id hope thats just a worn out cable, and not your plug. i just got my first iphone in december but it snaps in pretty tight and doesnt come out. i bought a 3-pack of extra charging cables and i bought some short cables for attaching to my portable pack. you dont need the expensive oem cables as replacements but you wanna make sure you're getting a trusted brand because some of them dont work right, the super cheap ones basically. i can only vouch for those 2 that i bought, but all of the amazonbasics stuff should work well if you need to get a replacement cable. it shouldnt be wobbling around in your port

I'm on a Scooter and the two things I can't work without are my AO Soft Cooler and a TOWEL!!!

AO Soft Cooler

It's a little pricey but I got mine because it fits perfectly in a rectangular milkcrate that I got legit from Farm Plast. And I also use it for personal groceries and stuff and it's seriously the best cooler I've ever owned.

And a towel (or blanket) is the secret to making sure that drinks never ever ever spill. I wrap up fountain drinks like they are little babies and set the package into my soft cooler. Or I set the drink inside and fill the space with the towel. Drinks, soups, smoothies, and other liquid nightmare foods will stay put and not leak as long as they are surrounded by some sort of cushy mass. I used to reject anything with liquid but now I can cart two bowls of ramen 20 miles with 0 spillage.

Also a 12 V phone charger that will draw enough amperage to charge your phone is critical. Not sure which one I use but it charges my phone in like 10 minutes so I am always at 100%. If anyone's on a scooter or motorcycle hopefully you have a 12 V port if not you can always install one to make life easier.

3 days for my $85 hot/cold backpack to pay for itself.

PK-76F: Doubledeck Insulated Pizza/Food Delivery Backpack Bag, 16"x 15"x 18", With a Cup Holder. A Waterproof, Collapsible Food Take-Out Box For Catering, Restaurant, Delivery Drivers, 76Liters(Green) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01NAGT78G/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_5v0vDbG3ES0SX

Got it to start doing motorcycle deliveries on PM. It also came with an insulated 4 cup drink holder. Leave it in the back seat, keep your regular hot/cold bags in it and still keep the food in them. It will keep the food from warming the drinks. When you have someone nice enough to be waiting outside to meet you and they just expect you to hand them something from the front passenger seat, they will tip the shit out of you when you get out, open up the backseat, unzip your insulated box, take the food out of the insulated bag, so on, and so on. It’s a backpack so it’s easier to carry on apt/hotel trips. It still makes the same impression. CAREFUL ABOUT STUFF SLOSHING AROUND WHEN YOU PUT IT ON YOUR BACK. It didn’t take long to get the hang of it. Some people snicker, most respect the hustle.

YMMV: In Denver

Ps: If your killing it, try to pay it forward and tip out the people making it possible. It’s more work for them and they really aren’t getting a slice. Obvious I mean chains, mom & pop’s love it.

Almost 3 weeks now. It‘a great. Had the original switch before. Both are nice but I’m enjoying the enhanced portability of this. I recommend investing in an SD card and downloading the games. That way you don’t have to carry any cartridges. And this case: https://www.amazon.co.jp/任天堂-Nintendo-Switch-Liteフリップカバー(画面保護シート付き)/dp/B07X5L6GSW/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?_encoding=UTF8&imageClass=hi-res&keywords=switch+lite+case&phoneCarrier=wifi&phoneType=iPhone&qid=1574878784&rd=1&sr=8-3&view=Touch9

Definitely consider a Moto g7 power. Unlocked for use on any carrier going for $179 right now on Amazon.

Huge 5000mah battery. Charge overnight, use it all day doing gigs, and maybe use 50%.

Ample performance, big screen, camera works fine for what you want.

I got this drink holder on amazon for $10. My car only has 2 cup holders and one of them usually has my drink in it, so I keep this one on the passengers seat for when I have multiple orders with drinks. The free drink holder that restaurants will give you (when they haven’t already run out) doesn’t support drinks well and they’ll tip over if I make a tight turn or hit potholes/speed bumps.

You'll want a better bike lock — cable locks are notoriously easy to cut through and won't protect your bike. I'd invest in a high quality Kryptonite or Abus U-lock if possible.

I also like using a thermal backpack to carry orders. Something like this (coupled with a foam insert that acts as a drink holder):

And +1 on the extra phone battery.

I use the bevbag and it works pretty well. I also got the drink holder insert for it. If anything does spill it’s easy to rinse or wipe off.

It was on the floor and still tipped over, 1 small drink 1 medium and one XL the weight of the XL tipped the others over when I made a turn, not even that hard of a turn.

I have been looking on Amazon and these 2 look the most promising one is 2x the cost of the other but the other seems better quality.

Not sure which if either I should go for.

Check the merchandise at thrift shop (goodwill) and scan their barcodes to see if I can sell on eBay or Amazon for a profit.. hopefully find stuff like this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1570901309/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1500427991&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=squire+parsons+book. There is money in Rare DVDs and books if you know what to look for. Just sold a $40 softball bat that I picked up for 3 also. I make an additional 600 or so profit from hanging out at about 4 goodwills around restaurants.

An imgur link will suffice. As for the backpack they currently offer here in NYC, i've seen Postmates couriers with something in the fashion of this except the ones exclusively for postmates have a design on it and are probably built better, at least they seem like they are from observation. The Caviar backpack is a bit bigger at L:20 1/2 W:15 H:18 roughly.

I have two of these. I know it's more money spent but boy am I glad I do

I bought mine well before Postmates added the item to their store.

edit

I have one of these with some strip insulation on it to hold the drinks in better since this is actually fitted cleaner bottles.

Most of the food businesses do not care if you have an insulated bag or not, but if you do need one that's cheap I recommend this one. Insulated Tote Bag
