. I just stopped doing it but I still have the app
Roadie is complete garbage. I signed up and attempted to mix it in with regular Uber Eats and Door Dash orders. I finally saw a reasonable offer and put in a request. They denied me. I then saw the same offer reappear so I attempted to get it again. They then deactivated me on the spot. That whole situation was strange first off. Second off, it is idiotic to have to put in a request and wait up to 15 minutes for them to approve or deny. That right there is the one reason not to do it.
Roadie used to pay a lot more before it was bought out by UPS, I remember most of the orders being at least double of what they are now.
I've been doing Roadie for quite some time now it gets worse My vehicle is an extremely large one 2016 Ford Transit t350 gives me roughly 17 miles per gallon I picked up a gig from Roadie after 8:00 p.m. which was 17 mi away got to the pickup location only to find out that location close at 6:00 p.m. so I got to drive back 17 mi home without getting the gig they compensate me $4 The average price of gas $350 17 miles per gallon to get compensated $4 it doesn't happen often but it did happen twice two different stores The first one is At Home and the second one Discount Tire
You’re in Texas. Trucks are the best way to go. I just started and I love it
Same exact thing happened to me. 3 days in a row, submitted for multiple gigs and got rejected. On the third day, I submitted for 3 small gigs within 1 mile of my home. All were rejected. I have not used it since.
The Roadie support or pit crew are bullying drivers
Mike you're not paying attention bro. It says Large order because the total weight is over 100lb. Not because the single items are 18" and 39lb. There's obviously several items of that size making it a large order.
My 1st day on roadie, they let me on the app, got rejected on my 1st offer, 15 min later got notified that my background check cleared, haven't had a rejection since. So maybe his background check hasn't processed yet.
Thanks for the heads up!
This has been my experience as well and I've heard similar from other Roadie drivers. There's a couple hurdles for that 1st order
How many orders have you done since you haven’t been rejected? Are there good payouts?
i submit 10 offers at a time, start at 6 am do roadie until about 5pm and then doordash ubereats rest of the day til the lady is off work
Also, Roadie shows you orders of all sizes regardless of what vehicle you have selected. I have sedan selected and I still see 'huge' labeled offers that require box and pickup trucks. So I think the car plays a role in acceptance of the order, not the ability to see or offer on it.
I can’t even get anyone when it comes to support. My first delivery the app made no sense. It asked me for the location of where the items were left before it gave me the drop off location. Once there it asked me to scan the items again and take a picture of where I left it, then gave me a hard time passing over the expenses part because there was no parking or anything to reimburse.

Dude, I just applied for 4 or 5 delivery apps and none of them have any openings available. I was kinda shocked.
Roadie is tricky, like you have to be at the right spot and at the right time, and decide to work in a specific radius-sit and wait- its great for a filler.
Yesterday, I offered on a gig at around 5:30am. It stayed in pending status for more than an hour and they raised the payout twice and I was still in pending status. Around half an hour later, I submitted an offer for another gig that stayed in a pending status for more than a half an hour and saw the payout rise in that one as well. I never did get either gig. I was relatively close for both gigs, have a vehicle capable of handling both, and, supposedly, there is nothing in/on my account that would prevent me from getting those gigs. But anytime I submit an offer on a single delivery location gig for more than $30, I don’t get it. A 14 stop prescription delivery, no problem….
Support just keeps saying “the algorithm….blah blah blah…. “ But it makes no sense that I’m pending and they raise the payout multiple times and then give it to someone else.
