Skarzysko-Kamienna grew up around the railway and industry, and still runs that way today. With about 48,000 residents, a major rail junction, and factories on shift patterns, the working day stretches out: some order at the classic lunch hour, others only after their shift ends. The city also sits on the route between Kielce and Radom, so there's steady through-traffic too. In practice, it pays to work hours that would be dead elsewhere.

Food outlets stick to the centre and station area, with extra pickup points at supermarkets on the main roads. You'll deliver to estates on both sides of the tracks β€” and it's the tracks, not the kilometres, that determine travel time, since crossing points are limited. The rest come from single-family housing and outskirts addresses. Grocery orders can get heavy, so set your own carrying limit.

Frequently asked questions

How much can you earn as a food delivery courier?
You typically take home 25–55 zΕ‚ an hour depending on the city, time and weather β€” that is after deductions, not gross. On Uber Eats in heavy rain or snow it can reach 60–80 zΕ‚/h: fewer couriers are out and the orders pile up. Your result depends on how many orders you accept, the distances and the bonuses running in that app. You see the rate for every job in the app before you accept it.
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 settlement partner.
How does registration work and how long does it take?
You sign up online with a settlement partner β€” fill in the form, upload your documents, sign the contract. The partner then activates your account in the apps you chose. Bolt Food usually the same day or the next one, Uber Eats within 24–72 hours. With Wolt and Glovo the timing depends on whether your city is currently recruiting couriers β€” if it is, that's a couple of days. Your advisor checks this before you gather any paperwork.
How much does a thermal bag cost and where do you get one?
The settlement partner gives you a thermal bag for free β€” you don't need to buy one. The platforms themselves neither hand out nor sell equipment. If you already have your own bag from another app, you can ride with it: all that matters is that it holds temperature, branded logos aren't required.
How does the Glovo bonus system work?
Glovo adds bonuses for working peak hours, bad weather and completing a target number of deliveries in a given period. Bonus amounts vary by city and week. Active promotions show up in the earnings tab β€” check before you book a shift.
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.
Is it safe to work in the evening?
Evenings are the most profitable part of the day and most couriers ride shift after shift without a single incident. Phone numbers are hidden on both sides and all contact goes through the app, so the customer never sees your number. Cash is the real risk: hand your takings in during the shift instead of carrying them around until the end of the day. Settlement-partner support runs 7 days a week in Polish, English, Ukrainian, Russian and Turkish.
