What Is the Best Time to DoorDash for Maximum Earnings?
Last updated
Ever wondered when the best time to DoorDash is to make the most money? Well, you’re not alone. Many Dashers and potential drivers ponder over this to maximize their earnings.
So, when exactly is the best time to hit the road and start dashing? Let’s dive into it.
Peak Times Mean More Money
Generally, the best times to DoorDash are during lunch and dinner hours. We’re talking about 11 AM to 2 PM for lunch and 4:30 PM to 8 PM for dinner. Why? Because that’s when people are hungriest and most likely to order food.
During these hours, there’s a high demand for food delivery, which means more orders for Dashers. And more orders mean more opportunities to earn money. Plus, DoorDash often has peak pay bonuses during busy times, adding extra bucks to your deliveries.
Weekends Are Your Friend
Another hot tip is to dash on weekends, especially Friday through Sunday. People tend to relax and order in on weekends, leading to an increase in orders. Besides, since not all Dashers want to work weekends, there’s less competition, making it easier for you to snatch those orders and earn more.
Also, don’t forget about special events or holidays. Big game day? Movie release night? These are golden opportunities to dash because everyone’s looking to munch on something delicious without missing out on the fun.
