Ostroleka is an industrial city on the Narew of about 53,000, with a power plant and factories that give a steady flow of weekday orders. Weekend evenings lift the number of requests, especially in the centre.
Glovo and Uber Eats both operate here. Glovo pays cash immediately and runs on slots, so you handle it separately. Uber Eats you switch on flexibly whenever you want. With both apps you rarely sit without an order.

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.
What to do if the customer does not answer the door?
Try calling through the app — the number is hidden but the call works. If they don't pick up for 5–8 minutes, send a message and contact support. After confirmation you can leave the order at the door or return it to the restaurant. You will be paid the full delivery fee.
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.
Can students work as couriers?
Yes, courier work is one of the best part-time jobs for students. You choose when you work, so it fits around your timetable. People under 26 are exempt from income tax up to 85 528 zł per year and don't pay ZUS on civil contracts — almost everything you earn stays in your pocket.
How quickly can you start earning after registering?
Bolt Food and Uber Eats activate accounts the fastest — often within 1–2 days. Wolt and Glovo take a bit longer because of verification. Once you have access to the app, you can take your first order the same day. The faster you complete your documents, the sooner you start.
