Delivery guys don't like to take orders.

What kinds of orders do food delivery drivers dislike taking? Everyone’s answer to this question is a little different, but there are a few types that most delivery drivers generally agree are “landmines.” This article summarizes them to serve as a reference for new drivers.

Top 5 "Landmine" Orders According to Delivery Drivers

1. Large Orders from Beverage Shops:For example, an order of 50 cups of bubble tea. It takes a long time to prepare, is difficult to transport, and if even one cup is spilled, the cost to the entire order is significant.
2. Long-distance, low-cost:A delivery that takes 30 minutes but only pays 60 yuan isn't worth the time.
3. High Floors Without an Elevator:For orders on the fifth floor or higher without an elevator, either add a tip or skip the order.
4. Orders for non-food household goods:Such as bottled water and large quantities of toilet paper. The platform’s fee structure for these types of products is not well-developed.
5. Restaurants to Avoid During Peak Hours:Every food delivery driver has a "blacklist" in their mind, noting which restaurants often keep them waiting.

Advice for Beginners:It’s important to know which rides aren’t worth it, but don’t be too picky—the system might lower your priority for receiving ride requests as a result. Accept as many rides as you can within your comfort zone, and treat the “unprofitable” ones as a way to get familiar with the area.
