Decline Out-of-the-Way DoorDash Orders
If you do this, you'll end up wasting valuable time on orders that don't pay very well. Instead, you should assess the value of the order (in dollars) against the distance you have you drive, and the time it's going to take you to complete the order."DoorDash terminates contractors without notice and will not tell you why they removed your access." I was terminated but by email as opposed to them calling, with absolutely no explanation given.

Dashers that are consistently late, deliver orders with missing items, or behave unprofessionally, typically receive lower ratings.

Starting in December, workers must maintain a 70% “acceptance rate” — the percent of job offers they choose to deliver — in order to get “Top Dasher” status. That means accepting deliveries that pay as low as $2. “Top Dasher” status gets you the ability to “Dash anytime” and get more job offers.
Please remove all of your scheduled shifts and then contact DoorDash Support to process your account deactivation. Be sure to include the email address or phone number associated with your Dasher account. DoorDash will remove your personal information based upon state employment law requirements.
a judge deemed that since Dashers were independent contractors, you cannot be deactivated because of a low acceptance rate. That's not true either. *DoorDash removed the acceptance threshold. They also removed anything else that would give the appearance that they are an employer.
ACCEPTANCE RATE
This rating has no affect on any aspect of being a dasher. My acceptance rate is 30% and I get a lot of orders. You are in no way penalized for having a low acceptance rating. With that said, you need to maintain a rating of 80% or higher in order to qualify for Drive orders.On the website, DoorDash advertises that you will earn between $15-$25 an hour. Most drivers who post videos to YouTube claim that they earn between $7-$10 per delivery, and they average 2-3 deliveries per hour.
If you're going to tip your DoorDash driver, it is recommended that you follow general service-industry tipping guidelines. In other words, think about tipping the same amount you would tip your server at a restaurant or your pizza delivery driver. In most areas, this equates about 15%-20% of your total bill.
“Doordash technically doesn't 'steal' your tip, they give it to you,” wrote one Doordash driver on Reddit earlier this month. “But they use it to subsidize what they pay out of pocket which is basically the same thing at the end of the day.”
Obviously, the more you work, the more you can make. I'd say $15 to $25 an hour is reasonable to expect.” When we reached out to DoorDash, they confirmed that $15 to $25 per hour rate. There are also other incentives to make more money, like making 30 deliveries in 30 days or getting a new Dasher to sign up.
There is no requirement that drivers receive tips directly through the DoorDash app, and a cash tip can actually work out in the Dasher's favor by increasing the total amount they make off your delivery. When you tip your Dasher in cash, DoorDash has no record of it.
Base pay from DoorDash to Dashers ranges from $2-$10+ per delivery depending on the estimated duration, distance, and desirability of the order. Deliveries that are expected to take more time, that require Dashers to travel a longer distance, and that are less popular with Dashers have higher base pay.

By placing them together, drivers get to make a clear choice about whether or not to take the delivery, based on the entire amount that they will make. Secondly, this allows for DoorDash to avoid showing the exact amount that they pay workers. If you tip graciously, DoorDash will lower the amount that they pay.
How Much to Tip Pizza And Other Food Delivery Drivers. For delivery orders of $20 or less, it is customary to offer a minimum tip of $3. For any amount over $20, tip 10 to 15% but never less than $5.
You can rate your dasher and overall delivery experience by navigating to your DoorDash Merchant Portal and selecting "Deliveries". Here, you can find the delivery you wish to provide feedback for and select "Rate" next to the dasher's name.
Restaurants can also rate you but its separate. It wont count towards your driver rating but it may affect your ability to get orders from that restaurant.
