You can now send packages up to 80kg with Uber — how much it costs

Uber has launched a new on-demand delivery service called Uber Connect Car, allowing users to send packages weighing up to 80kg over short distances.

The e-hailing company previously rolled out Uber Connect Moto in South Africa in 2020, providing a similar delivery service via motorbike for parcels weighing up to 15kg.

I wonder if they would take a delivery cross province. Would be interesting to see.

Edit: Nope. Just checked and it didn't give me a price so I'm assuming that's a no.

At least it doesn't weigh under 1kg.

I think this could be really useful.

Perfect solution to move my powder...

I used it the other day after forgetting something at work. It Works well. While it would have been a bit cheaper to go get the item myself, but if you're busy like I was at the time, It's worth the little extra for the convenience.

Nice cheap alternative for women or smaller guy to travel, if they are willing to travel in a box?

I was just thinking, I weigh less than 80kg and these rates are cheaper than being a passenger.

A bit cheaper? Seems to me like it would be a lot cheaper to do it yourself.
