You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
Vehicle number? DVIR? They're delivering interstate goods.

Might be that they are not considered commercial vehicles, but that is only a guess.

From what we have been told it is for more rural areas. Driver will leave a bunch of pieces in either a storage locker or someone's garage. The seasonals will the run the stuff that is out of the way while the normal drivers will grab the more dense stuff.
We had a conference call with the guy in the district who is in charge of it all. I will say I was actually impressed with how much thought they have put into it. There were some tough questions asked and they had some pretty good answers on it.

How do you bend at the knees when lifting out of the trunk or back door of a '98 chevy cavalier? Do they need to recite the Five and Ten? Do they have to back at less than 3mph and honk??? Jesus H Christ man, who's in charge around here???

Someone sign for the packages in the garage??? I'm not leaving them.

They're not getting physicals or DOT numbers. They would just show up, load packages, then deliver them. These people will be your average joe with nothing to lose trying to make a buck. None of these guys will have 6 figure 401k and matching house.

They will be issued a vehicle number by the company just like the peak rentals. They don't need a DOT card.
I find it amazing that so many people thing UPS hasn't run this past the legal department.

If I catch one of these guys not following the methods I'm taking a baseball bat to their windshield.

It's not some random's garage. It would be a supervisor's or someone at UPS

Good, then I'll leave half the truck there.

Half the lies they tell about me aren't true!!
They can use my garage but it won't be cheap.

Nothing. But use to most seasonals were part timers.
This will become a problem as we have to bring in more and more outsiders for peak.

They want storage units, but would most likely use garages if nothing is available

Yea then when you finish at 9pm you find out the guy never showed up to deliver those and you have to go get them and deliver them.

I'm surprised they are willing to take the hit to the company image. People freak out and don't belive I'm a driver when I'm in a uhaul.
Right or wrong people expect more from ups. Will these guys have uniforms? Be held to appearance standards?
That's a big double standard.

Wasn't on the call for that half. I hopped on at the end
