[QUOTE="JoesUPSacct, post: 4653685, member: 82124"] if i remember correctly, my ors told me that their package selection time allowance was 18 seconds. i don't bother doing a real sort/misload check until i'm stopped and about to take lunch. however each time i open the bulkhead door if i can't grab the package i'm looking for i make sure to put at least a few of them in the right order and pull stuff closer to the door so that my time back there wasn't wasted. if this stop took me 30 seconds i make sure my next stop is 2 seconds, etc. what also helps me is when i have let's say 30 packages with a hin of 5732. i know which direction i'm going down the street (high numbers to lower numbers or low to high etc) so i put them in order that way and always try and put multiple packages going to the same address together the first time so i don't have to look through 30 a second time. another thing i do using the example of 30 packages with hin of 5732, since preload can't be bothered to do their job and i don't have time to do it for them i try to make sure that one of the packages with a visible hin is at the end of the row so even if i have to walk past 30 packages i see 5732 at the end and know where the next hin begins. i'm always on a mixed business/resi route anyway so half of my day is counted in minutes not 18 seconds. veterinarian has 42 boxes of medicine and dog food? good luck pulling that out in 18 seconds.
