Hike My Ride (Parcels) is a logistics and parcel delivery service operating across Zambia. The platform connects individuals who need to send parcels with partner drivers who are already traveling between cities, creating a flexible and cost-efficient delivery network.

Partner Drivers Program

Who can join: Individuals with reliable vehicles and a good knowledge of Zambia’s inter-city routes.

Requirements: Drivers must have a fixed place of residence, verifiable referees, and pass background checks.

Flexibility: Drivers are considered partners rather than employees, giving them control over when and where they operate.
