How much do Uber drivers make in Tennessee?
I live in Nashville and I’m looking to become an Uber driver. But I’m not sure how lucrative it’s actually going to be. How much do Uber drivers make in Tennessee?
Shannon Fitzgerald · Updated on

The amount you’ll make as an Uber driver in
Tennessee
depends on how much you’re driving along with several other factors like tips, surges, and your service tier. However, the average yearly salary for an Uber driver in Tennessee tends to run around $40,000. Based on estimates for drivers who work 20 to 28 hours per week and make about 60 trips, Uber drivers in
Nashville
can expect to make about $32,104 per year. Again, this number varies significantly depending on your driving practices. Since Uber is independent contract work, you have a lot of freedom in determining when and how long you work. That said, there are also work-related expenses you’ll want to stay on top of as an Uber driver. This can include gas, vehicle maintenance, and
car insurance
coverage in between rides when Uber’s insurance
offers you very limited liability protection. As an independent contractor, employee benefits like health insurance are not provided to you through Uber either. You will also need to file your income taxes independently, which can lead to added costs from self-employment taxes on top of your regular income taxes.
