Available in over 7,000 cities in the U.S., Canada, and Australia, DoorDash is about connecting people with possibilities: bigger savings accounts, wider nets, stronger communities, and happier days.

You can make it full-time, part-time, or once in a while -- and dash practically anywhere. It's a great alternative to seasonal, temporary, and part-time work.
Do I need any experience to be a DoorDash driver?Nope! You don't need any prior work experience. But if you do have previous experience in the rideshare, food, or courier service industries, delivering with DoorDash is a great way to earn money. We welcome drivers and bikers from other gig economy or commercial services such as UberEats, Postmates, Lyft, Caviar, Eat24, Google Express, GrubHub, AmazonFresh, Instacart, Amazon, Uber, Waitr, and Bite Squad. Dashers come from all backgrounds and industries, and include catering drivers, truck drivers, and taxi drivers.
What is the difference between food delivery and rideshare?With delivery, there are two big differences: 1) You don't have passengers in your car 2) You can use any mode of transportation: your car (two doors is fine), bicycle, or motorcycle It’s also a bit more active than ridesharing, as you get in/out of your car/bike to pick up and deliver the food.
What's a delivery like?Once you receive a delivery opportunity, you'll see where it is and what you'll make, and can choose to accept or reject it. Once you accept, there are generally three steps, all of which are clearly outlined in the Driver app: 1) Drive to the restaurant 2) Pick up the food 3) Drive to the customer to drop off the food
