2007. Tracked volume grew 100% for three years running after introduction, although it was still very rare to see one before every OPG had a PDA.

Re: parcels
average duty span is 6hours 30 mins tp 7 hours absolute nightmare, shared vans get 2 full yorks and a half, single duties get a full york of oversize, then u got all ur parcels above and off the absortion frames, without forced absortion be about 6 hour duties

Wow we have van shares that have 2500 delivery points, we also have a couple of rurals that have 600 points on them. None of them ever clear obviously, been going on for the best part of 3 years now.

Re: parcels
3 or 4 pairings that size, average will be about 900 - 1000 per duty. It’s was all based on having DPR drivers but then they pulled the rug on that.Perseus wrote: ↑11 Sep 2025, 20:45All van shares are 2500?

Re: parcels
Nah the worst ones are new estates from the last 10/15 years. You know the ones who order loads of parcels but are out at work 70 hours per week to pay for the house.Acca Dacca wrote: ↑11 Sep 2025, 21:29a lot of blocks of high rise flats or rows and rows of terraced housing im assumingClappedoutpostie wrote: ↑11 Sep 2025, 20:41Wow we have van shares that have 2500 delivery points, we also have a couple of rurals that have 600 points on them.
