New Uber Eats Driver ONLY Accepts LOW Orders | First Shift

[@boohere2]

Las Vegas is literally bad for Uber Eats. I seen this other delivery driver who constantly got no tippers and just bad offers on there. I expect it'll be the same thing for him. I haven't gotten a Walmart deliver no, but I do see them in the opportunity section for pick ups only. There is a Walmart in another city 20 minutes away from me,but I don't really see orders for there. Lately for myself I had been doing Safeway grocery pick ups ONLY. No shopping required. I just load the grocery bags in my car & go drop off. Some of these customers tip huge! Sometimes the base bay is so high as well. They usually come in the very early mornings. Look in the opportunity section like at 4am, 5am or 6am in the morning to see if any Walmart orders are there for you to snag. Just push accept as fast as you can assuming the pay is good.

[@countrylivingwithchickens560]

Uber eats so much better and Cherry pick your orders. I turn my app on at my house and I'm about 7 Miles from the grocery stores and food and I cherry pick my orders. They start coming in really low at about $10 and if I deny them they keep coming back and I eventually deliver a 7-mile order for like 38 to $42

[@gotchaawesome2407]

I will tell you exactly why this is happening. I personally know someone who works at Uber corporate, he told me it's like a monopoly.. Uber create fares as low as possible because there are millions of people doing Uber. That creates desperation to accept any Fair no matter how low it is! The more people do Uber the lower the earnings because the company has the upper hand.

Not just online is business miles. My accountant told me to track ALL of the miles, including coming home after a delivery.

[@ebonitalks]

[@daves2058]

My acceptance rate is steadily going down because of the shear number of Costco orders with ridiculous mileage. Costco takes way too long to find parking, shop, and fight through the checkout line. Ubereats in my area seems to have a love affair with Costco! They send one ridiculous order after another, like $12 for 28 miles, taking 55 minutes. In reality, it will take an hour and a half! I just keep declining them.

[@danguts2844]

Those are cannon ball runs, they are not designed to really make money but for a stranggler to make a few dollars as he/she was headin that way to see the grandmother etc....How I make money off them high milelage low payin runs is that the fact I will take an uber eats order going 12 miles for 8 dollars because I can pick up my catering order in that town making 42 dollars that hour and deliver that to my doordash zone by 11:30 am and continue on that shift!!!!

I'm just now learning that there's a whole niche on youtube of gig drivers. And everyone seems to agree that $2/mile is the goal or their standard to meet. Meanwhile I've been tipping food delivery based on mileage for years now (even before apps started suggesting tips based on it) and $2/mile is always my minimum just for the tip. It's what I consider equivalent to a 15% or 20% tip at a sit down restaurant. Does my tip get included in the driver's up front offer amount? If so it sounds to me like I'm a customer that makes for good or even great $/mile offers and that makes me happy lol.

[@RD-ce6bb]

I cannot believe that someone is willing to start their car engine 3 times and drive 2 miles for $4 ...essentially $3 profit max after expenses. It cannot be out of desperation for money ( because they aren't making any) It can only be ignorance.

I've chosen a busy street uptown and I get really good tips there, 60% of time versus an area I use to work that was as low as 30%. It sucks you but have to experiment a lot and be really picky, especially on mileage.

When I first started,I was taking just about anything It was an adrenaline rush taking all these runs But,having to shut the app off to get gas got old. I figured it out A year later,I am making way more than ever and it keeps getting better!

[@joe8513]

KC area, lot of walmart orders, and I usually don't take them. When I do, I generally end up cancelling after waiting 5-10 minutes (>5 only if it's a really high paying order). In the offer they estimate number of bags: "1-5 bags", "5-10 bags" etc. Since "1-5 bags" always ends up being at least 8-10, I seldom take "5-10" orders and never anything bigger. However, I once made $38 to deliver a single can of formula 10 miles. I can only assume it was making good on a UE or spark delivery gone wrong and Uber or WM ate the expense.

[@kleangreen596]

The key is doing low $5 or $6 dollar orders for under 5 miles. You can do 3 of those in a hour. Why do a $10-12 dollar order with 10 miles or more that's gonna take you 1 hour to complete? Also learn and stop accepting orders from restaurants you know that take forever to prepare the food. Time is literally money in food delivery!

[@Oroo420]

I started today, made $98(-$10 gas) but would have been more cuz I got tip baited 5 times out of 12 deliveries. Also had massive issues with the app (right at dinner rush start) not letting me verify orders, confirm deliveries and more often than not...no navigation and had to use google. Heck it wouldnt let me take a photo NOR confirm delivery as a result on my last stop of the day. I think my phone might be too old though. So upgrading tomorrow. All in all, I am happy with it as I averaged 18.5/hr which is more than enough to pay my bills. I also had an issue where I had a very minor fender bender (neither of us are claiming) before even picking up the delivery I was headed to, but it would not let me cancel the order. Orderee couldn't cancel either so I agreed to still deliver it 45min late. It was still warm and she was suuuuuper nice and understanding about it. The worst moment for deliveries was accepting a $25 offer and getting to the location in less than 3min and someone had picked it up already? Why is it sending multiple drivers after the same offer?

