If you do both Uber Driver and Uber Delivery trips, Uber gives you the option to turn on and off each type of trip type at your leisure. Turning one off may provide you with less opportunity for earning, but if you need to do it, it's easy to turn it back on anytime.

2Open the Trip Planner from the map. Tap the list button with tiny checkmarks in the bottom right corner of the screen.Advertisement -
3Tap the "Driving Preferences" icon from the Trip planner. This button will look like two slider buttons in the bottom right corner of the menu. -
4Become familiar with the trip options available to you. Uber Driver Partners and Uber Delivery Partners alike have two types of trips (Deliveries and UberX) that may be available to you. If they're both available to you, you can tell Uber which kinds of trips you want to accept.- You'll need to keep at least one trip type on. The options available to you may differ depending on your car, Uber City (for UberPOOL) and your different trip options.
- Look through the list. If you have only one type of ride you can fulfill, it'll generally be listed as on and will be the only one available. For those with more ride types available, they will be listed on the page. Your options may include UberX, UberXL, UberSUV, UberLUX, UberBLACK, UberPOOL, and Deliveries.
-
5Tap on whatever services you don't want to accept, to disable them. If you only have one type of trip you drive for on Uber, this is not possible, as one service must be turned on at all times.- If you inadvertently turned off too many request types, you'll see a "Reset" button in the top right corner that you can tap to start over.
-
6Save your settings by tapping "Save" near the bottom right corner of the screen.- Before you save your work, you can press the "Reset" button in the bottom left to re-enable all trip types.

QuestionWhen only Uber X trips are listed and Uber Delivery is turned off, does this affect the amount of trips received?Top AnswererYes. Turning off delivery when leaving Uber X turned on will greatly affect the amount of trip requests received. Make sure to keep both running when you are handling requests. You will get them both inside the same queue in the same app.
