Your house is probably your most expensive asset – and if you’re like most people, you probably have a lot of extra space sitting unused. If you have a spare room or you travel regularly, consider taking advantage of your extra space and put it up on Airbnb.
Create your own dog sitting business with Rover. I’ve been dog sitting using Rover for several years now, and it’s been a great and fun source of extra income. It’s even better if you already have a dog, since taking care of a second dog really isn’t that much more work.
Turo is a platform that allows users to list cars for people to rent (think of it as an Airbnb for car rentals). Like other platform apps, you create your profile, set your price for your car, and wait for people to book it.
Getaround is another car-sharing platform that allows car owners to rent out their cars to people. The key differentiator with Getaround is that it acts more like an on-demand car-sharing app, allowing you to rent your car out on-demand for shorter periods (in contrast, Turo acts more like a traditional car rental service).
HyreCar is a car-sharing platform that works a little differently when compared to Turo and Getaround. Instead of renting to the general public, HyreCar rentals are car rentals for rideshare drivers and food delivery couriers.
Uber Eats is another food delivery app that lets me do deliveries on my bike. The main downside with Uber Eats is that it doesn’t tell you where your delivery is going in advance.
Delivery app that shows you where you will pickup and drop off food, and how much you will make ahead of time. It’s a solid app, but the only problem is they don’t seem to allow delivery by bike right now.
Amazon Flex has shifts where you deliver packages using your car. They also have on-demand food delivery, but you have to use a car when doing deliveries.
I signed up for Shipt, but haven’t completed the process yet. I’ll update this once I know more about how it works. Basically, you deliver groceries to people.
Merchandiser has a mix of easy picture taking gigs, and then some gigs that require you to work with the store manager. I usually only do the ones where I take pictures of stuff.
Google Opinion Rewards is a survey app from Google. You get sent short, 10-second surveys and get paid a small amount for each survey. It takes so little time to do the survey, so it’s worth having this app on your phone.
1Q sends you 1 question surveys every once in a while. You earn 25 cents for each survey. I don’t get surveys very often, but it’s still worth having on your phone.
Get paid to do random tasks for people – usually helping people move, putting together furniture, or yard work. I don’t do too many Task Rabbit gigs, but it’s worth signing up to see if it’s worth it to you.
Neighbor is a platform that allows you to list extra storage space in your house for people to rent. If you have a basement, attic, or spare closet, you could monetize that extra space by finding listing it up on Neighbor for people to rent. You could also list your garage for people to store their cars in.
Draiver is an app where you get paid to move rental trucks from one location to another. Can be fun if you like driving – and its nice because you’re not driving your own car.
