Courier job in Elk — deliveries by Lake Ełk in Masuria

Glovo and Uber Eats operate in Ełk (as of October 2026). Since 28 September 2026 Glovo here has worked without slots, so you do not book hours — you log in whenever you like. With one settlement partner you can ride for both apps at once. Rejecting too many orders in Glovo can still cost you access to your account.

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. In season, when tourists come to Lake Ełk, it pays to stay near the promenade and Brama Mazur, where pick-ups are closest. See what you would keep in the earnings calculator.

In the centre and on the paths along Lake Ełk a regular bike is enough. The Ełk Lakeland is all hills and moraine valleys, though, so an e-bike saves your legs on the climbs, while for longer runs between the ends of the city and in winter a scooter or car is more comfortable.

Ełk is a rail junction, so some runs cross the tracks — keep a detour in mind. Since August 2023, through traffic has used the S61, which skirts the city to the south, but by car the old bypass on national roads 16 and 65 is still handy. In winter take care on the climbs away from the lake.

Usually lunchtime and the evening, plus weekends and days with bad weather. In summer tourists come to Ełk, and in the evenings city life centres on the promenade by Lake Ełk — it pays to stay close to it then.

An ID card or passport, a PESEL number and a Polish bank account are enough. Non-EU citizens also need a residence card, a visa that allows them to work, or UKR status; for a car or scooter you need a driving licence and the vehicle papers. Everything is uploaded online to the settlement partner. Once activated in Ełk you can combine Glovo without slots and Uber Eats straight away.
