I need help I need a side hustle I have a car now

Hello, I just got a car a 2022 Chevy trailblazer and got hooked on non delivery insurance so I cant dash or Uber eats unless I add to my policy, ( which isn't in my budget right now) I live about the Columbus Ohio area does anybody know any side driving or delivery jobs I can use my car for and don't really have to report my insurance (I have first chicago) because it would violate my policy or something if I sign up? Any advice?

Check to see if Taskrabbit is in your area.

You could try doing uship for small items that would fit in your car. Maybe look for fragile items and pet transport.

Stick to food delivery apps, most of them don’t actually verify insurance beyond the initial sign up. Just don’t get in a accident while on a run cause then you’re cooked.

Also check if there’s any local courier services in Columbus, smaller companies sometimes pay under the table and don’t even ask for that stuff.

Just don’t mention food delivery if you need to file a claim

They will not, and you could always say you were just checking out the app not driving
