Sending a package is as easy as placing any other Glovo order:

Support

What should the sender and receiver do?

  • Sender: Have the package ready when the courier arrives.
  • Receiver: Be available to accept the delivery at the drop-off location.

Who creates the order: the sender or the receiver?

Either the sender or the receiver can create the order. Just make sure the pick-up and drop-off details are correct. Only the person who creates the order will be able to contact the courier via chat or phone, as well as reach out to Glovo’s support.

Can I cancel my order?

You can cancel your order via the Help Center in the app. A partial fee may apply if the courier is already en route. If the courier has already picked up the package, you can still cancel through the Help Center, and the courier will return the package to the sender at the pick-up point. A partial fee will be charged for the courier’s time.

What happens if the receiver isn't available?

If the receiver isn't available, the courier will return the package to the sender. Please note that no refunds will be issued for failed deliveries.

How can I contact the courier during delivery?

You can contact the courier using the in-app chat or call feature. This option is available only to the order creator.

What should I do if I'm having trouble with the delivery?

  • If your package has been picked up, contact the courier using the chat or phone option in the app.
  • If the receiver is unavailable, the courier will return the package to the pick-up location.

Can I get an invoice for the service?

You will receive an invoice via email after the order is delivered. In some cases, due to legal requirements, the invoice may be split into two parts: one will be sent immediately after delivery, and the second will be sent as a reconciliation of values at the end of the fiscal month.
