If your driver drives a 10k lb truck or less, overtime will apply if you can't rotate shifts. One advantage- the other days will have fewer stops, so if you pay by the hour, you might save a little, plus the extra van allowance- if they still have that. But you will be increasing maintenance costs by 20% by driving the route an extra day. 6 day weeks for long routes could be broken down into two shifts- 3 day workweek about 12 hours a day.</p></blockquote><p></p>
