In 2020, across the United Kingdom, UberEats played a critical role.
Delivering food and other essentials to those shielding from COVID-19, a large number of people volunteered to become delivery workers throughout the year.
As well as playing their part in the fight against the pandemic, employees were able to earn more money and work flexible shifts. This increase in money and navigation of COVID requirements was accelerated and improved by the use of e-bikes.
In this article, we’re going to explore how UberEats delivery by bicycle can boost efficiency, save time and more. We'll also show you how you can get started with cycling for UberEats.
Even throughout 2020, an estimated 69 hours were lost to traffic jams in London1 . This is due to the huge amount of congestion from cars.
E-bikes are able to dodge traffic jams and take alternate routes through parks and narrow alleyways. Uber bikes in London or other cities can save a lot of valuable delivery time.
Being an UberEats bike rider means jumping on your bike, easily parking and dropping goods off with fast last-mile delivery times. UberEats cyclists can also find shortcuts through sidewalks, parking lots, alleyways, trails and more.
Efficiency of e-bikes in urban areas
Because UberEats deliveries are so much more efficient via e-bike, whether navigating busy roads or inclines, e-bike cyclists can make more money. Research shows that the average monthly pay for an UberEats cyclist is £1,6252. This is typically 30% extra than UberEats car drivers earn.
Part of this money efficiency comes from how cheap e-bikes are to run.
