Fahrwerk was founded in 2009 by Berlin-based bicycle couriers to create better working conditions for themselves. Fahrwerk is the oldest courier service in Berlin owned by the collective members themselves. We combine the advantages of fast, flexible bicycle couriers with those of a self-organized collective. With us, your delivery reaches its destination quickly and without the use of a combustion-powered vehicle!
Bike couriers are the fastest way for your deliveries to get around the city. They can take shorter routes, avoid traffic jams and always find a place to park.
For deliveries to the area surrounding Berlin, couriers combine cycling with public transportation, so your package reaches its destination faster—even over long distances.
With our overnight service, we also offer national and international express delivery. Within Germany, your shipments will always reach their destination by the next business day!
We actively avoid car traffic: Our couriers almost always deliver packages by bike. Cycling improves everyone’s quality of life and our fuel is pasta, rice, and chocolate. For larger and heavier items our couriers use cargo bikes, which are moved by muscle power and navigate Berlin’s busy traffic with ease. Only when your package doesn’t fit on a cargo bike do we use our Vito-sized electric cars.
Fahrwerk is a self-organized collective. We make important decisions by consensus—together and without hierarchy—at our plenary meetings. This helps us create a pleasant work environment that has a positive impact on the service we provide.
We're not looking for new people at the moment
If you are super keen to work with us, please send us a brief introduction about yourself (without CV) via email to jobs@fahrwerk-berlin.de.

An exception applies in cases where obtaining prior consent is not possible for practical reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law (creation of log files when using the website).
2. Legal Basis for the Processing of Personal Data Personal data is not collected without the users’ express consent. To the extent that processing takes place, Article 6(1)(a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis.
3. Data Deletion and Retention Period The data subject’s personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for which it was stored no longer applies. Data may also be stored if this is provided for by European or national legislation in EU regulations, laws, or other provisions to which the data controllers are subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted when a retention period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless further storage of the data is necessary for the performance of a contract.

With regard to the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the controllers shall take appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests, including, at a minimum, the right to request human intervention by the controller, to state your point of view, and to contest the decision.
