Industrial city
city type
Lubin is a smaller industrial city of around 75,000 people, shaped by KGHM and its mining workforce. Wages in the region are higher than the national average, which means people order food regularly — especially during weekday lunches when factory and office workers want something quick. Weekend evenings also bring solid demand from families and groups ordering dinner.
Glovo and Uber Eats both work in Lubin. Glovo requires booking shifts in advance and pays cash for cash orders straight away. Uber Eats lets you go online whenever you want, which is useful when you are testing the waters. You can run both apps at the same time — turn them on, accept the best order, pause the others until you finish.

Frequently asked questions
How much can you earn as a food delivery courier?
Average rate is 30–50 zł per hour depending on city, time and weather. The best weekend evenings can pay 60–80 zł/h. Earnings depend on order volume, distances and active bonuses on the platform. Working 6–8 hours per day during peak windows produces a solid monthly income.
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 fleet partner.
How does registration work and how long does it take?
You register online with a fleet partner — fill in a form, upload documents, sign the contract. The partner activates your account on the chosen platforms. The whole process takes 2–7 working days. Bolt Food and Uber Eats are fastest; Wolt and Glovo sometimes take longer due to verification. Once active, you can ride the same day.
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.
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 much does a thermal bag cost and where to buy one?
A standard thermal bag costs 80–200 zł depending on size. Glovo and Wolt often hand out branded bags after your first deliveries or for a small deposit. Generic ones are available on Allegro, OLX or directly from the fleet partner. A 9+ kg model is useful for large grocery orders.
Which days of the week are most profitable?
Friday, Saturday and Sunday usually deliver 2–3× more orders than Tuesday or Wednesday. Evenings between 18 and 22 are strongest, lunch 12–14 is the second peak. The end of the month is slower because people watch their spending. Paydays, match weekends and holidays are good times for longer shifts.
