Piekary Slaskie is a mining town and a Silesian pilgrimage centre with around 58,000 residents. Two platforms operate here: Glovo and Uber Eats. As an industrial city, weekday lunches from 12 to 14 bring solid orders from factory and office workers, and weekend evenings stay busy too.

Glovo pays cash on the spot but requires shift booking and has penalties for missed shifts. Uber Eats has a steadier flow without the booking pressure. You can run both at the same time, accept the better order, and pause the other until you finish.

Frequently asked questions

How much can you earn as a food delivery courier?
Average rate is 30–50 zΕ‚ per hour depending on city, time and weather. The best weekend evenings can pay 60–80 zΕ‚/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 β€” 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 β€” 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 β€” 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.
Do you need experience to become a courier?
No experience required. You need a phone, a means of transport, a thermal bag and a basic feel for the city β€” the app teaches you the rest. The first 1–2 days can feel chaotic (no-lift buildings, confusing addresses), but after a week the routine clicks. Everyone started from zero.
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 zΕ‚ per year and don't pay ZUS on civil contracts β€” almost everything you earn stays in your pocket.
