Bytom for couriers: hills, trams, mining damage

Four apps, Glovo without slots

Bytom has 144,598 residents (GUS, 31.12.2025). Since 28 September 2026 Glovo here has worked without booking slots, and Wolt, Uber Eats and Pyszne couriers deliver too.

Higher and hillier

Bytom sits on the Miechowice Upland at 249–330 m above sea level — higher and hillier than neighbouring Gliwice. Metrorower GZM has 66 stations here (October 2025), but for daily runs your own e-bike or scooter works better.

Trams from pl. Sikorskiego and a paid zone in the centre

Tram lines meet at pl. Sikorskiego and fan out in six directions — mind the rails on a bike in the centre. The centre has a paid parking zone, extended in 2020–2021 to streets such as Batorego, Kolejowa and Matejki.

Miechowice, Stroszek, Szombierki

Bytom formally has no districts, but addresses are described by traditional names: Śródmieście, Rozbark, Miechowice, Stroszek, Szombierki, Łagiewniki, Karb, Sucha Góra or Stolarzowice. Knowing them helps you judge a trip at a glance.

Agora by the Rynek

Galeria Agora, opened in 2010 about 60 m from the Rynek, has some 120 shops and units. The city also has the Plejada and M1 centres — the main retail spots you will pick up from.

Mining damage

Decades of mining have lowered the ground in Bytom by about 5.5 m on average, and by up to 7 m in places on the Miechowice–Karb border between 2011 and 2021. Uneven surfaces and patched roads are normal here — ride carefully on a bike or scooter.

Questions about courier work in Bytom

Which delivery apps work in Bytom?
Glovo, Wolt, Uber Eats and Pyszne (as of October 2026). Since 28 September 2026 Glovo in Bytom has worked without slots — no need to book hours, just switch the app on. One settlement partner lets you run several apps at once.
What do food couriers earn in Bytom?
You typically take home 25–55 zł an hour — that is after deductions, not gross. With Uber Eats in heavy rain or snow it can reach 60–80 zł/h. On hilly routes an e-bike helps you keep your pace through the whole shift. Work out your own figure in the earnings calculator.
What should I ride in Bytom?
A regular bike is fine for short runs in Śródmieście, but routes over the Miechowice Upland are easier on an e-bike or scooter. A car is more comfortable in winter and for longer trips, e.g. to Stolarzowice.
What should I watch out for on Bytom’s roads?
Uneven surfaces from mining damage — especially around Karb and Miechowice — and the tram rails in the centre, e.g. at pl. Sikorskiego.
Is it worth riding in the evening in Bytom?
Yes — along with lunchtime, evenings, weekends and bad-weather days are usually when most orders come in. Close to the Rynek you have Galeria Agora and plenty of places in Śródmieście.
Where do I begin as a courier in Bytom?
You sign up online with a settlement partner: fill in a form, upload your documents and sign an umowa zlecenie (civil contract). The partner then activates you in the apps you choose — Uber Eats usually within 24–72 hours. You upload documents from your phone — no need to go anywhere.
