How much do Uber Eats drivers make in Texas?
I’ve spent a lot of time working in the service industry and customer service—even during the pandemic. I’m feeling really burnt out, and I want to change jobs to something a little less draining, but I don’t know if I can afford it. What do Uber Eats drivers in Texas get paid?

Sorry to hear you’ve been dealing with burnout at work. Driving for Uber Eats or a similar courier position will allow you to distance yourself from as much customer interaction, and it may be able to sustain you with minimum wage plus tips in
Texas
.Uber Eats drivers in Texas typically make about $15 per hour at the base. Once you factor in tips, however, that wage comes out to an average of $28 per hour. Just keep in mind that you won’t actually get a base hourly wage—rather you’ll get a flat rate plus tips for each delivery you make. It’s up to you to take on deliveries to make sure you’re keeping up with these averages.
While you’re budgeting for your potential income as an Uber Eats driver in Texas, don’t forget to take
rideshare driver insurance
into account. Uber offers an extra level of coverage to its drivers while on the job, but it may be worth revisiting your own car insurance
policy to make sure you have the best coverage possible!View full answer
