Burro
Transportation Opportunity Review
Burro pays truck drivers money to haul large items. They also pay pickup truck owners that are considered driver helpers. Drivers must be at least 21 years old, able to lift 100 lbs, and pass a DMV and criminal background check. Burro drivers are notified via an alert on the Burro app when a customer sends a request. If a driver is able to fill the request, he or she simply selects “YES.” Then the customer will give more details about the item(s) to be hauled. If the driver decides he or she cannot take the request, they simply decline the job and one of the other drivers will get the request. You'll need a clean full-size truck (1500+) with a bed that must be at least 9 feet long with the tailgate down, 48 inches wide between the wheel wells, and accommodate items 7 feet tall so no bed covers. If you drive a Tacoma, Colorado or car you can be a driver helper.
