I’ve found that scheduling my routes during off-peak hours really helps me avoid those crazy traffic jams. , nothing drives me nuts like getting stuck behind slow drivers when I could be making quick drops! @Guide mentioned improving customer ratings, and I’ve noticed that a friendly chat during quieter delivery times often leads to better reviews. It’s all about those little interactions.

I totally get the appeal of flexible hours! I once started my deliveries at dawn to beat the morning rush, and it felt like I had the whole road to myself β€” like being in a delivery superhero movie. Just a heads-up though, early mornings come with their own set of challenges, especially coffee-fueled traffic later.
