Review:
Like Roadie, what HitchIt has going for it is the assumption that you’re already on the road and headed in a particular direction. If so, why not see if there’s something you can pick up on the way to defray your cost of gas?
If that’s how you use this app, it could be great. But there’s not enough money involved in picking things up when the gig isn’t actually on your way or extremely close to where you wish to go.
Other options: For those with a truck, consider GoShare or Truxx; if you have a car or van, Amazon Flex. If you don’t mind driving kids around (and can pass a thorough background check) consider Ride Zum. Also consider CitizenShipper, which arranges on-the-way deliveries for everything from pets to furniture and appears to pay more.
