How Much Can I Earn in 8 Hours Delivering Uber Eats?

Sup, guys? How we doing? Another public holiday and another day driving Uber Eats to see just how much money we can make in a period of time. And at this point it's undisclosed. I don't I don't know how long um I'm going to be working for today, but we're out here. I've got my first order. It's McDonald's. And it is going to be paying me $20, which is a really nice start. 20 bucks and change for 14 and 1/2 km. So, uh it's What is it? 8:37 at the moment. There's a quest that begins at 9:00. It's Easter Monday, 9:00 Monday morning. It goes until Thursday night at 11:59 p.m. So, and the first uh tier of the quest is 60 trips. So, the only way I've got any hope of achieving any quest this week is uh is through multiple days of work and just stacking those those trips until I reach at least 60 trips in the next 4 days. Will that happen? Only time will tell, but what I do know is that I'm not going to achieve any quest um any quest uh today between 8:00 when I started and um and 4:00 and at least 4:30 because there is another quest that begins at 4:30. It goes till 9:30 and um it offers you a certain amount of money for 12 trips. So, from the hours of 8:00 till 4:30 there will be absolutely no quests um achieved. And so, it's just going to be straight base fare earnings plus tips. Plus tips, but I will say in Australia, tips are few and far between. So, we are out here. We have some Mickey D's on board. I'm going to deliver it, and our kitty after about half an hour of online time will read $20 and a few cents. So, as we move through the day, I'll have my great pleasure of updating you guys. And hopefully by then I will be fully awake because at the moment I'm not. Um but yeah. It's a nice day out here, blue sky. The mornings in Townsville are getting slightly more crisp as the weeks go on towards winter and I am a massive fan of that. So, let's get going, guys. There's only one way to earn money in this game. That is to be in it. You got to be in it to win it. You never know what order's around the corner. So, let's just hope for the best. It's Easter Monday. I don't know what type of business a public holiday's going to bring in. I don't think I've ever worked public holiday. So, I suppose it's just a matter of hoping that most places are open, which I think they are. Or it could be McDonald's and Burger King all day. Either way, I'll see you guys later. All right, so we got a bit of an interesting one. I I got a I got a McDonald's order for 10 bucks for 10 K's. I thought, well, look. I had about 15 minutes to spare before the quest for the week starts. So, I took it and on the way to McDonald's I got an additional order to Office Works to pick up a four-pack of Monster Energy Drinks and six large packing boxes. So, I don't know what this fellow is doing, but it seems he needs some energy to pack something. And they've actually sent me there first. So, I'm going to Office Works. I'm going to pick up that. Then I'll go to McDonald's to pick up that. Deliver both orders. That'll be three orders done. And the best thing about it is I got paid 10 bucks for the first $17 for the OfficeWorks order. So, um you know, whether it's I could have denied it. I could have waited until the quest started to get my $3 extra per order effectively. Um but [clears throat] I didn't. So, $17 for uh 4 1/2 K's, I am never going to say no to that. The only catch could be this this order does seem a little too good to be true. And when that happens, it's usually because the place is closed. And the order just gets cycled and cycled and cycled until, you know, eventually it it sort of goes off the Uber Eats map. So, hopefully it's open. If it is, happy days. If not, we move on. I'll let you guys know. >> left on Walkers >> All right, guys. I'll tell you what, you wouldn't believe it, but for the very first time we have packing boxes being delivered through Uber Eats. I have never picked these up before. I've picked up I've picked up Monster Energy drinks plenty of times in the past, but I've never had packing boxes. So, there you go. $17 for 4 1/2 km, six packing boxes, and one single one single can of uh Monster Energy drink. They must have just thrown that in there. So, we've got the goods, man. We've got the goods. The store did open just as I got there. So, that was lucky. And now we're off to Maccas for the second time today. Um and then the next order we take, being that it has ticked over to 9:00, we'll be working towards the quest, although that is not going to be achieved today. Thanks, guys. See you soon. Right, guys. We're sitting at 47:17, three trips completed, 9:22 in the morning. >> on Bristol Street. >> I began this at about 10:08. 