Thinking about starting DoorDash, realistic monthly earnings & hours?

Earnings

Hey everyone,

I’m a gap year college student looking into doing DoorDash to make some extra income, and I hope to get a realistic picture from people actually doing it right now.

For those doing it either part-time or full-time:

  • How many hours do you usually put in per week?
  • Roughly what are you bringing in per month?
  • Which shifts/times tend to be the most worth it in your area?

I know it varies heavily by market, but any insight or tips on what to realistically expect would be awesome. I'm in Boston. Thanksss in advance!
