Ostróda for couriers: lakes, the railway, the S7

Glovo and Uber Eats in Masuria

Ostróda had 30,755 residents (as of 31.12.2025). You take orders from Glovo and Uber Eats; Glovo has run without slots since 28 September 2026. One settlement partner handles your accounts in both apps.

Five lakes and the Drwęca

Five lakes lie within the town limits: Drwęckie, Smordy, Puzy, Sajmino and Perskie, and the Drwęca flows through Ostróda. You can get anywhere by bike or e-bike.

The railway, an overpass and the S7

The railway line splits the town into a northern and a southern part. An overpass was built over the tracks at ul. Drwęcka, and the street itself is the main approach to the S7. The expressway has the Ostróda Północ and Ostróda Południe interchanges, and the DK15 leads towards Toruń.

A town on the water

Ostróda covers about 14 km², and the lakes lie within its limits, so routes between estates often follow a shore or circle the water.

BIG Ostróda and Galeria Mazurska

By the S7 stands the BIG Ostróda retail park (since 2024) with Castorama, Biedronka and McDonald's, and in the centre there is Galeria Mazurska with a Carrefour.

Reggae and the Elbląg Canal

Ostróda Reggae Festival takes place every July, and in summer ships leave Ostróda along the Elbląg Canal, with its 19th-century inclined planes.

Questions about courier work in Ostróda

Which platforms deliver orders in Ostróda?
Glovo and Uber Eats (as of October 2026). With Glovo you have not needed to book slots since 28 September 2026. One settlement partner is enough for both accounts.
What decides a courier's earnings in Ostróda?
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 Ostróda the lakes and the railway matter: a run between the northern and southern parts of town goes over the overpass or a level crossing, and some routes circle the water. Work out your own figure in the earnings calculator.
What should you ride around Ostróda?
A bike or an e-bike — the town is small. A car or scooter helps in winter and on longer runs to BIG Ostróda by the S7.
What makes getting around harder in Ostróda?
The railway line that splits the town — you cross to the other side by the overpass on ul. Drwęcka, among other routes. In summer there is more traffic by the lakes and during the festival.
Are there more orders in Ostróda in summer?
In summer tourists arrive and Ostróda Reggae Festival is held, so the busy period lasts longer. Outside the season most orders come at lunch and in the evening.
What do I do to start with Glovo and Uber Eats in Ostróda?
You sign up online with a settlement partner: fill in a form, upload your documents and sign an umowa zlecenie (civil contract). The partner then activates you in the apps you choose — Uber Eats usually within 24–72 hours. In Ostróda, select Glovo and Uber Eats.
