[QUOTE="WillWorkForPAS, post: 350223"] Because stopping at a customer's location one time and delivering all their packages together from the same truck is one thing we can do that FedEx can't. With the price of gas these days it's very costly to be driving to the same stop multiple times. Every time you deliver ground and air together you should feel good about one-upping the competition. Ideally the whole car is set up in stop for stop order. The idea is to use the commit list in the DIAD to determine how best to work in the commit stops and know where the packages are loaded on the car. Sometimes the air has to go in the 1000 section for bulk routes, etc, where you can't get through the cars in the morning. Your dispatcher could put air and ground in the beginning of the load if it's a daily occurrence. When you use duplicate stop all you're losing is the stop allowance (less than 2 minutes). You still get credit for the miles and packages. The duplicate stop thing is about getting your stop count right...it allows your dispatcher to better plan the right amount of stops on the car. Don't give up on your preloader, be a squeaky wheel with your manager about it. I agree with the consignees. Multiple deliveries from the same vehicle is something that should be corrected. [/QUOTE]
