Vehicle Requirements
-
Any Working Vehicle Qualifies: Most areas do not have restrictions on vehicle models or year. As long as your vehicle runs, it’s likely good to go for deliveries.
-
No Vehicle Inspections: There’s no formal vehicle inspection required by DoorDash, easing concerns for prospective drivers.
-
Valid Driver’s License and Insurance: You need a valid driver’s license and appropriate insurance to be eligible to drive for DoorDash.
- Age Requirement: You must be at least 18 years old to apply.
Background Checks
During the application process, DoorDash conducts a background check. While they do assess your history, they are more lenient regarding the age and mileage of your vehicle. An older car with high mileage can still meet their requirements.
Alternatives to Cars
