Doordashing in a Town with 24/7 PEAK PAY…Was It Worth It?

  • Doordash in a town with $3 Peak Pay 34/7, but was it actually worth it as a doordash driver ? In this doordash challenge, I’m heading to a town called Newport, Pennsylvania to see if this daily peak pay actually is beneficial for my doordash income.
    Welcome to day 2 of doordashing 10 zones in 10 days where I’ll be doing doordash delivery in 10 different towns across Pennsylvania and doing different Doordash challenges and doordash ride along type content. I hope you all have enjoyed so far…

    The reason it has peak pay so much is because it’s so small that it has no dashers so when there is a a few orders the app thinks it’s “busy” because they’re just sitting there stacking up

    • @traveljb

    Yeah I definitely think that 24/7 $3 Peak Pay for the Newport zone is because there’s literally no orders in that area all the time lol. I have similar areas like Paw Paw, WV, and Moorefield, WV that have like a few restaurants and that’s it. Paw Paw doesn’t even have name brand stores in that small ass town lol. And considering how much gas is in PA (I work in Greencastle, PA so I see the ridiculousness 5 days a week) I commend you for doing these DoorDash challenges. You should definitely try Dashing in Baltimore or downtown Philadelphia for a video since they’re not too far from you.

    • @traveljb

      @@traveljb honestly the last few months I have just been doing earn by time. Currently I am not seeing a lot of orders because my completion rate fell to 94% because my app kept glitching out where doordash would take my orders away from me after I hit accept. I got it back up to 96% then a customer canceled an order on me because they didn’t like I accepted an add on. So now it’s 95% again. But before the glitches I was still seeing orders regularly.

    There are two zones with 3.00 peak pay 24 hours a day within 45 minutes of me. One is nw the other sw. They are rarely lit up red so you can never dash now, but the schedule is always completely open so I scheduled 3 hours at the sw one one time to try it out. I got one Hungry Howie's order in that 3 hours.