I do instacart right now but I am going to be starting my first day of Door Dash soon🤞🏻🙏🏼😁
I do roadie and its good work but i have a small cargo van..I get bigger payouts and have less competition since i can fit bigger items in my vehicle...I had clicked on a $35 tire order but somebody had been approved before me...Then 15 min later it said job was available again..Come to find out some dude was trying to fit 4 huge tires into his car then had to cancel gig because it couldn't fit...Seems like he lied about his vehicle size and thought he could do the gig..Dont do this Roadie will desctivate you for canceling gigs I dont know why people lie then risk being deactivated...🤦♂️
Bid on an order and then you can do some food delivery until you find out if you’re accepted. Once accepted, you still have another 15 min to start the gig
I'm literally the roadie expert. I've been doing them over 3 years, almost since inception. Absolutely ridiculous, a joke and all these new drivers just make it worse to make ANY MONEY. The gigs are ridiculous
Very smart to quit. Those gig apps pay NOTHING.
Roadie introduce a new feature called Block in which you pick zones you want to accept deliveries in that area and they set up time slots available for certain days of the week and you can be places on the waitlist if that schedule block is full. I tried it last month and it was interesting because they assign you certain deliveries automatically. Right now they paused it because they want to improve or something.
That's the biggest joke of an app I have over 100 orders done with roadie and it's almost impossible to get accepted it's not fair if another driver has more orders done he'll get the offer even if he's not at the store or close and he'll even get accepted for two orders at a time im in the ny market
fair has nothing to do with it. it takes TIME to build trust with anyone. stick to it and it will get better. just like when I started Spark, they checked every item on shop and deliver when I checked out. now I might have a bag check one out of 20 shop orders
Most gig apps sure hate it when their drivers decline orders, but when the shoe is on the other foot...
I've been doing roadie for a year now. And at first it was going pretty good and it was worth my time. But somewhere along the line my offers that rejected more and more often. I would take the little offers at first and they would lead to bigger offers but now that doesn't seem to be the formula. When I put in for an offer they usually take over 15 minutes to get a decision and most of the time it's retracted so lately Rhody has not been worth it at all it's just a pain in the butt and it's unnecessary wear on my car.
Must be nice when your app actually works how it should
They hv given me gigs and I specifically told them I'm in a 4 door car. That's roadie. You have to be careful with what u accept
I've noticed especially recently that rody has a lot of general merchandise Walmart deliveries. Also what I have noticed is that unlike spark drivers they are usually larger items, TV's, Futons, basketball hoops, weight sets, etc.
do a video with a big walmart batch order from Spark and lace it with food deliveries. the batch orders are not perishable, it doesnt matter how long it take you. I challenge you to do 10-12-15 walmart drops and try to work in 4-5 food deliveries at the same time. 3 hours $75 challenge. if you are a pro, you can do it!!!
thats the video you need to show people. how to maximize their time and efficiency
Roadie was the first gig app I signed up for but I’ve never delivered for them because, the offers suck.
Of course you can do other deliveries while you wait for your bid to be accepted/denied.
If you get another offer and let's say it takes 25 minutes, then you need to drive 15 minutes to the then accepted Roadie request will that be okay?
I mean, thats personally how i multiapp. @@YourDriverMike
Roadie’s set up makes no sense I find sometimes they will pick you for gigs that are the furthest, the only benefit I see with the app is that in my state they pay extra for mileage. It’s still a hard application to run regularly because of wait times (for gigs) it almost feels like you have to try for a the gigs available at once in order to get consistent work. Also they ask you if you have extra equipment IE dolly’s furniture movers and things like that but you are never guaranteed to get those larger gigs, I drive a truck and get constantly accepted for small gigs that can be taken care of with a small car. The application does not seem to adjust itself at all for the vehicle you drive its kind of annoying especially when they “certify” you by making you take pictures of your “extra equipment” and submit them. It’s frustrating to have all this extra equipment IE tie downs dollys and furniture moving gear on me and never have to use it.
I did a Costco run for Instacart and I was amazed what I could fit in my ford fiesta
Yes, that happens even if you have 700, 5 stars on the platform. Doesn't matter how many 5 stars you have. If roadie doesn't want to accept you they won't accept you I spent 3 days without getting accepted. Somedays, I've earned 15 dollars. Roadie limits your earnings. For example if you earned 700 dollars in 5 days they stop accepting you on gigs this often occurs.
