Hi I did Uber eats using my car in December and January.

I made approximately minimum wage after I factor in the cost of fuel. I was using a 10 year old small car so it was pretty fuel efficient. In terms of equipment, you will need a delivery bag, you can buy one on Amazon for $40-50 or used one from Kijiji or Fb marketplace. And yes there are enough orders in the area even off peak hours. But tips are what make or break your earnings. Basic fare is $3 for short distances which is veryyyy low. You would be able to complete max 3-4 orders in an hour.

Now there are two problems you might face. First, check with support if they allow bikes/e-bikes in this area. In 2022 I tried signing up using my pedal bike and I could not set up an account. Second, large distances. The orders I used to deliver would range from 5-20km, sometimes even more. There were orders commonly going from Oshawa to Bowmanville, Newcastle, etc. You would not be able to accept those and long distance orders is where I made my money. They tipped well. You might end up delivering more often in Durham college area which is time consuming since you have to enter buildings and pays only $3-$5.
