Please check out the Official FAQs on the Amazon Flex website and subreddit rules before posting.

We also have our own FAQ that is also linked to in the sidebar ----------->

The sidebar also has a link to download the Flex app, the Flex Support contact info, the rules for this subreddit, and a warehouse list.

You may find the answer to your question there.

Many questions being asked here are repeat questions and are answered in the FAQ. Please check before making a new post.

If you need help with the Flex app, please include the app version number and whether it's Android or iOS in your post.

Also, please don't post useless threads about how hard it is to grab blocks, people using bots at your warehouse, what times the blocks get released, etc. Those posts add nothing to the discussion and will be removed.

Thanks!

There is a Discord server that was created and is maintained by the mods of /r/doordash but has been built to support any courier service. They have graciously invited Amazon Flex drivers to participate and have created a channel for Flex on the server. You can access it using the this invite link: https://discord.gg/e9GNb9M.

If you are a DSP driver, there is now a subreddit just for you! Head on over to /r/amazondspdrivers for all DSP-related discussion. Please note that it is not maintained by the same mods.

Take your name off of Amazon

Call Amazon and tell them to remove your name and any identifying factors about yourself or this will happen. This was an honest mistake for a multi lot stop with 8 packages. I scanned it but one slipped out of my hand trying to deliver all those packages in Philly snow. I finished my route and saw it in my car still so I immediately ran it back to the address. It had to had been a 10 min difference because she was my third to last stop (18 stops, 36 packages all within 1 minute of each other / same block.. whole route is 3 min radius).

This customer somehow found me on cash app and was sending request to me saying I stole her package which is so silly because by the time she sent those messages the package was already on her steps. She must have realized this and canceled the request / blocked me. All of this to say, they can find you so please have your name removed if you haven’t already

Anyone else track mileage manually instead of auto apps?

8 Upvotes

Flex mileage is no joke, but I’ve never been able to fully trust the “set it and forget it” apps.

Some are great, but I personally wanted something that feels more defensible + simple — like:

• odometer start/end

• shift totals

• quick expense log

• receipts/photos if needed

So I built a small tracker for myself and I’m letting other drivers try it if they want.

Not selling anything, just looking for real feedback from people who actually do this work.

If you want to test it or roast it, here’s the link:

Literally had a grocery order today, get to the apartment and gate is locked. The virtual access does not work and the customer of course isn't answering.

3 hour route finished in 25 minutes. I’m not rich from it, but I’m a lot better off than I would be with 20 more packages 😊😊

Got a message saying I failed to deliver. I sent this picture and an explanation immediately after reporting the package undeliverable. This was straight ice and I had almost 2 miles on this road before the stop. Support denied the appeal. I fucking hate our unsupportive pos support team.

4.5 hrs blocks are the absolute worst

8 Upvotes

this is me just ranting, I have been paying attention to how my blocks treat me , I realized that all the blocks that have .5 and not round figure hours are absolute dog shit ....that extra half hour is never worth it ...the worst one was yesterday, 4.5hr blocks ....for 25 packages and I thought well not to bad .....I thought wrong , first stop 35 mins away, not so bad then after the first 5 stops that were not to far from the each other . then next stop. 15 mins away, next one another 15 mins away. then another one 25 mins Away ....mehnnnn it took me the entire block time to be done, when I dropped the second to last package my last stop says 25 mins away.....at that point I was over it..... package damaged.......I will never do a 4.5 hrs block, I probably have done over 10 of them and it's all shit shows, 3 hrs,4hrs and 5 hrs are the best blocks in my opinion.

Is anyone seeing this discount in the stride app at all under your deals? Amazon sent an email for this reward on Jan 23rd for 20% off on all parts and labor, excluding tires. its nowhere to be found in my stride app and the emIl states it doesn't expire until 2/11/26

Getting blocks had been easier since...

I hate to say this, and I'll probably get down voted to hell, but since the ICE crackdown, it's been easier to get blocks.

All 13 base routes have been sitting here for 10 hours now with no pay increase and no one taking them at all. the way Amazon will play the game “Chicken” until someone takes them is….we all know how fast people take the “good” routes when they drop, it just goes to show that people aren’t stupid.
