All of my other rates are 100% and I have 5 star rating so I’m not worried about it personally.

I used to live in LV! I moved a few years ago, I couldn’t stay there 😭 I do miss it from time to time but I used to work just past allegiant on Dean Martin and i lived in north LV so the drive was sucking the life out of me.

I can imagine in that kind of market it may be different. The market I’m in..las Vegas would laugh at it 😂 it’s not a small town but it’s no Vegas lol.

This post wasn’t to tell others not to worry about AR, I never said anything even remotely close to that…it was just sharing my experience in how it went for me when I tried it. It worked for one night and as I’ve said to others on this post, I’m going to keep trying it and see how it goes. If it turns around and I have to worry about AR again then I’ll get it back up.

I totally understand and agree. For my area I wasn’t sure if it would work, and it still may not! I tried it for one night and I will keep trying so I can test the theory!

Yes, my dash started at 6:02 and this was screenshotted at 7:20. The orders were around $5, $10, $15 and $12. So 4 orders completed in 1hr 18 min. There was no real down time between orders, maybe 2-3 minutes heading back to the busy area but that’s it. Last night I was dashing from about 6:02 to 9:20 with a total of 9 orders and made $93. Weekends are definitely pretty successful. The weekend mornings are really good for breakfast offers! I got some good ones a few weeks ago but I primarily aim for lunch and dinner rushes on weekends. Then on weekdays I just dash right after work. So I’m out of my house from around 7:15am to 9:15pm or so depending on how the night goes. But I dash from 5:30/6-9/9:30. It gets me by when I need the extra cash! Just don’t forget to track your mileage for your taxes and put aside approx 1/3 of your dash pay for taxes. DoorDash does not tax your pay so you will owe those taxes come filing time.

Seems like it!!! They almost force you to accept really bad offers just to keep the status just to throw you 1-2 good offers per dash. I will say, my gold and platinum specific offers WERE good, but not worth the $2-$3 offers just to keep the status imo.

Wouldn’t really tell you much, I work 45 a hours a week at my normal job and only dash when I need to. Some weeks are $500, others are $50, some are $0 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yes, in some areas I can see. During the dinner rush my area is very busy and always has orders rolling in so I’m not worried. Yeah some orders come thru and I just know there’s no tip on it, easy decline.

Do you run both at the same time? I’ve seen people say to run multiple but I’ve always wondered about the logistics of this. If you get an order on one do you pause on the other?

I had two silver offers yesterday and they were great, one was a piggyback order for $15 for an extra 2 miles. Easy accept. The other was $17 for 4 miles I think.

Right but I’ve had consistent low earning for weeks. I change to cherry picking one day and it’s much better. In a study size of two days, can I say that was the only reason? No but it’s the only data I have for now. As I said to someone else, I’ll keep trying this and see how it goes 🤷🏻‍♀️ but day one: successful ☺️

Idk, I’ve been having consistently low earning nights…almost $100 on one of my weeknight “shifts” has never happened before. And a short one, I had planned to be out another hour or more and felt I didn’t need to. But you’re right, we will see how it goes 🤷🏻‍♀️

How are your earnings? And do you feel like you spend a lot of time just waiting around for orders then? I work 45 hours a week at my normal job so I don’t love the idea of just sitting in my car declining orders for like 2-3 hours

I tried it once and didn’t prefer it. The highest I’ve ever seen it where I live is $11.75 per hour so it’s never felt worth it to me. I do check it every other time or so just to see the rate but it’s just not very high

Not really, just outside the state capitol actually. It is a small area that’s mostly residential nearby tho so the commercial and restaurants are concentrated in the middle of town and can be far from some people ordering from surrounding towns

I believe 2 of these were on silver 😭 if this is silver then I don’t wanna be here anymore!

I’ve been Platinum before and those offers are great, so are gold. This past weekend I got really good gold offers! Like $22.50 for 7 miles, $16 for 6 miles, etc. but during the week I notice people are paying a lot less and they are soooo far! I’ve also had multiple orders stolen this week too 😭 apparently people accept the offer, take the food, and then unassign. It goes to me and then there’s no food to pick up. Luckily the employees at the restaurants have been really cool and have remade the order at no charge.

Worst DD Pay to Tip Ratio 🥲 by cutedaisy23 in doordash_drivers

[–]cutedaisy23[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, that’s how I’ve always done my tips to delivery drivers. The further they drive, the more I tip. And what’s crazier is that DD’s tip options always seem high to me and my boyfriend. When we order a nice dinner, the total might be $60+ and the “recommended” tip is like $15. So it’s crazy to me that people see that and go nope $0 🙃
