• Relocating: If you’re moving to an area that Postmates doesn’t service, you’ll most likely want to delete your account.
• Personal Data Concerns: Another common reason for deleting a Postmates account is personal data concerns. While Postmates does have a privacy policy in place, some users may still feel uneasy about the company having access to their personal information.
• No Longer Driving for Postmates: You’ll probably want to delete your account if you’re no longer driving for Postmates.

After that, you can delete your account from any device, including a smartphone, laptop, or desktop computer.
