What is DoorDash?

DoorDash is the most popular food delivery app in the United States. If you live in or near a city of any size, it will probably operate in your backyard. Maybe you’ve even used DoorDash to order from your favorite restaurant.

If you are familiar with DoorDash, you know it is not a one-way street. Without thousands-strong crew of hard-hustling delivery folks called Dashers, the app wouldn’t work, and the world would be a little hungrier for it.

DoorDash is a real-time logistics company where people can order the best food in town. Once a customer orders something on the app, the restaurant prepares the food, and the “Dasher” picks it up and delivers it to the customer. Dashers can also increase the quality of their customer service by voluntarily unpacking the order for the recipient. DoorDash is available in cities in the United States and Canada.
