As a bicycle courier, you act as a messenger and deliver documents, packages, or other small items. In this role, you may collect information or payment from a customer, provide service and support for products, pick up small items, and use various forms of transportation to reach your destination quickly. Bicycle couriers usually focus on short-distance deliveries—sometimes within a single building—but occasionally use buses or other transportation as necessary. Bicycle couriers often handle confidential or time-sensitive packages, so the ability to adjust to the unique requirements of each delivery is essential to success in this position.