Also my phone bars go down all of a sudden when roadie doesn't want to accept me on gigs and also when I'm trying to offer a gig and roadie want to accept me my bars a through the roof and get accepted. I don't know if anyone else has witness this aswell. Please let me know. If roadie messes with our internet band as well 🤔
I started my gig'n with Roadie, they really aren't set up to make a living, only filler, I've done 318 orders total, their airport runs of which was my original reason for signing up start at about .50 a mile and surge as time goes by, but surprising to me they usually get taken b4 reaching .75 a mile, unexplainable why ppl take these? they are enabling the ridiculous pay, I've taken some for fun to take a random road trip, the Best Buy orders are also gross, weaving all over town paying .50-.75 a mile, Home Depot is marginally better, Walmart orders in this area seem to be just big TV's, Spark handles the smalls, so they just landed CVS national account which used to be Shipt, these are great fillers and surge quickly to provide them better service, occasionally a wait at the pharmacy but not terrible, pays $9-15 usually for 2-4 miles, this is the only reason I open the App anymore, owned by UPS the customer service is terrible and so is the pay, there's an opportunity to improve this with the ownership, hoping they do some day?
Walmart they are cheaper. Home depot it good. But u Need a cargo van. .. small cars. Does not work
Extra extra large and huge gigs are the only way you're going to make money. Trucker van I made 1500 in 2 weeks on average about 4 hours a day easy money
I live near the airport and I typically start in the cell lot no later than 5:15 AM. One of the airlines typically posts several gigs by 5:30. The other day orders were popping like crazy and STUPIDLY I offered on several (4-5) so I could combine them. I literally had 16 HUGE bags ( many weighing 75 + lbs) in my van. It took about 3 hours to complete the gig and made OVER $30 + an hour. It is AFTER Christmas week so it was a bit crazy. FYI…it kicked my butt honestly. I am 66 years old and in good shape but it was ROUGH. No one tips for delayed luggage. In my opinion the luggage/airport gigs COMBINED are the only gigs worth my time.
I have success in the late night rx orders going to nursing homes. Typically they pay up to $60 for 30 miles on the interstate
If Walmart puts a order on roadie, beware!!!
Walmart doesn't put good measurements in.
But it won't fit in a normal car
Think about how many other people are bidding on this one gig. Only 1 person can get accepted and its not like it knows or feels bad if you’ve been bidding and have gotten declined
Too many orders were already picked up? The pay sucks and there so few of them where I live. I rarely do orders for them. You can back out of the order tho!
That is exactly my experience on roadie... I would see a quick CVS pick up at a pharmacy ...submit your offer ..rejected submit another offer rejected... you like yo why can't I get an offer and why do I have to wait 10 to 15 minutes to be rejected...no thanks
Well men its like that. Roudue guvie to the closer one. Best to do is go to Walmart and wait on the parking lot ... then u get delivereds.
i signed up and got activated for it but all the offers are garbage so i never saw a RHodie good offer...these offers remind me of the walmart "opportunities" orders on uber eats
Aldo Mike.
If you have a cargo van or a dolly, there is massive potential to earn on roadie.
$60 for 5 miles short of thing.
They are huge orders.
Couches, pallets, etc
Who gets the couch out of the vehicle? Sounds like a stupid question but I’m a woman with a van and can do this type of work if I don’t have to lift over fifty pounds. Thanks for the reply 😊
Some Roadie support or pit crew are not professional and they don’t know how tough it is to deliver items to recipient.
even if you set your vehicle they still try to give you orders bigger then your vehicle i drive a prius and its set and i still get huge orders
Here's my advice for Roadie. Use only if you have to. Support is a complete joke and they'll cancel orders on you after being accepted with zero information why. if you don't respond in 4 minutes to their chat they will close it on you and you start all over. You wait an hour for them and they give you 4 minutes. Their new chats do not bring up notifications either. if you back out of the chat session to check for more gigs, you have to go through their chat bot again to get back to the chatting screen. It's like they don't want you to get help.
