Ostrow Wielkopolski for couriers: the S11, central parking, the Arena

Glovo and Uber Eats in the town of the 1918 Republic

In 1918 the short-lived Republic of Ostrow was born here; today Ostrow Wielkopolski has 68,111 residents (as of 31.12.2025). You deliver food with Glovo, which has not required slot booking since 5 October 2026, and with Uber Eats. One settlement partner covers both apps.

Gentle terrain, an ordinary bike

Elevations in town range from 123 to 175 m above sea level, so steep climbs are rare and an ordinary bike does the job. You can rent one or buy your own.

The S11 bypass and two parking zones

Since 12 July 2017 a 13.4 km S11 bypass has skirted the town to the east, with the Ostrow Wielkopolski Wschod and Poludnie junctions. In the centre you pay to park on weekdays: zone I (incl. Rynek, ul. Wolności) 10:00–18:00, zone II (incl. ul. Kościuszki) 8:00–16:00; the first hour costs 2.50 zł.

From Wenecja to Zacharzew across 41.9 km²

Ostrow covers 41.9 km². Blocks of flats sit mostly around Śródmieście, for example on the Jana Pawła II and Wschód estates, while detached houses fill Krępa, Zębców, Pruślin and Zacharzew, added to the town in 1934 and 1979. In the north, in Wenecja, lies the Piaski-Szczygliczka reservoir.

Galeria Ostrovia on ul. Kaliska and the Rynek

A key pickup point is Galeria Ostrovia at ul. Kaliska 120, which also houses a Helios cinema. In Śródmieście, use the Rynek and its town hall (Rynek 1, now a museum) as your landmark — the streets around it are in the paid parking zone, so expect to pay if you come by car on a weekday.

Basketball champions and speedway on Piłsudskiego

Stal Ostrow Wielkopolski won the Polish basketball title in 2020/21 and plays at Arena Ostrow, ul. Kowalczyka 1 (3,086 seats for games). The Municipal Stadium at ul. Piłsudskiego 64, opened in 1928, hosts the Ostrovia speedway team and holds 12,000 spectators.

Questions about courier work in Ostrow Wielkopolski

Which apps can I deliver for in Ostrow Wielkopolski?
In Ostrow Wielkopolski you can deliver with Glovo and Uber Eats (as of October 2026). Since 5 October 2026 Glovo has not required slot booking, so you log in whenever you have time, and you can keep Uber Eats running alongside it — one settlement partner handles both apps.
How much can I earn delivering in Ostrow Wielkopolski?
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. The town covers under 42 km², so trips from restaurant to customer are usually short, and central parking is only charged on weekdays. Work out your own figure in the earnings calculator.
Bike, scooter or car — what works best in Ostrow?
The terrain is gentle (123–175 m above sea level), so a bike easily covers Śródmieście and the Jana Pawła II or Wschód estates — rent one or buy it. For Pruślin, Zacharzew or Wenecja, a scooter or car gets you there faster.
Where do runs in Ostrow Wielkopolski take longer?
The DK36 towards Krotoszyn runs through town, while a ring road developed since 2010 — including upgraded ul. Wybickiego, Chłapowskiego and Sadowa — helps you skirt the centre. Trips to the outskirts, such as Pruślin, Zacharzew or the Szczygliczka area, also take longer. In winter, allow extra time on those routes.
What time of day is best for riding in Ostrow Wielkopolski?
You will pick up the most jobs around midday, again once factories and offices finish for the day, and on weekend evenings. Keep an eye on Stal basketball and Ostrovia speedway fixtures too: on match days fans head for the Arena on ul. Kowalczyka and the stadium on ul. Piłsudskiego.
How quickly can I start delivering in Ostrow Wielkopolski?
The settlement partner’s online form takes a few minutes; then you upload documents and sign an umowa zlecenie. Uber Eats usually activates you within 24–72 hours, while with Glovo and Wolt it depends on current recruitment in the city. In Ostrow you will usually get going fastest with Uber Eats, then add slot-free Glovo once that account is activated.
