Want to maximise your earnings as a Delivery Person with the Uber Driver app? It helps to know the best times to be online and out on the road. We checked in with and spoke to higher-earning Delivery People to find out what they do to maximise their earnings.
Here’s a handy guide to getting the most out of your time delivering with the Uber Driver app.
Popular spots and peak times to deliver
Delivery people who go online around lunch and dinner have shorter waits between requests, especially as we get closer to the weekend.
During the week, the busiest times are usually:
Weekdays between 11:00am and 2:00pm, especially around the CBD and business centres.
Weekdays between 5:30pm and 8:30pm, both in the CBD and out in the suburbs.
Demand on the Uber Eats app peaks on weekends:
Friday and Saturday nights between 5:00pm to 10:00pm, most of the demand is around your city’s main restaurant and nightlife hotspots.
Saturday and Sunday between 9:00am to 3:00pm, demand usually peaks during brunch and carries on through lunch.
Sunday all day, demand usually peaks at lunch and dinner but is generally busier than any weekday arvo.
