Real Twin Cities Driver Experiences
Eric, Eden Prairie Driver
"Winter is when the real money is made in Minneapolis. During a good snowstorm, I've made $40/hour with surge pricing. AWD is a must - it's an investment that pays for itself."
Kim, Woodbury Driver
"The east metro suburbs are great for logistics blocks. Less traffic than the west side, and the routes are very efficient. I make about $650/week working part-time."
