1 RENT OUT YOUR CARAVAN If your RV, caravan or motorhome is sitting idle or costing you fees in storage, you can make some extra cash by renting it out via Camplify to trusted borrowers from interstate or around your area. The average person using this platform will earn from $280–$2100 a week. Borrowers save, as it’s more affordable than traditiona­l companies, so everyone’s a winner. camplify.com.au

2 BECOME A PET SITTER Love all creatures great and small? Then sign up for Mad Paws, an online platform which connects pet owners with caring pet sitters to mind their dog or cat while away. With many people heading off travelling, they are searching for people to look after their adorable pets. Sitters can make about $220 a week, depending on how many animals they look after. madpaws.com.au

3 USE YOUR CAR TO DELIVER Deliver parcels to homes around your area by signing up as a courier with Zoom2u. Zoom2u acts a lot like Uber, but you’re transporti­ng parcels instead of people. You have complete flexibilit­y on when you work – it’s just a matter of accepting the workload that is right for you. You can make between $400 to $2000 a week! zoom2u.com.au

4 RENT OUT YOUR SPACE Got some extra room for storage? Whether it’s a spare room, empty garage or bare driveway, space is currently in high demand. Online marketplac­e Spacer connects Hosts (people with space) to Renters (people who need space) in their area. You can expect to make between $350–$500 a month. spacer.com.au

5 COOK FOR LOCALS Know your way around a kitchen? You can become a cook for locals with Foodbyus, which allows talented home chefs to sell food to their neighbours.
