How to fix the out of zone delivery.
The evening dinner rush can be busy. A lot happens in a short amount of time. Then an out of zone delivery offer is accepted. Extra time will be needed for the completion. Also, the drop-off location is isolated. It’s in another zone entirely. The courier will need to monitor resources closely.
Furthermore, those resources will have to stretch even further. Because now there is an unplanned long trip. The payout may be worth it. Maybe. In the future. However, it’s an adjustment in the budget. Currently. With this in mind, a penny saved is a penny earned.
Having a limited budget is normal for the courier. Getting the most bang for the buck is more than frugal. It’s bread and butter. Furthermore, the amount of fuel in the tank matters. It is the ante for an earnings opportunity. An all evening opportunity. Therefore, it is an important resource.
How to fix the out of Zone Delivery.
Accidentally accepting an offer is possible. Especially an offer located in another zone. Not only does it become an accepted offer, but also it is in the stats. Moreover, it becomes a less than positive influence on the stats. A negative.
Deciding to keep the delivery, is courier’s choice. If it’s even a small consideration, the ride should already be moving that way. But, what if it was an absolute mistake? For example, a butt dial or pocket accepted delivery. In that case, it might be best to drop the offer. Or backtrack.
The following link is an article from this site. (Canceling a delivery) The article details canceling, or dropping, delivery offers. Not every offer can be completed. There are times when it is necessary to cancel a delivery. Or, queue the run.
Furthermore, the courier should consider the impact in the ratings. As well as tiers. For example, rewards or perks. These are earned by accepting deliveries. Or lost by too many cancellations. A canceled delivery should be the rarest of events. And avoided, if at all possible. The impact to ratings can be harsh.
Should the courier decide to keep the offer, getting a completion is next. A quick response matters if the courier accepts the offer in a rush. Fast turnaround. The rush happens in all zones. The quicker the courier completes a delivery, in any zone, the better. Particularly in a rush.
Delivery
The delivery apps, have a feature that allows for moving across zones. Respectively. Offers can be accepted almost anywhere. Therefore, they can be completed, almost anywhere. This is a benefit to the courier. Always. As well as a challenge.
It takes attention to detail, and careful navigation, for the courier to complete a delivery. In another zone. Remaining in that zone, is the next step in the fix. Of course, the courier can reset to the original zone. Pausing live deliveries is possible. Don’t forget to toggle back in. When back at the start.
Managing resources is important for the courier. It is not always a shift breaker, to switch a game plan. Occasionally it becomes a prosperous diversion. Flexibility is an important part of the courier hustle. Stay safe out there.
