Ruda Slaska for couriers: districts and roads

Glovo with no slots since 5 October

Ruda Śląska has 127,601 residents (as of 31.12.2025). Since 5 October 2026 Glovo here has worked without booking slots, and Wolt, Uber Eats and Pyszne couriers deliver too.

The A4, DTŚ and ul. 1 Maja

The A4 motorway runs through the southern districts, and the DTŚ links the city with Katowice, Zabrze and Gliwice. The main street is 1 Maja, part of the Bytom–Rybnik road — by car these are the fastest routes between districts.

Eleven former towns

Ruda Śląska was created in 1959 by merging Ruda and Nowy Bytom and has 11 districts: from Ruda, Godula and Orzegów to Halemba, Kochłowice and Bielszowice. Instead of one centre you get several — trips between districts can be long.

Ruda Śląska Plaza

The shopping centre at ul. 1 Maja 310 has about 20,000 m², with tenants including Carrefour and Cinema City. It is one of the key pick-up points in the city.

Building the N-S Route

The first northern section of the N-S Route opened in March 2025, and the DTŚ–A4 link is due by the end of 2028. Until then, expect disruption around the building sites.

Questions about courier work in Ruda Slaska

Does Glovo in Ruda Slaska work without slots?
Yes, since 5 October 2026. You switch the app on when you have time and take orders. Wolt, Uber Eats and Pyszne operate here too — one partner lets you use several at once.
How much will I really earn as a courier in Ruda Slaska?
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. With long trips between districts a fast vehicle matters — on a scooter you fit in more runs than on a regular bike. Check the exact amount in the earnings calculator.
Can you get around Ruda Slaska by bike?
Within one district, yes — but Orzegów to Halemba or Kochłowice is several kilometres. For those runs a scooter, e-bike or car is better, especially via the A4 and DTŚ.
Where can I expect disruption in Ruda Slaska?
Around the works on the N-S Route, which should link the DTŚ with the A4 by the end of 2028. Plan detours and check the map before each run.
When do orders peak in Ruda Slaska?
Usually at lunchtime and in the evening, at weekends and in bad weather. The city has several centres, so it often pays to stick to your own and neighbouring districts.
How do I start delivering food in Ruda Slaska?
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. You can begin in the district where you live and widen your area over time.
