Kobylka is a classic bedroom town of the Warsaw agglomeration: most residents leave for the capital in the morning and come back after 5pm. For you, that means the day really only starts in the late afternoon, once the trains bring home people who don't feel like cooking. Its 23,000 residents live mostly in single-family houses.
Pickup points are few and cluster along the main streets and near the station. You'll deliver mostly to houses spread across the whole municipality, where addresses can stretch out and numbering isn't always obvious. Being next to Wolomin and Marki means some runs cross the city line. It's worth confirming with the customer whether the gate is open - fences can cost you a minute at every address.

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.
What to do if the customer doesn't answer the door?
Try calling through the app first — 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 — 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.
Can you choose orders or are they assigned randomly?
Each platform works differently. Wolt and Bolt Food show the order before you accept — you can decline if it is too far or pays too low. Glovo auto-assigns within your booked slot, but you can decline without big consequences if your rating is solid.
Can you work for several apps at the same time?
Wolt, Uber Eats and Bolt Food combine easily — you accept the best order and pause the others while delivering. Glovo always runs separately because it requires shift booking and penalises missed slots. Multi-apping is the standard courier strategy — it eliminates idle time between jobs.
Is it worth using your own car, and who pays for fuel?
Fuel, servicing and parking are on you — since July 2026 Glovo no longer accepts expense invoices for fuel, parts or gear. A car earns its keep on the outskirts, on large grocery orders and in winter, while a bike usually wins in a tight city centre. Valid motor third-party cover (OC) is mandatory and platform insurance doesn't replace it. The settlement partner also offers its own insurance packages (OC, AC, NNW, assistance) for people driving for apps.
