One stop at a time is all you can do...
Some days 15-16 stops fall off the truck,
other days 8-10 stops come off hard and slow. It's the nature of the beast.

It also depends on whether you have a lot of junk freight, like stuff that's big, long, weighs 1000 lbs, you cant move it, and you certainly couldn't work around it if you're unable to deliver it. I've been seeing a lot of this junk freight lately.

18-22 stops a day is enough for any driver that has to cover a large area. Some days I only put on 50 miles with 15 deliveries...other days I might get about 110 until im empty. Just depends on the way the freight is routed.

That's all? I average about 250 miles a day.
 
the cust. may say they will go some where else but worked for a couple different ltl's and they are all the same no ther carrier will there frieght there any sooner because everybody runs into the same delays

also all the other carriers move start times around also

We got more freight then drivers, or trucks to deliver it with. No one wants to work for R&L around here....Bad reputation and haven't even been in town a year...To bad, very sad...
