Nowy Sacz for couriers: the Dunajec, bridges, Trzy Korony

Glovo and Uber Eats where two rivers meet

In the middle of the Sącz Basin (Kotlina Sądecka), where the Kamienica joins the Dunajec, live 79,416 people (as of 31.12.2025). Glovo and Uber Eats couriers deliver food here; since 28 September 2026 Glovo has not required slot booking. One settlement partner gives you both apps at once.

Flat terraces, hills at the edges

Around 63% of the city sits on river terraces of the Dunajec, Poprad, Kamienica and Łubinka — from about 272 m above sea level in Wielopole to about 475 m on Majdan hill. The centre is flat, but the surrounding foothills are cut by valleys, so an e-bike or scooter helps on the climbs.

Two Dunajec bridges and the DK75

Most Heleński has linked the Dunajec banks in the centre since May 2019, and the northern bypass (over 2 km) with a second bridge opened in August 2015. For Krynica-Zdrój you take the DK75 up the Kamienica valley. Central parking is paid; in 2022 the city ordered 45 meters that take cards and apps.

25 estates across 57.6 km²

Nowy Sacz covers about 57.6 km² and is split into 25 estates (osiedla). Besides Stare Miasto and Centrum, you deliver to Zabełcze by Góra Zabełecka (north), Falkowa (east), and Poręba Mała, Gorzków and Biegonice (south) — in the last two, homes sit beside factories, warehouses and big stores.

Trzy Korony, Sandecja and the Rynek

The Trzy Korony mall, at ul. Lwowska and ul. Krańcowa, opened in October 2013: about 35,000 m², 120+ shops, a cinema and parking for 800 cars. The smaller Sandecja has 75 units. In the centre, venues cluster around the Rynek (160 × 120 m), Małopolska's largest square after Kraków's.

Open-air museum, Galician Town and the Beskids

Sądecki Park Etnograficzny (ul. Wieniawy-Długoszowskiego 83b) covers about 20 ha and has been open since 1975; in summer it hosts folklore events. Miasteczko Galicyjskie is a group of 20 buildings recreated in 2005–2010. The city is ringed by the Beskid Sądecki, Wyspowy and Niski ranges.

Questions about delivery work in Nowy Sacz

Can you ride for several apps at once in Nowy Sacz?
Yes. Glovo and Uber Eats operate in Nowy Sacz (as of October 2026), and one settlement partner lets you keep active accounts in both. Since 28 September 2026 Glovo has worked here without slots, so it is easy to switch it on when Uber Eats goes quiet. Rejecting too many Glovo orders can still cost you access to the account.
How much will you really earn as a courier in Nowy Sacz?
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. Runs around the Rynek are short, while trips to the southern estates such as Biegonice or Gorzków, or across the Dunajec, take longer — factor that in before you accept an order. Check the exact amount in the earnings calculator.
Bike or scooter for the terraces and hills of Nowy Sacz?
A regular bike handles the centre and the flat terraces along the Dunajec and Kamienica. When an order takes you up to the hills on the outskirts — Majdan rises to about 475 m — an e-bike saves your legs. A scooter or car pays off in winter and on longer runs across the bridge to the other bank of the Dunajec.
Where can a route in Nowy Sacz catch you out?
At the Dunajec crossings: Most Heleński in the centre and the bridge on the northern bypass, so learn both. After heavy rain the Kamienica Nawojowska can rise suddenly, and on the steep foothill slopes you need to slow down in winter. The longest runs go to Zabełcze in the north and Poręba Mała in the south.
When is it worth switching the app on in Nowy Sacz?
Orders usually pick up around lunch and in the evening, at weekends, and on days with pouring rain or frost. In summer the city has more visitors — the open-air museum runs folklore events then — so on warm evenings it pays to stay close to the Rynek and the Old Town.
What documents do you need to work as a courier in Nowy Sacz?
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. You upload the set once, and in Nowy Sacz you can then activate both Glovo and Uber Eats.
