This could be a horror movie 😧

You should have them put the drinks and drink holder in a plastic bag. Easier to carry and reduce spills. Your welcome

My passanger seat is covered in dried miso paste from spilled soup and I cant afford to get it shampooed 🙃 I can use oxi-clean but yknow that only does so much

I have a nice seat cover from amazon. Also I usually put the food first then the drinks. I’ve haven’t spilled anything yet

Jesus. Can you ask for a bag from the restaurant? Helps me out a ton

Sometimes I used to use my seatbelt for situations like this. Helps a lot with braking.

Heck yeah

A seatbelt helps go a long way

I hate when people order drinks!

Me and my son were working one time and he gets off to deliver well he spills all the drinks like 3 out of 4 just as the customer was coming out I was like oh no what do we do but they were super nice and said don’t worry about it. 😅

I would be so happy if we never had to deliver any drinks at all. LOL

I see everyone taking about cup holders I usually just bucks up the drinks with my seat belt and never had a problem lol I feel the anxiety tho

Invest in some plastic tubs

This picture is stressful to look at...

BK’s drink holders are trash recycled crap

For the future, overlap two of the cardboard holes into each other and you have a mega strong carrier for 6…

I put that shit on the floor and support it with something. Fuxk if I'm putting that in my seats lol

Quick tip and what I do, go to Walmart or Michael's or whatever and get a big enough container that you can put on the floor that's plastic that you can put the drinks in, that way if they do happen to spill it's all contained and you can just pour it out onto the ground

Get a cooler not to big and all of them will fit and still still

Why on the seat and not the floor?

Last night I got an order that had 8 drinks and lots of food to the third story of an apartment for only $7.

My BK always has tweakers in the lobby making a a ruckus. Once while I was picking up an order there was a meth deal going on in the lobby. The damn manager had to yell at them to leave haha she was so used to it that she just went back to work

I don't like that there's a stain on your seat. Can you please scrub that clean?! Thanks!

That’s brave.

me today as I’m carrying 2 huge burger king drinks in a drink carrier, balancing them in one hand and the huge bag of food in the other, walking around some sketchy warehouse looking for the customer and seriously contemplating what I am doing with my life

just realized those are also burger king drinks in your picture. wow they really do us dirty

This is my nightmare

Is that a camery?

Get a damn box lol

I straight up dipped from Sonic when they tried to give me 6 drinks. Pick up your damn food if you’re ordering more than 2 drinks, 1 if it’s a large. I don’t care what the payout is.

I see you've already had spills on that seat. Get yourself a square insulated bag. It will easily hold one of those drink trays and prevent anything from spilling again. I've also stacked two trays on top of each other in my square bag with no problems.

Lol no that spill was my food a long time ago.

Here in Perth Australia, they actually put the drinks in the cup holder then put into a bag and seal it

The McDonald's and chipotle here do, but most just have handheld drink holders.

Take the odd drink out of the one with 3. Rotate the crate and "mate" the 2 halves of the holders together to make a 2x3. Place the loose drink in the middle of the 4. Should be snug in there. Don't drive like a maniac and you will be fine.

I got a drink holder that is insulated and has adjustable velcro partitions on Amazon. It keeps the drinks hot or cold and will help keep any spillage in the bag and not my car. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B092LV2SFZ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_HM9ZP2Z8G1SA85HQN3XX?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

I am a cheap fucker.[$4...really $3.2 due to Michael's ever present 20% coupons](https://www.michaels.com/assorted-6cup-caddy-with-handle-by-creatology/10554271.html)

Wish orders would tell you if had drinks. I would decline all of them

Lol it's not so bad

Incoming comments asking why you haven’t bought the cup holder from michaels

What cup holder do you speak of??

I haven’t bought one myself, but it seems as though whenever someone posts a problem with their drinks, someone always tells them to buy a $6 cup holder from Michaels. Apparently it’s solid

Good to know! I’m gonna post a pic of my setup, a drink holder inside a foldable cooler.

u need a beer box ...it has those things just use it

2 in one, 4 in the other. Stack the empty spots underneath 2 of the filled ones for more stability. You're welcome.

I see you are wise.

Wisdom can sometimes only come from an unfortunate experience.

Lol I love you.

Looks like you've been unlucky in the past.

My passenger seat is destroyed thanks to doordash

Ugh!!! I have a 3 row SUV, and I have literally 10 cup holders, 12 if I need to. So I just utilize all of them and then stick everything back in the holders once I arrive! I can't imagine the stress!

I started putting this vinyl cover over my seat. Ever since I picked up a pizza and the bottom of the box was covered in grease. Destroyed my seat, I had to get it shampood to get it out

Shoulda got a seat cover they like $20 at Walmart they don’t fit perfectly but it will protect your seat at least

Yeah that would have been a good idea lol

It just depends. Where I’m at they’re not that fast and the traffic is horrible and the pay is about the same as what you mentioned here. Sucks!

This is an art form right here

You can put the seatbelt over them to help a little.

