[QUOTE="STFXG, post: 1450225, member: 41750"] I know exactly why that's the case. I run both. And they don't pay the same rates per package/mileage as they do for Ground. Different pay structures. You also own less with an HD route. You have a "primary zip code" If you are servicing more than 1 zip code then you only own that 1 that is your primary. They can give the rest away to another contractor if an open PSA becomes available. Anyone can bid and they can give it to who they want to (though it usually goes to the one servicing the area). HD is just a headache. Not worth it in my opinion. I would dump my HD route, but it gives me flexibility with the Ground route I have for the same area. Total pay is about 2/3 of what my Ground route pays doing the exact same area. [/QUOTE]
