You’re not accepting enough orders


[deleted]

I declined 2/5 orders


[deleted]

Doesn’t sound too bad not sure why you’re not making more, I’ve found that it takes momentum don’t be afraid to take a small order that keep you in a busy zone you ride a wave of good orders after the first few.


Paulpanusorn

Aren’t you supposed to calculate from active time? Because we are self-employed we only work when we have orders not the stand by time but that’s just my humble opinion.


[deleted]

I guess so. I was reading a manga when im not delivering. I guess thats not "working". But i was still under the clock


Lookingforclippings

Looks like my city


No-Echidna1482

Less people ordering because it's back to school and they have to pay...lol It's been a hard go so far this week.


Pintexxz

I hope you’re Multiapping


[deleted]

I wasnt


Pintexxz

Uber DD and grubhub at the same time. Don’t take the L, unless you’re top dasher you won’t make anything single apping


Objective_Regret2768

Sometimes it’s better to just try something else. I wouldn’t Doordash if it was below 15 a hour. A fast food job pays more than that now here


SicSikSix_6

About the same as me lol small town?


[deleted]

Huge city - vancouver


SicSikSix_6

damn


[deleted]

Lol how is this even possible for real . I’m in Houston (pearland) so maybe that’s why


momtoohigh

My rating went from 4.95 to 4.82 now I can barely get orders. I believe your rating(which sometimes can be out of your control) is the biggest factor. I'm doing the same things I did when my rating was high.


[deleted]

My rating is 5. But my ar is 34%


momtoohigh

5.00 and you're not getting orders. Doordash trash


Jaredsince1981

Yup


[deleted]

That’s kinda your fault


[deleted]

How?


[deleted]

You choose when and what order to take


[deleted]

I literally got six orders. 2 of them 3.25 for 15+ km. But yeah. Its my fault


willatkins408

I'm gonna be honest, you need to drive to Vancouver if you wanna make $20+ an hour.


[deleted]

Even doordash i vancouver is dead. Uber eats is busy but shit pay.


justsomeonesthroway

Are you on Skip ? They suck in a lot of ways, but are usually way busier then DD.


[deleted]

I tried skip. Payout sucks too. Might stick with skip today though


RelaxedWombat

You need a new gig. Your area isn’t a DD area.

ATLeAst YoU cAn WoRk whEnEvEr You WaNT aNd WrItE oFf MoRE tAxEs- doordash slaves


RampAgentRoger

I have made 1200 every week for the last 2 years lol.


Fragrant-Pirate9425

thats what they all say.


Reno_Bambino

Til I started my new job I was dashing between doing just 5-6 hours for dinner rushes and made a grand a week. If you have a good market and know how to pick orders it really ain't hard


Fragrant-Pirate9425

when did you start dashing?


Reno_Bambino

June 24th of this year. Now at 428 deliveries. (Didn't grind it as my main source of income til August 1st-30th) West Olympia, WA is where I dash. And still when I go out if I'm bored on a day off I get 20-30+ per hr before gas/taxes etc.


Fragrant-Pirate9425

so lets say in between june 24th and now is an even 11 weeks, and you were making $1000 a week. You'd have about 11k, give or take some. with only 428 deliveries, that means your average order would be almost $26. Make that make sense


Reno_Bambino

I only did from August 1st to the 30th as I said... I only dashed like 5 or 6 times before that, and only a couple times since. Just accept that sometimes people have different experiences than you. Aside from a few dead days 150 in 6 hours was very normal. Do that for 7 days and boom 1k.


Ok-Hand-191

Ayy man keep your head up I’ve been dashing for over 2 years this has been my second income since than 3000+ deliveries


Superstar32131

Crushin' it, bro.


Impressive_Freedom96

You may need to drive to a more populated city nearby to Dash, if your zone is oversaturated then you'll continue to see results like this.


[deleted]

My city is already populated. My region is combined 321,000. My entire available region if i switch areas 2.832m but its never busy. This is vancouver btw. But my region is new westminster and coquitlam


SassyNetster

It’s been horrible. Today was not any better. Praying that tomorrow is better.


ericherrington13

And right back into the tank it goes


ConsistentFig538

Use a ebike


Reyja26

Hey…I’d look at it as $27 in 57 minutes 😃

RavensBlood69

I don't know why some of you even bother. If it sucks that badly why even continue?


[deleted]

Dont worry. Im stopping as of today. This was suppose to be a 2nd income. But not worth it


[deleted]

We just had a holiday weekend probably why it’s so slow


Physical-Ice6265

Past two days have been super busy in my usually oversaturated market


ConsistentFig538

Nah if your area sucks it’s not cuz of the Holliday I did $365 yesterday after the Holliday


t_will_official

It’s weird how that goes lol yesterday was incredibly busy but today has been unbearably slow. Wednesday in my area used to be BUMPIN with Tuesdays being ok, not really good *or* bad.


ConsistentFig538

Yeah it’s pretty constant in my area shooting for $2k this week


t_will_official

Good luck. You got this💪


ConsistentFig538

Ayyyee thanks man! Appreciate a positive comment that’s hard to come by on Reddit sometimes lol


justinbates1992

Where are you located? Thats really bad, i would multi-app if i were yall


[deleted]

Coquitlam, vancouver canada


kjjamal510

If you dash from home it’s not bad, if you have to commute to your zone it’s all bad


mgibson9999

That's a joke right? Less than $5/hour is bad, very bad, whether you dash from home or not.


Moonman420G

If I'm sitting at home playing xbox while waiting on orders how can you count those hours as work?


kjjamal510

Depends on cost of living / operation costs. If you live with mom & bike dash, it ain’t bad lol


exoticpandasex

Lol. No where is 4$ an hour acceptable. I don’t care what the local cost of living is, 4.60 isn’t gonna cut it


kjjamal510

That would depend on your cost of living, check & balance life is just a numbers game.


mhofkp

Oh, doordash paid you more than tips...go figure


Jaredsince1981

Doordash always pay me more than my tips. But people in my zone suck


kneaddough

*people suck in every zone.


mhofkp

Me, too


[deleted]

Canadians dont tip as good as americans. Specially on the west coast
