Local Courier & Delivery Specialist – Handle High-Value Items (1099 Contractor)
Company Intro:
Couri is redefining local transactions. We help people buy and sell items safely without ever meeting in person, handling pickup, delivery, and payment from start to finish.

What You’ll Do:
- Pick up items from sellers (homes, apartments, businesses)

- Respect for your time — structured, efficient routes
Pay & Schedule (1099 Contractor):
- Earn up to $20–$30/hour on average, depending on deliveries and tips

- Reliable 4-door vehicle (sedan or SUV)
- Active personal auto insurance covering at minimum:
