For home-delivery couriers and furniture teams
Courier route planning software for your working day
Furniture and bulky-item rounds need time at the address as well as time on the road. THDG introduces Drive It and Nexus route planning tools for couriers organising the collections and deliveries they have agreed to carry out.
What is courier route planning software?
Courier route planning software organises jobs into a stop sequence. A useful plan considers collection before delivery, service time, the working day and the practical details at each address.
Check the items and service instructions before arranging the stops. A collection must happen before the onward delivery, and access or handling details can affect the time needed. A route should be reviewed as a working day, not only a sequence of postcodes.
A practical walkthrough
Prepare, review and carry out the route
- Review item descriptions, addresses and agreed crew or handling requirements.
- Set up the route and check collection dependencies and the proposed stop order.
- Hand the stop list to the driver workflow and record the outcome of each visit.
This approach is useful for retailer work, direct customers and return collections. Start with Drive It for your own jobs, or use Nexus when an office needs to coordinate bookings, routes and customer records together.