Manitowac Wisconsin don't have no no roadie offers in the area
I’ve tried submitting bids on Roadie over 30x over the course of several weeks, all were denied. Still haven’t been able to get my FIRST bid approval. I’m out.
Have you heard of omortech recovery services ?
youre right about reaching out to support - i been doing gopuff for over 2 years and it always work - ive also done 6 cities and 3 states with them - always get hours but some reason my home town / home base that citi is not getting any hours - soooo im going to contact support - just waiting to see if the manager on site can get it happening first
btw rhoadie was ok when i was doing it but yes the rejection suck and i have a van with all seats into the floor - plus next to the location having the bid on
🤣 I tried man, everything got rejected.
So what delivery apps are better to use than Roadie?
Mike is looking rough. What happened? Is he okay?
If you’re too far it’s definitely a no if there are other drivers unless there are none
My experience is totally different. I make 200 a day and don’t do a lot of driving. I do Home Depot deliveries in my area. I have work under 8 hours. I drive a minivan. Also I master my market and have experience with roadie. I know how to filter the BS and do trips that are worth it. Also Roadie give you 45 minutes to get to a stop after getting accepted so you can multi app. Keep sleeping on Roadie please. 😂😂😂
So delivering large items to apartment/office buildings also?
Sometimes with Rhodie i drive towards the bid I submitted and might get the gig. Maybe like Uber radar others are bidding too. So I multi app and whoever responds with best Gig offer I go with. Rhode bids you can remove yourself from or cancel an offer
the only gigs on Roadie worth taking are the CVS orders. 10-12 bucks for 2-3 miles the rest of it is a joke
the tire deliveries are a striaght 50 cents/mile ONE WAY
yes, just started getting some Walmart gigs via Roadie
also now getting Lowe's orders via UE
Walmart losing a fortune on deliveries. they getting desperate to figure it out
I delivered 2 bags of hershey kisses last night from Walmart, via Uber Eats 8 miles for $37. who is paying for this nonsense?
i feel like I am being trolled half the time. half the orders a couple bucks for 20 miles, the other half 30,40,50 bucks for 8-10 miles
Oh ya gotta give it some time......maybe another try then dump the crap....these apps take half of everything for nothing!!
The Roadie pit crew like it if you drive an hour to the pick up location
hi mike, want ask you if you don't mind, can i reapply for doordash after been deactivated ? if yes what is the requirements please. thank you
How do you all keep your spark orders separate from each other when delivering multiple orders?
Trunk largest order.
Back seat and back floor board next largest order.
Front seat and floorboard smallest order.
We have DD for pick up for Walmart and sometimes Uber I prefer the Uber ones there pay is better 🇨🇦
I use Spark for WM
Seems to me, they don’t pay any money! It ain’t worth it
Roadie is straight trash in my area. I've only seen one offer worth it in 2 months. Needless to say i rarely turn it on anymore. Just not worth the time and effort
Roadie driver support is the worst
Half the jobs you will wait and wait and not get paid
My Walmart's come in on Uber if I am in the area. OH
It's not gone take that long, depends on how u drive ,if u knw ur area,,😮
I get Walmart Uber Package orders
Roadie is great. The only thing that sucks. Is that if you’re somebody who’s attentive to the app and always checking it it’s not first come first serve when a job pops up you could be the first one to apply for it because you’re being attentive and alert to the app and you still won’t get selected that’s what sucks about it. It should be first come first serve
Delivering all that for $20 is laughable. 😂
Other than Spark all of my Walmart requests here have been through Uber eats
Roadies not that bad I make up to 400 a day on gods days bad days it’s 250. Just got to srudy the app and you can’t loose
Some Roadie support or pit crew are treating drivers as slave. They like to use deactivation as their game
As much as I want to like this app I will gladly take Uber Eats over Roadie
He can finish that in an hour and a half
Heck just getting orders from roadie is a feat unto it self