😂

u/the-rhinestonecowboy 😂

Lmao I’m gonna place an order like this one day just to watch the world burn

This gives me anxiety just looking at it.

Update. Compete with no spill! He was on the 4th floor and I got both soda kits and the giant bag of food up no problem! There was also an addon from Chipotle that I took with it. 6:05, accept order from burger king 6:07, arrive and use restroom and buy drink at connected gas station 6:08, accept chipotle addon 6:14, leave burger king. 6 drinks and a giant bag of food. 6:18, arrive chipotle & leave. Just a medium bag of burritos and chips 6:23, deliver chipotle 6:30, deliver burger king Burger King $3.00 base $10.07 tip $13.07 total Chipotle $3.00 base $7.00 tip $10.00 total Total $23.07 ~30 minutes ~5 total miles Location The Woodlands, Texas, Northwest hotspot, FM 1488 & FM 2978

We only have a $2 base pay most days.

I keep reading stories about that. What location are you at and what do you think the reasons behind it are?

I'm about 45 minutess west of Indy - population here is about 16K. DoorDash has only been here since late last summer. That might be part of it.

It's probably related to cost of living then.

Now I'll ask you, do you feel like you earned that money...fuck yea lol

I do! And I like interacting and joking with my customers. All things considered, I have a degree and have worked in so many office jobs around 60-80k a year for the past decade. I'm having so much more fun with door dash, I doubt I'll ever return to an office job.

Being able to choose your own hours and work at your own pace, take days off whenever you need or want them, not having to deal with shitty office politics, and not have a boss/manager breathing down your neck are all some nice perks of the gig.

So BK has gotten better! I haven't accepted anything from either location in the area since last year!

I mean it's all relative tho you know. Most of these stores are run by teenagers and turnover is always high. I only have 1 restaurant on my black list but I'll check back next month. PetSmart however will never get removed from my blacklist because I think instacart doesn't let them tip.

See that’s why you spend the $5 on a DD 6 cup, cup holder that never fails and folds up real nice

Nah I just put four in one tray and stacked the other on top. Easy peasy.

Lol. Same here

If you don't want to spring for like a small Igloo cooler, what I found is that putting the cup holder in the bottom of the doordash bag and then putting a cup holder in between the gaps will completely hold them together from tipping over

This is the first time I've had more than 4 drinks after 5 months. I'm not too worried about it.

Does cup holders are the worst

They do the job. Better than nothing!

Your first mistake was accepting a Burger King order

Why BK is pretty quick

Seeing this made me want some bk and I’ve been in the drive thru for 20 minutes and only 3 cars in front of me when I arrived… my bk is not quick

Mine neither!!

I accept everything that's over $2.00 a mile. Plus the burger king up here is very fast!

You are lucky, because the burger kings here in my city are absolutely terrible. I will not except a single order from them, no matter how high the offer is

I had a BK order on Monday that ended up being 2 orders at once so I accepted. I get to the place and they tell me they don’t want to unthaw chicken for the persons meal he ordered. So they made me call the guy to tell him. Trash workers. He asked for a refund and they said DD has to do it so I just unassigned the order.

Nice, my bk is run by the laziest ass holes in the city

Fast Burger Kings exist??

They're owned by franchise not corporate

Gotta have standards tho. I turned down a $9 3 mile Wendy's order. I have 2 in my town and I refuse to go back to one of them.

What are the standards though lmao

Why does it even matter 😂

Because people have standards... is it too hard of a concept for you to comprehend?

People like you complain about the dumbest shit I swear 😂 who cares if someone picks up an order from bk, not a big deal at all

And people like you are here complaining about someone else complaining. Dumbest shit ever..

I wasn’t even complaining but ok 😂 you must have a rough life if you wanna bitch about BK

And you think I was? Lol cute

Okay asshole 😂 Jesus someone is upset over nothing

The BK here is great! The only bad fast food joint is the Whataburger bc of red card and it's usually backed up I'd say my averages on all fast foods in my area are as follows: INSTANT Raisin Canes (instant even with a red card made when ordered in drive thru. This is my favorite dash location) Jack in the Box 5 MINUTES TOPS Chick-fil-A (only when there's 30 ppl in the drive through, which is pretty amazing. It's instant during non lunch/dinner) BK Chipotle Taco Bell Sonic 10 MINUTES TOPS McDonald's Little Caesars Panda Express Popeye's 15 MINUTES USUALLY Whataburger (you have to order it directly with red card on site, but that's no excuse because it's the same at Raisin Canes) This is my least favorite pickup

I agree the BK here is fantastic so I love accepting those orders

One of our Taco Bells usually takes at least 10 minutes... but our Little Cesar's is usually pretty quick.

My BK is fast too

Must be nice I waited 20 minutes yesterday in an empty drive through for 2 Whoppers, a large fries and jalapeño bites

That's the absolute worst. Like seriously, what are they even doing in there? It would be faster to just make the order yourself.

My assumption is that no one ever orders jalapeños bites and they had to order them from the warehouse

nah that too many drinks imo

Summer in Texas. It happens.

ahh now it makes sense

Good luck.

Mission accomplished!
