Finding side hustles that pay daily or the same day you complete work can be difficult but not impossible. Some side hustles that pay the same day include power-washing, local reselling and selling plasma.
All three of those side hustles can lead to same-day payouts when executed correctly.
Here’s what you need to know.
Power-washing side hustle
Power-washing has become an extremely popular side hustle in the last few years. It’s because of how quickly you can get paid with a very small learning curve.
To start your own power-washing side hustle, all you need is a power-washer and marketing for your business. You can learn how to use a power-washer for free online and once you have some requests for your work, you can get paid the same day.
The biggest challenge with a power-washing side hustle is getting the actual power-washer and then finding business. You can market your service with online ads or go door-to-door looking for new business. It’s a great way to get paid daily if you can find consistent work.
Reselling goods locally
The easiest side hustle that pays the same day is reselling goods locally. Getting physical cash in hand for items you sell directly to your customers is an easy way to get paid daily.
There are a few ways you can resell goods locally that are the most effective. These ways include: Craigslist, resell stores and having a yard sale.
Craigslist
Selling on Craigslist (or OfferUp) is one of the most popular ways to make local sales. These platforms drive high volumes of traffic and local buyers look for deals here. The best way to get paid daily from selling on Craigslist is to take pictures and list items in your home that you want to sell.
The benefit to local sales is sellers don’t have to worry about shipping their items. Also, sellers have the ability to sell bigger items like couches or lawnmowers.
Putting items for sale on Craigslist at reasonable prices can allow for same-day sales in your local area. Just make sure you’re meeting the buyer at a safe place like a police station or coffee shop.
Just make sure you report your taxes on OfferUp and Craigslist sales.
Sell to resell stores
Resell stores like Plato’s Closet, Play It Again Sports and pawn shops can be great ways to sell your items locally for cash the same day. Typically, the commission for these stores is lower than most reselling platforms like eBay, but they offer immediate payment.
Depending on what kind of items you have to sell, that will determine which resell store you can sell your goods at.
Have a yard sale
You can have your own yard sale or go to a flea market and sell your items to make money the same day. Having your own yard sale gives you more control over when the sale happens. However, going to a flea market opens you up to more potential buyers.
Yard sales are great ways to make money selling goods, but you’re going to get a lot of low offers for your goods. Buyers expect heavy discounts and deals at yard sales and will haggle to get them. If you want to make a lot of sales, be prepared to haggle and make deals at your yard sale.
Selling plasma
The last side hustle you can do to make same-day money is selling plasma. Centers that accept plasma will happily pay you cash for yours the same day you give it to them. Consider this a last-ditch effort to make money in a day.
There are rules and guidelines that come with selling your plasma. Guidelines in the U.S. state that you can only sell plasma once in a two-day period and no more than twice a week. On top of that, the center you sell your plasma to might have their own regulations as well.
Selling plasma in small moderation is safe, but you don’t want to overdo this daily side hustle.
Conclusion: Same-day pay side hustles do exist
There are side hustles out there that pay the same day work is complete, but they are hard to find and require a lot of work.
If you have more time than a day to make money, consider doing online surveys, which can send payments every 3 days.