9:22, 47 bucks in the bank. I can't complain with that. I've just taken just taken [clears throat] my first pack and deliver order. Not ideal. Not ideal, but it is a double stacker. So, I've got two pack and delivers, 13 total items paying $27. And if that's not a good deal for you, then I don't know what would be. It was either $20 or $27. Either way, we'll get these two shopped, delivered, and move forward. Right guys, just checking in. It is 10:34. We've at this for over 2 hours now, and we've completed six trips, four of which are going towards the week's quest, which begins at 65. But for anyone wondering, seven trips, my mistake. $94.03 in coming up 2 and 1/2 hours. So, we've been all over the place, to be honest. We've been picking up picking up packing boxes, um pet toy, uh McDonald's, some Mexican, some shop and delivers at a supermarket, and I think that's about it. So, nothing's coming through at the moment. I might just try and swing into the city somewhat, but an order will come through. It's inevitable. It's it's This is not like DoorDash. I think DoorDash you've got to be you know, they make I I think overall they may pay higher per order or per kilometer, but you've got to wait for them. And Uber is Uber's Uber's the way to go, for me at least. I do have an account with with DoorDash. It hasn't really been used, to be fair. Um I guess it's there just just in case something happened with the Uber app or whatever, and I still wanted to make some money, but for me, Uber Eats is where it's at. What's up, guys? Eight bucks. Eight bucks for 6 Ks. Mhm. Not right now. Um what do we what do we got? It's 11:50. We have done 11 trips. And we've earned $127.09 without completing a single quest. So that's averaging over $10 per order. Uh which is which is about where I like to be. Unless I'm chasing down a quest. So um it's 11:50. We started at 10 past 8. 20 more minutes, we'll be at 4 hours. 127 bucks. If we can If we can get another 10 $12 order that I can complete in the next 20 minutes, that'll get us up to 140-ish in 4 hours. Less petrol. And for anyone wondering, I did just fill up my tank. It is full. I don't do that often. I thought, why not? Um it cost me 130 smackeroonies. Just for anyone wondering. 130 bucks for something like 570 to 600 km. Give me a Tesla, man. All right, we're sitting at $148.43. It's 12:51. We've been online for 4 hours and 40 minutes. And I'm making a really bad a bad mistake at the moment. I am I'm declining anything that's under $10 and I'm declining anything where the kilometers are more than the dollars paid. And what that means at the moment in this particular market on this particular day at this particular time is that I'm literally declining every single order that comes through. So I'm sitting here on the side of the road doing nothing. So I got to I got to I got to break out of that mindset, man, big time. It's just really hard to accept that accept something for any less than like $8. Put it that way. Even if it's going to take 15 minutes, it's 3 or 4 km, it's like Uh >> [clears throat] >> I'm just not in that mindset, but I need to be. And so, sit on the side of the road for long enough not earning any money burning petrol because I need the air con on. You're going to start accepting things. So, um the morning was was fruitful. See, look at this. $5 $5 is 2.1 km. But, I just I just can't do it. I'm not I'm not in that frame of mind right now. I might be on Thursday when I'm mowing down the remainder of of the quest um because I do plan on it's 65 trips for $160 through Monday through Thursday. So, if I will get to 65 trips by Thursday. I'll make sure of that. Um Yeah, we'll deny that. But, um for today, as far as the quest is concerned we're 11 of 65 through. So, I I'm not going to go home until I at least hit 20 trips, which will be 23 total for the day. Um so, we've got nine more trips to go. And with nine more trips, I'm hoping at least 100 bucks will go home with around 250 less petrol. We'll see. But, like I said like like I said, I've I've just denied two more trips. I've been pack and deliver is kind of off the table for me at the moment. Anything under 10 bucks is off the table. Anything with kilometers higher than than dollars is off the table. And basically, from this moment on, all of those three types of order have to be back on the table or else this isn't this isn't going to happen. And you'll find yourself in situations like this. So, you just got to get going. It's like, once you accept the order, okay, sweet. Well, we're off now. We're driving. And driving is the name of the game. That's that's If we're driving, we're either driving to pick something up or driving to deliver something. And at the end of the day, that is where we make money. So, I need to accept something. And I need to accept it soon. Come on, man. Please. Come on, bro. Come