[QUOTE="Tiny Panda, post: 515982, member: 20486"] Tell me something Those of you who do 150+ per day, how do you do it?? Here in the UK the average is 70-80dels as a maximum with the city centre routes maybe doing 100-120 when real busy. I know for starters we arent allowed to leave anything without a sig unless authorised so with residentials you have to try neighbours etc so one stop can take up to 5 mins. Even on my route which is split roughly 30% Town, 30% industry and 40% residentials i struggle with anything more than 85 dels and 50 dels by lunch is doing good. Do you literally do one business after another or dozens of shops next to each other? I can go on to one industrial estate and do maybe 10 of the 30 companies there or 6-7 of the 50 shops on the main shopping street on my route. I know we are starting to take a lot more of the home delivery volume now from other companies as i can now do 3 or 4 resi's on the same street whereas 4 or 5 years ago it would only be one air package I'm guessing with it only really being UPS & Fed-Ex over there its easier, here we have close to 15 domestic carriers who do the majority of the UK-UK volume [/QUOTE]
