How to Make the Most Money with Delivery Services and Rideshare Apps
Delivery Services That Pay the Most: A Guide for New Drivers
Ridesharing and food delivery services are now big opportunities for people who work for themselves. Companies like Uber, Lyft, Grubhub, DoorDash, and Uber Eats lead the way. It’s key to know how much you can make, what taxes you’ll pay, and how to make the most of your work. This guide will show you how to succeed in these fields.
Uber drivers in the U.S. make about $33,000 a year on average. In places like St. Louis, one airport trip can make around $25, which is like doing two to three delivery jobs. In areas with lots of demand and not many drivers, you could make $20 to $30 an hour. But, delivery drivers might not make as much per hour because of where they are and how long they work.
Delivery services let you make more money per mile. By doing more deliveries on one trip, you can use your time better and make more from each delivery. But, there are problems like finding parking, dealing with traffic, working odd hours, and maybe making less than rideshare drivers.
Tracking Income and Expenses as a Self-Employed Driver
As a self-employed driver or delivery worker, it’s key to track your income and expenses well. This helps you get the most out of your tax deductions at tax time.
