Chrzanow sits exactly between Krakow and Katowice, and that location shapes its whole day. Forty thousand residents, an industrial tradition going back to a locomotive factory, and plenty of people commuting for work in both directions. For a courier, the effect is simple: the town is empty in the morning and gets busy from five in the afternoon. Weekends work out best, especially Friday and Saturday evenings.

Restaurants cluster around the market square and downtown, with a few along the through road. Runs end at housing estates, homes on the outskirts, and shops and supermarkets along the main road. The area is compact, so two or three orders in a row often land in a similar spot. Plenty of deliveries go to local plants and offices during the workday.

Frequently asked questions

How much can you earn as a food delivery courier?
You typically take home 25–55 zΕ‚ an hour depending on the city, time and weather β€” that is after deductions, not gross. On Uber Eats in heavy rain or snow it can reach 60–80 zΕ‚/h: fewer couriers are out and the orders pile up. Your result depends on how many orders you accept, the distances and the bonuses running in that app. You see the rate for every job in the app before you accept it.
What documents do you need to work as a courier?
Basics: a valid ID or passport, PESEL number, and a Polish bank account for payouts. Non-EU foreigners also need a residence card, work-permit visa or UKR status (for Ukrainians). Cars and scooters require a driver's licence and vehicle papers. The whole verification runs online, usually through a settlement partner.
How does registration work and how long does it take?
You sign up online with a settlement partner β€” fill in the form, upload your documents, sign the contract. The partner then activates your account in the apps you chose. Bolt Food usually the same day or the next one, Uber Eats within 24–72 hours. With Wolt and Glovo the timing depends on whether your city is currently recruiting couriers β€” if it is, that's a couple of days. Your advisor checks this before you gather any paperwork.
How does the courier rating system work?
Every platform scores your work: acceptance rate, delivery time, customer feedback. A higher rating gives priority when booking slots (especially on Glovo) and unlocks bonuses. Be polite at the door, deliver on time and avoid cancelling accepted orders β€” your rating will take care of itself.
How quickly can you start earning after registering?
Bolt Food usually activates the account the same day or the next one, Uber Eats within 24–72 hours. With Wolt and Glovo it all depends on whether the city is recruiting right now. Once you have access to the app you can take your first order the same day. The faster you gather the documents, the sooner you start.
What to do if the restaurant order is wrong?
Always check the order number on the receipt before leaving β€” staff mistakes happen regularly. If something is missing or wrong, ask the staff to fix it on the spot. If you only notice later, report it through the app chat β€” your rating won't suffer if you react quickly.
What to do if the customer doesn't answer the door?
Try calling through the app first β€” the customer's number is hidden, but the call goes through. At Bolt Food the rule is three contact attempts and ten minutes of waiting; at Uber Eats the app counts down seven minutes. The exact sequence is always shown in the app itself. Then report it to support β€” once they confirm, you either leave the order at the door or take it back to the restaurant. How that trip is paid is decided by the app's own support.
