The Courier App isn’t a typical gig platform. We’re a courier service provider working directly with clients to deliver structured, reliable delivery jobs to our verified drivers.

We assign jobs in advance with clear expectations, fixed rates, and full support, so you can focus on driving, not admin.

As a verified delivery partner, you’ll join a trusted network across the North East, backed by a team of former couriers who understand the job inside and out. We offer the flexibility of self-employment, with the structure and reliability of a team that’s got your back.
