Choose Your Transport

Cargo-Bike
Make more deliveries as a cargo-bike Courier. Get out on the urban road, and deliver a large quantity of parcels over a couple of hours. That means more deliveries completed per hour, more revenue and more guaranteed time opportunities.

On Foot & Public Transportation
You know every metro line and station, and weaving through London’s streets sounds like your ideal day at work. Cover ground on foot or by public transport, and take pride in delivering premium goods.
Why We Love Being Couriers
I joined the Urb-it Community and became a Courier because I loved the idea of discovering new places around London, meeting new people, and building relationships with local businesses. The ability to choose my own hours has really given me a sense of freedom at work.
