[QUOTE="BrownArmy, post: 1021712, member: 18225"] I got a Masterlock U-shaped bike lock...much harder to cut. I lock my hand-truck to a railing, next to the 20+ other locked up hand-trucks. Tell the center manager you can't leave until you have a hand-truck. When he says, "aw, come on, you're on a house-call route, you don't need one", refer to the PCM you've just recently had about the proper way to load an over-70 onto a hand-truck. Refer to the Eight keys: Get an object in your POWER-ZONE! (Hard to do with a 4'x6' 120lb PBTeen bed getup)... Use existing equipment...(hard to do if you don't have said equipment), etc. Refer to the 5 keys to avoiding slips and falls...kind of hard to scan your walk area when you're carrying a stack of amazon/zappos packages up the rich ladies' awesome curving stone staircase... If you want to '[U]take it to the streets'[/U], message the center (every time) that you need help with an over-70 and the consignee isn't home...someone's going to have to break off and help you...rinse, repeat. Bring it all back to [B][I]safety[/I][/B], and throw in some [B][I]efficiency[/I][/B] arguments if you want to get fancy, but your center manager needs to get you a hand-truck. (and when you get one, lock it up with a good lock...) [/QUOTE]
