Do I need 3 separate Sched C for Uber, DoorDash, Postmates, and Amazon Flex?

I have income from Uber, DoorDash, Postmates, and Amazon Flex. From what I can determine Uber uses the rideshare business code of 485300. The other three seem to be covered by 492000 - Couriers and Messengers. I know Uber will not issue 1099-k as I am under $20,000. I don't know about the other three. Would I do 2 schedule Cs, one for Uber, one for the other three since they all have delivery in common? If so do I divide common deductions up into percentages based on share of income, like cell phone expenses I use for all of them?

 In this case, I would say that it is largely up to you. The job codes don’t have a legal effect, they are for statistical purposes.  Since all four jobs are basically similar in that you use your personal vehicle to deliver people, food, or packages, I don’t think there would be a problem in combining them on one schedule C,  particularly as that may make it easier to report your mileage when you perform several different jobs on the same day.   If you wanted to keep them separate, you certainly could.
