Top 3 Ways to Make Money with a Car During COVID-19

Are you currently unemployed? Do you want a side-hustle to help pay the bills? Do you want to save money and be in control of your transportation schedule?

There are ways to make money using your car, or save money with one of ours during the COVID-19 pandemic.

All these ideas below are only possible if your town isn’t on a full lockdown order. So please keep that in mind, because safety should always be a top priority. If you are mindful of this, there are many safe ways to make money during COVID-19 to help with expenses that have not slowed down during the pandemic. Below is the list of three ways that you can make money.

1 – Become a delivery driver for Uber EatsGrubhub, or DoorDash. With everyone being asked to stay at home, the restaurant industry’s delivery services are well underserved now. The Top 3 companies operating in this industry have announced a driver shortage across the nation. With tips averaging between 10% and 20%, and average meal order values around $50 for a family of 4, you can earn $40/hour by delivering just 4 meals.

2 – Use our car, instead of public transportation, taxis or ride hailing services. Many people across America don’t own an automobile to get to work. In many towns the public transportation system is shutdown or on a very reduced capacity. However, Essential Workers like hospital staff, restaurant workers, bank employees, public safety officers and many others are still working. Use a Fox car to get yourself to work instead. This saves you money and puts you in control of your transportation schedule and environment.

3 – Be a personal shopper for Shipt or Instacart. You know the stores in your town, and you know the products, so why not execute on this talent by providing this service to others, while earning a steady income. Experienced Shipt and Instacart drivers can make from $16-$22, plus tips. Still not sure? Well, Shipt has written a post on 10 Reasons Why People Choose to be Shipt Shoppers

What makes all these options above even better – You can use the car you already own or rent one from Fox to provide an essential service and continue to support yourself and/or your family with reliable transportation. Fox has rates starting at $20/week for use of their rental cars during this pandemic. Check out the Local Renter Special on the DEALS page. In addition, the minimum driver age is lowered to 18, and there are NO additional fees for young renters due to COVID-19 Policy Updates at Fox

Of course, all these ways to earn money are not without risk. Please take all the proper steps for keeping safe that the experts at the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) have provided when interacting with others.
