We have received feedback from many Dashers that it has become increasingly difficult to schedule a Dash on the DoorDash platform. We understand this is a frustrating experience. We have listened to you and have resolved to make the following changes to improve the Dashing experience.

We are running consumer promotions in your market to create more deliveries. These are allowing the release of more slots on the Dasher schedule.

We have launched a temporary Early Access Scheduling Program as DoorDash works to drive more deliveries to your market.

Early Access

What is Early Access?

Early Access Scheduling is a program that allows qualified Dashers to access the Dasher schedule 6 days in advance beginning at 3 pm each day.

For Example: If you qualified for Early Access, on Fridays at 3 pm you would be able to see the next Thursday’s Dasher schedule.

How do I qualify?

To qualify for Early Access you must complete at least one of the below:

You qualify if you have accepted and completed at least 20 deliveries on the DoorDash platform between 12 am the previous Friday and 11:59 pm the previous Thursday*

You qualify if you have completed at least 250 lifetime deliveries on the DoorDash platform

When will this program start?

The program is now active across the US and Canada

Early Access qualifying Dashers will be refreshed every Friday and qualification will last through the following Thursday

Will the qualification standards change?

The above qualification standards are subject to change. If they change, Dashers will receive an email and the Early Access Communities Page will be updated

What happens if I don’t qualify?

If you have not qualified for Early Access, the following week you will be able to access the Dasher schedule 5 days in advance beginning at 12 am every day.

For Example: If you did not qualify for Early Access, on Saturday at 12 am you would be able to see next Thursday’s Dasher schedule.

* Qualification based on completed deliveries accepted between 12 am Friday and 11:59 pm Thursday

Happy Dashing,