on. Be nice. Give me some Give me a 20 a $20 order. I mean, I'd go pack and deliver for 20 bucks. All right. Well, I'll see you guys at $200. How's that? We're at 148.43. All right. So, I took a bit of my own advice and started taking the low-hanging fruit. And we have reached uh 255. I've got two orders with me. One McDonald's order Oh, sorry. Hungry Jack's. And a uh Coles uh click and collect order. So, once I've delivered these two, it'll take me to 22 total trips today, and we will hit the $200 mark. So, it's 2:56. I should get rid of these within 15 minutes. And that'll take us over the 7-hour mark officially. I've got something to do today. Once again, that's the flexibility of this. Um I've got something to do at 3:30, so I should yeah, drop these off and be in the vicinity of of my appointment um just before it just before it starts. So, I'll go to the appointment, and then I'm going to I think I'm going to head home after that. So, this video will be titled something along the lines of how much can I earn on Easter Monday or on a Monday without quests in 7 hours. And we have um we've answered that question. Just over 200 bucks. But, the specifics I will run through after we're finished. All right, guys. We have officially logged off, and we have officially arrived home. I went a little bit longer than I'd expected. I started my kilometers uh trip meter at the beginning, exactly when I left the house. And uh I've just arrived back to the house. So, this is This is exactly how many k's I've driven. And exactly what the fuel efficiency has been, and exactly how much money we have indeed made. So, okay. So, that's actually the next quest um that we were Well, that we we could possibly do, but um So, that's 4:46. We began at 10:08, but I did have to stop at about 3:30 to do something. Then I jumped back in my car and continued. I wasn't finished yet. But um $258.17, 27 total trips. We are indeed at the Uber Eats platinum level for another 3 months, which is good. So, $258.17, 27 trips. And if we come down here, uh we'll look at driving time. So, we have been driving for 8 hours and uh 26 minutes. 8 hours and 26 minutes, $258.17. We'll see what what the breakdown is. It's Yeah, 8 hours 27 minutes active time, 7 hours 11 minutes, 27 trips. We've got $258.17 net fare, no tips, and no promotions. As well as that, we have driven a total of 183.6 km at an average of 10.2 L per k. So, let's call it 10, and let's call it 180. So, that would be 18 L, and I paid 220 220 for a liter. So let's just call it 18 L 220 40 bucks. Something like that. Let's call it 40 bucks. So $258.17 less about $40 is 200 Let's call it 220. I'm going to give myself the benefit of the doubt. $220 from 8 and 1/2 hours. No quests, no tips. Well, 8 * 3 is 24. So we're at, you know, between Yeah, I mean it's between 28 28 and $30 an hour. All of that will be revealed in the next uh slide with the breakdown of of everything, but no quests, um almost $30 an hour, 27 trips completed, and and 24 of those towards my 65 trip quest, which will pay $156. I'll just give you a quick look at that. This is basically what I'm going to be working towards over the remainder of the week. 24 of 65 156. The next five after that pay $26, which is over, you know, $5.20 per trip, which is really good. The next 10 is 42, which is 420 per trip, which is really good. 25 So they've they've kind of they've got us They've got us doing the bulk of the work for less than $3 extra per trip. And then once you get to 65, then you can sort of reap the rewards. But I mean, 70 80 To do 105 trips over four days is actually quite a lot. You've got to be willing to put in the the hours. And um And that's what I've always said. You know, if you're willing to put in the hours in this game, you will earn the money. Some days are going to be better than others. Today was interesting. 8 and 1/2 hours. And uh 200 258 dollars less expenses. So, call it what you will. Is it a good day out? I don't know. Could have been better. Will today's efforts flourish on, I'd say, Wednesday when we finally meet meet that quest? Yes. And an extra 156 dollars in my account is is going going to be um much appreciated. Either way, I've got to go home. I've got kids that are waiting on me. I'm I'm an hour later than I said I was going to be. I'll hear about it. But um hey, I just went out earning money, not spending it. So, that's a win. It's school holidays. It's first day of school holidays, effectively. Monday being Well, it is a public holiday. So, tomorrow would be the first day of school holidays. And then I've got 2 weeks um to uh try and entertain these kids whilst making a living and working two jobs and all the rest of it. So, thanks for watching, guys. The breakdown will be coming next, and I will see you in the next one.
