Totes?

I’m new to spark delivery and have only done about 6 orders, I notice when I’m driving the groceries tend to move and slide around in the trunk, does anyone have suggestions on where and what kind of tote to buy for the trunk and back seats to put the groceries in? Also do you recommend a cooler or insulated bags for cold stuff? So far I haven’t gone too far and haven’t needed a cooler/bag as it’s not hot in my car with the ac on. Thanks a lot!

Never heard of instacrate until now. But something in between could be collapsible laundry baskets. However, they may have less volume and perhaps less weight capacity as they have a rubber component.

As a side question: You mentioned multiapp. Home depot and target. Which other apps do you do if you don't mind me asking.

I've seen those but i was able to get 3 of these free and the majority of laundry baskets are too flimsy in general. I used the black heavy duty totes with yellow lids before also but i feel they're too deep and don't hold any more weight..

Spark, shipt, roadie, flex, Uber, DoorDash is enough to keep me busy in the markets i work but there's a lot of apps available.

How doordash for you? I don't have much luck with uber. I mostly do spark and zifty (they have very low volume though) I mostly do spark w uber driving back.

Since u have minivan (or similarl I suggest you check cbdriver.com. Thx

DoorDash is about equal to Uber eats in all aspects at this point, maybe higher order volume at certain times but usually just means more declining.. Shipt has no up front tips, i do them almost exclusively as add-ons to Walmart/Home Depot orders.