[@EMan-cu5zo]

I had one take the tip away and I asked Uber to block the person from showing up on my requests. They said they did so let’s hope. I can’t remember the address unless I have done it many times. Taking away the agreed price should be illegal. When you take the order you agree to do the job for the agreed amount of money. If I had a job done at my house and after the people are finished i decided to only pay half of what I said I would. Would that be legal? No, if they finished the job then you have to pay the price you agreed to pay. I should take this person to court even though it would cost a lot it’s the fact that this is allowed. It’s illegal in any other job. If I was getting my car fixed and I told the shop I am only paying half of what I said I would they would laugh at my face and keep my car. Ridiculous

I had someone zero out an almost $7 after delivering it well ahead of the original estimated time. I was really annoyed with that one and ended up with the base $2 for like a 3 mile delivery. I usually see at least a few WalMart ones on the weekends, which is when I mostly get a chance to go out. Overall since starting in Feb. I haven't had many issues with my Uber deliveries and in most cases if the tip changes it is to be increased or the occasional extra cash on delivery. The other weekend I had a delivery for about $10 and it was heading back towards home after being dragged around for a while so I grabbed it. Delivered and got a $20 cash tip on top of it. I'm about 60 miles West of Chicago so sometimes the pay isn't as high as I'd like having some deliveries that will take me out of the town, but those are usually the ones that have the best chance of my tip being increased after the fact it seems.

Very good ... I started with UE pilot years ago and the pay has dropped so much. Entering back out and I feel like a rookie again. I like UE because I'm not limited to an area but it would be nice if the area was profitable. I hate having to cherry pick these orders when they first started UE pick ups for restaurants. It was easy to make about $250 a day. The pilot UE they paid us hourly during lunch with a curbside curated menu. It was nice to be chosen and introduced me to other drivers and filled in the time between the drivers rush. Everything has come a long way now. More drivers and less pay smh😢 I averaged $6 hr today with over 8 hrs and only made $90 which $50 was from tips and a $38 fill up. Hence bottoming. I knew I better do some homework and figure out the best strategy for rightnow and probably get away from my immediate market which can get rural quickly. I was thinking atleast $1 per mile and minimum $7 . There were times I slightly deviated because I was trying to get out of the woods and figured why not 🤨. Shouldn't have to figure out a strategy if they just paid atleast a $1 per mile and not have us depending on tips. Thank you for this video ❤

If you end up near West Mifflin you'll get a steady blast of Walmart pickups. Plan for a minimum of 10 minutes waiting in the lot though, at least from my experience (and why I generally pass on them)

[@rg1339]

What drivers especially new drivers don't understand is taking low paying backwards orders hurts all drivers, as long as someone is willing to take these orders why would Uber change.

[@DebraLaMel]

I had a delivery from Uber Eats. It was eight dollars and change for like 5 miles but then they had an add-on for $4.82 for 12 miles. I don’t like to accept add-ons.

[@bitemetorrent]

A customer said I tampered with her food and of course that’s not true but now I’m not getting any orders.

[@dannyc5389]

its amazing how customers are concerned with drivers tampering with food and yet they trust the person preparing it

[@Soccermom1018]

Always refute the customer claims. More customers are claiming food never delivered. I was told by door dash to take a pic of every order on phone to prove delivery.

[@fr33_candy]

Uber definitely punishes. Your cancel rate goes up 1 point per cancellation. And if you ignore a request it doesn't effect you. But if you it the "x" to silence it twice your acceptance rate goes down one point

[@Shantanano]

Walmart Orders pop up on mine all the time. Money is garbage.

[@johnwilliams4806]

Honestly this guy is only making videos and not being honest… Uber , grubhub door dash… these jobs are only good for gas money… hope you don’t have bills doing this crap..

[@Snerdles]

I always take the dollars minus one and multiply by 3 and then estimate the number of minutes it will take. 5 dollar order, that's 4 * 3 or 12 minutes. If I think it will be reliably less than 12 minutes I might take a small order. If it's too close or easily ober 12 minutes that's a no. This way it allows for a 3 minute buffer between orders and 3 minutes per dollar is 20 bucks an hour gross. I generally have my low cutoff at 6 bucks though, since it's very rare that a 4 dollar order will take less than 9 minutes.

[@Snerdles]

This driver you featured really needs to figure out complete running costs of a vehicle. A jeep is going to cost something like 50 cents a mile in maintenance, insurance/fees, depreciation, and propulsion. The AAA cost estimator puts a Jeep Rubicon at 20k miles a year at 88 cents a mile... Using it for delivery will be more miles so it will average down a bit, but that is really not a good delivery vehicle He'd probably make more money just buying a used little ultra-efficient hatch and drive that for delivery.

[@DarnellJenkins]

Walmart early saturday or sunday from like 8am - 10am is full of uber eats orders

[@FireyGirl_InChrist]

I live in cheyenne Wyoming, and walmart is very popular out here, so much that we have 2 stores!😂 I do pretty good with eats and ride share and shop n pays. On waiting lists for instacart and order gig apps. Uber's my go-to for now and how i get the walmart orders, which are typically not too bad if it's stacked. My new car gets great gas mileage, too, so that helps.

