Delivery jobs that pay the bills

It’s a tough world out there for people trying to make a buck or two. Whether you’re waiting to enter university, a fresh graduate looking to stall reality a little longer, or someone in between jobs, there’s no need to slog it out in a part-time job with inflexible working hours and a measly $6/hr pay. That’s hardly enough to cover your yong tau foo + drink at the food court.

But all hope’s not yet lost. If you’ve got a driving license sitting in your wallet, here are 7 surprising delivery jobs that pay as much as $30/hr to save the day:

1. Deliveroo

More than just a job, the folks at Deliveroo care about their drivers. From covering all your delivery expenses from ERP charges to parking and petrol, you can expect to make up to $30/hr with incentives as a Roo-man without having to worry about a commission deduction or your personal welfare.
