Rossen Reports: Food delivery drivers spill secrets to get orders fast

Rossen Reports: Food delivery drivers spill secrets to get orders fast
Hi food delivery drivers are in a pinch. If you think the high gas prices are hurting you and they are think of them driving all day long burning through gas, think about it delivering food is getting more expensive for them. So now the drivers tell us they're getting picky about which food orders they accept. That's right. They can accept or decline. That means you may not get your food as fast but they shared some secrets with us to make sure your stuff doesn't come cold. Gas price mayhem is draining the wallets of food delivery drivers everywhere. I spend about $60 every day and I make about 150 between 100 and 50 and $200 a day. So I spent like half of it goes for a gas. I fill up $70 every three days. Now that means you could be feeling the struggle to while some apps are boosting pay, giving cash back rewards for drivers or even adding surcharges for customers, drivers are telling us it's just not enough tips and bigger delivery totals are now more important than ever. And if your total isn't high enough they can decline your delivery. We only take the good orders. So if the tips are low we don't even we just deny it. We don't even spend time. Here's what drivers can see on their end before accepting a delivery rossen reports reached out to grubhub telling us the driver can see the restaurant named the trip mileage and total amount including the potential tip Georgia's tells us, dashes can see the minimum amount they will learn on the delivery which includes the potential tip. We reached out to Uber but didn't hear back but the drivers tell us they can see the restaurant name the trip distance, how long the delivery will take. The total cost of the trip and the tip the customer decides upfront. This all gets me wondering if you order more food or tip higher. By the way this is my producer kelly. We're gonna do an experiment but if you order more food you bring that total up you tip higher. Will more drivers accept the order and therefore get your food to you faster than if you didn't. So we're gonna do an experiment where we're both online and we're going to order from the same restaurant. Show your pizza. We're ordering a 14" pizza. Okay 14" pizza. Same exact thing. But I am gonna tip $5 and you're gonna tip $1, Mhm. Let's see let's see whose food comes here first. We hit the order button at the same time order and wait my guys here. That's right. My order with the higher tip arrived first. What can we all do to get our food faster tip higher. So you take the job. So you choose if you're like that's not a great tip but I got another choice here. That's a good tip. Yeah it happens because you know like you said you know I got the order but she is a bad order. You know I'm not gonna take it. What's a bad order? It depends you know like what like $4 just say for like two or 3 miles. You know that pretty bad. So higher tips people usually will pick up your order quicker, wondering what happened to kelly's order. I'm already what Embarrassingly four slices in. I think kelly's outside still waiting for her food. Her pizza showed up more than 20 minutes later for Kelly paste. The tip pal. This is a win win situation. You get your food faster and you're helping a gig worker make money that they really need as the gas prices remain high. By the way, I want to point this out, kelly made me say it. She did adjust her tip after talking to the driver. She made things right, good job kelly back to you.
