[QUOTE="Rack em, post: 4658211, member: 60861"] I used to cover a country route a couple years ago and I was chastised for NOT bringing stuff into farmers garages lol. Customers weren't mad or anything, but the regular driver told me to either deliver everything to rear doors or garages because no one in the country uses their front door. Now I have my own country route and he was right. At first I delivered stuff to rear doors or where ever looked like they entered their house. Then when getting to know customers I ask where they prefer their deliveries and 95% said in the garage and that the previous driver left them there. I chose to wait until the customers gave me permission, but I don't have one customer that would have minded me just putting their stuff in the garage without asking them. Of course it's always good to use your judgement, but if you know your customers you shouldn't have to worry about simply entering their garage. A lot of country routes have good people on them that over the years have learned to trust their Ups drivers. Although I wouldn't blame a driver for not wanting to go into a garage at all. Absolutely do what makes you the most comfortable! [/QUOTE]