[@joanneglispie9394]

We have a ton of Walmart deliveries for UberEats in NW Indiana.

[@danguts2844]

Same here, I live in Minnesota and the best I did was 60 dollars in 1hr on uber eats doing walmart drop offs!!! Sometimes Id get a catering order on uber eats that paid 30 dollars for 18 minutes of work and sometimes Id see uber walmart trip radars that paid 75 dollars for 55 minutes of work or 80 dollars for 1hr and 30 minutes of work but I never took them because I couldnt see where they were going on the trip radar!!!!! The trip radar needs to go!!! LMAO end of story!!!!

[@rockylod_fit]

I am over here in cranberry and a good day is if you can make more than $.50 per mile it’s getting really bad. You’re literally making eight dollars per hour using your own vehicle and gas. ⛽️ I’m only doing it as a temporary means for instant money and that’s the only way I would recommend it. I have a screenshot after screenshot of two and three dollar orders. this is 2024. It’s sad.😢

[@jeanieashby2430]

Door dash in Vegas - stay away from the strip. I drive out to Summerlin. Tips are better out there.

[@thomaslabanca3366]

I like the Walmart order pick ups, I usually get a few a week not much lately but I only do $15 or more and I usually get a higher tip after that hour is done, they bring out the groceries to you and you just scan the customer that you’re picking up for And they load your car for you and usually not that far away so it’s worth miles ratio you talk about

[@thunderstormvideos6460]

Uber Eats? LOL I'm in a small market and I RARELY turn Uber on. When I do, I have it on for 4-5 hours and never get an order. I'm lucky if I get 1 or 2 orders a month on Uber! Not worth it in my market.

[@FireyGirl_InChrist]

Oh, I do have a question. Can someone tell me the difference between a "black box" order vs's a white box order? I still don't understand the difference 🤔

[@Plump_Nick]

I just got an order that didn’t show me the payout. What the hell is this about?

[@CuriousMind912]

In Vegas Summerlin south is the best big tips

[@XanianEmpire]

Mike. In Oakland what is the best Pho place? I never had authentic Ramen before but I need to try it!

[@bdiddy8239]

Pho is Vietnamese. Ramen is Japanese.

[@XanianEmpire]

@bdiddy8239 oh I didn't know! I want to try Pho though. What's the difference btw?

[@bdiddy8239]

@@XanianEmpire ramen is rich, some say little on the heavy side (greasier) pho is light, full of fragrant veggies/herbs. Both are noodle dishes, but very distinct.

[@XanianEmpire]

@@bdiddy8239 interesting!! Thank you! Have you been to those countries and tried their food?

[@dustibones9879]

What happens if the delivery pick-up and house are maybe 3 miles apart, but the driver is 8-10 miles from the restaurant. Does the customer have to pay for those extra miles?

[@AntoineLyles]

Yes we get walmart on uber eats for a few years now. They paying so low I don't even take the Walmart order no more do to long waits

[@clos3078]

Another Uber eats driver that will quit in a month after he sees the losses.

[@byte0663]

Walmart orders on UE are misleading took one that said 1-5 packages turned out to be 2 - 40 packs of water 4 12oz cans and junk food. Way more then 5 packages. Never again

[@thejdgoodwin]

I'm soooo glad I saved and invested for my retirement.

[@stuartmcalpine9468]

Not finding an apartment and giving up? WTF? That goes against the driver’s code. Don’t call the customer? Just give up? Never!!!

[@kiendoan3567]

This is all auto generated system. So if you accept low rate offers, the system will keep give you the same offers with the expectation that you will accept. So thank you for doing that because if you don’t, who else kk. I only accept offers that meet my conditions or I am home playing with my kid.

[@mattzarzana1865]

Also- they are likely for sending him the lower paying orders in hopes of getting them accepted by drivers who are brand new and just don’t know any better. I think a lot of these new drivers believe they have to accept these low-paying orders right upfront in order to get to the better orders with Uber eats I don’t believe that’s the case. I think Uber eats continue to send them orders because the algorithm tells Uber Eats that this driver will accept low paying order

[@davidk5093]

In my state it's really hard to make $100 in 5 hours. He did pretty good

[@sonyjoseph5426]

Uber eats is lousy in city , $6 for a 19 mile delivery . I shut that feature and focus on the meager rideshare only

[@hollyhooten2921]

I do not like how they take you to areas that are not safe for drivers on Uber and door dash

[@mariaggarcia00]

My husband just got a message from uber now they are going to be letting go drivers if you go above a 20%.

[@MrEjohnston]

Tip baiting should be illegal. I have a Uber Eats account but I have not made any deliveries yet. Tip baiting is fraud.

[@johno3288]

I want to see somebody multi-app on their 1st day. His 1st day: Not bad. But, he could make a lot more when he knows his market. Hanging around a Goodwill; not a good idea 😅
