Sat,
At 6pm you pre-sheet you remaining stops. I assume the DIAD goes back with the driver pulling the TP60 back to the main center. My question is, what do you do about signature required packages that you pre-sheeted but don't have the DIAD for the customer to sign? Are these stops done on paper?
Thanks in advance, as I know you have answered about 20 questions so far regarding remote routes.

Yep, the Diad goes back.
99% of the time I only have DR's left.
The remaining 1% of sig req pkg's I NI1 (prerecorded) and get a SDN when I deliver.
Same goes for COD's.
The stops show as delivered the next day, as a duplicate stop.
That covers me from charges of running up the stop count of the next day.
You have to remember, I have lived in this rural county for 30yrs. Everyone knew me before I worked at UPS. So that gives me some leeway on sig req pkg's not showing up on the records till the next day.
People call me at home or come by all the time to tell me a package is coming and that they will be out of town when it comes. If it is medicine that needs to be kept cool, I stick it in my fridge, till they get back. Good thing I've got a large 6ft deep freezer. I've stored so many turkeys/hams/fruitcakes ect.. during the holiday season, while my customers are out of town, you would think I am running a grocery store.
I know who to trust and visa versa.
Feel free to ask questions of me.
I have learned so much on BC about the working conditions around the country for other UPSer's. I am glad to share what little info I have to offer.
