city type
Ciechanow acts as the capital of northern Mazovia: forty-five thousand residents, food processing plants, public offices, and a decent rail connection to Warsaw. Some residents commute to the capital, so evening trains arriving back are a real signal for couriers — the best part of the shift kicks off right after them. Weekends follow the classic pattern, with Friday and Saturday leading.
You'll find pickup points downtown, around the market square and near the castle of the Mazovian dukes. Customers are mostly people in apartment blocks on both sides of the Lydynia river, plus single-family homes on the outskirts and supermarkets near the roads out of town. The scale is small enough that after a week you know the street layout by heart.

Frequently asked questions
How much can you earn as a food delivery courier?
You typically take home 25–55 zł an hour depending on the city, time and weather — that is after deductions, not gross. On Uber Eats in heavy rain or snow it can reach 60–80 zł/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 — 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 — if it is, that's a couple of days. Your advisor checks this before you gather any paperwork.
Can you work without speaking Polish?
Yes — most apps support English, Russian and Ukrainian. Contact with restaurants is usually limited to showing the order number, and customers only see the delivery address. A few simple Polish phrases help at pickup but are not required. Fleet-partner support also operates in Russian and Ukrainian.
Do you need a powerbank while working?
A powerbank is essential — apps with GPS drain your phone in 3–4 hours. Without a working phone you cannot accept orders or reach addresses. Pick a model with at least 10 000 mAh and fast charging. Keep a spare cable in your bag.
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 — 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 — your rating won't suffer if you react quickly.
