The best delivery route and canceling a delivery
The offer has been accepted. The delivery has begun, and the courier is on the move. The fastest route possible, is the plan. The pickup location is expecting a courier at a designated time. This is when knowledge of an area, can be a bonus.
With this in mind, the best delivery route is subjective. The experienced courier will know this as a fact, based on the train rule. The train rule says that any delivery that is already in a time crunch, will be delayed further by a train. Or, more accurately, an active railroad crossing.
The best delivery route
Furthermore, add in large scale road construction, and the chances for delays, skyrocket. In fact, almost anything can change a route from, smooth sailing, to traffic jam nightmares. Additionally the courier is being timed. The ratings will suffer from being late. Therefore route selection is important.
In most mapping apps, there is a highlight feature, for the suggested delivery route. The word suggested is used because the route is a suggestion in many cases. A courier that knows the area, also knows there is more than one way to reach a destination. Similarly, it is possible to save more time with the choice of the best delivery route.
A delivery app will offer the best route based on preset criteria. For example the shortest distance between two points. However, the courier can select the slightly longer distance, if it is mostly interstate, and will save ten minutes worth of red lights. As always, it is a courier’s choice.
Route selection makes all the difference. It can even affect how many completions the courier gets in one hour. Selecting the most efficient route is a benefit in more ways than one.
Canceling a delivery
After selecting the best delivery route the courier arrives at the pickup. Things are moving smoothly, until that moment when the snag appears. Not only is it a surprise but it also stops everything. The pickup has been given to the previous courier.
Now there is an accepted offer on the courier’s queue, and no cargo to pick up. It’s times like these when the special agents for app support, offer outstanding support. Furthermore, it is the best way to have the offer removed from the main queue. In this way, other couriers will not be bamboozled by a bogus bonus.
This is still the better way to cancel an order. Only removing it from the courier’s queue, just puts it back in the main queue. The support agents can cancel and remove the bogus offer. They excel at speedy service too, just like the courier. Stay safe out there.
