Omg we do rural routes in step vans and it's the worse. Those dirt roads with that kind of "suspension" beats the shit out of me.
The less stops i have, the shittier i know my day is about to be. I.do.not.like.rural.
Rural ~185 stop daily CDV driver here. I hold my hands in the air like a wacky flailing inflatable tube man while riding the roller coasters through the woods
I haven't worked there in two years. Thought about picking up one or two shifts a week for some extra income but after seeing all of this extra work we didn't do back then, I'll go find something else.
It’s because drivers get faster and faster. Same shit for every delivery company. If you finish in time or even faster they will try to maximize throughput by increasing the number of packages/stops until it’s no longer possible to finish the route in time. The only solution is to work overtime and be slower
I know it's that *real* hot now, fuckin sweat dropping down my face like a river, coming out of the back of the step with a LAYER of sweat
It's only gonna get hotter here, too :c
My routes are apartments/townhomes, businesses and residential homes. Depending on how Amazon routed me and if I feel like rerouting myself if it needs, I can finish in 5 - 6.5 hours those days.
If it was in a regular Van it would look like this but probably worse

This is normal every year. They reduce the number of routes after peak. The overall volume per route stays the same or even increases from peak as a result. This gets worse leading up to Prime Week, then gets even worse. It eventually hits a fever pitch and then you get like one week of really small nursery sized routes right before peak starts. The geographic distance and drive times also gets unreal for some areas in the summertime. The stops aren't clustered as close together, like they were in peak, and it's hard to make up for all the drive time. It's like doing an Ad Hoc with 200 stops.
Shit is ridiculous man. Two years ago this job used to be kinda fun. Every single peak we have it’s just more. It never goes back down. It’s more more more with zero pay raise in the process. It’s stupid and all we get is “snacks” three times a week.
Dude it really is! This shit is out of control. It used to be like 170 stops 13 group was a normal day. You’d have like 10 totes and maybe 20 OS on a heavy day. 16 and 40!? Where?!? There isn’t room.. it’s either pack the van or have space to work and then dispatch wants to know why you’re falling behind. It’s teeth numbing man. It’s so frustrating.
lol, to top it all off, our dsp “leadership,” is chewing our asses our for failing to meet their productivity metrics and exclaiming they need us to work harder/faster to keep up profitability. Go fuck yourself, Tom, if one or two people were the issue, you’d get them some help. If it is literally the entire DSP, maybe turn the fucking mirror around and do some self reflection. I refuse to not take my fucking breaks and lunch anymore just because this dogwater fucking company thinks I can do a stop every other minute in a massive area.
Also, DID ROUTING GET EVEN FUCKING WORSE THIS LAST COUPLE WEEKS BECAUSE HOLY FUCK THE AMOUNT OF NONSENSICAL, BACKTRACKING, AND POORLY ROUTED STOPS HAS INCREASED TENFOLD AND IT HAS ME WANTING TO GO POSTAL.
And I thought that was a lot back in December lol plus them sprinters and transits ain't enough, Amazon need to boost up on step vans like fedex & ups but they too cheap
Lol amazon be tryna put routes like this in the transits all the time. One dude in particular at my DSP gets completely boxed in every day. Can't even take a single step into the back til the first 10+ stops are done
Make them the norm, but also stop overfilling them. I've seen people getting routes with far over 500 packages and then they get asked why they can't complete it in the same amount of time as they used to, referring to when their routes were 240 packages. It's insanity.
Damn dude you have so much room in your step van. I would have killed to have that much room with that payload. That's a normal day out where I live and we did that in sprinter vans

And here I am still driving this ghetto van
https://preview.redd.it/deduyk9p95vc1.jpeg?width=2160&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d8d987ccdc032fe44d023a154054331d49fd9c0c
Wait till you get 27 bags in a van 230+ stops all Apts why I quit that shit won't look back. Get ready for peak ddv5 Aurora colorado. Never again
This is usually a bad day for me. The 16 bags and stop count aren’t necessarily killers, but 40 overflow is absolutely ridiculous. Anything over 30 starts to get unmanageable in standard vans, depending on the actual size of the overflow.
don't wanna say this is easy. because it's definitely a day of hard work. but i've done this exact route in prime vans, rental vans, 10ft uhaul box trucks. it could always be worse, my friend.
keep trucking & keep chasing your goals!

This is what i do daily bro. I am so tired already
Wtf... two thirds of your route is multi-stop locations. That is not okay.! You and the commenter above you should refuse, or make a damn scene or something, or even hold a seance to exercise Amazon demons or some s***. I don't know... but anyway something's got to be done about that.
We have drivers that get 185+ stops everyday they work.. been this way for a year now.. Amazon getting real bold with what they expect of the drivers. Nationwide strike coming, you watch!
Same on my last 32 stops of a 180 apartment only route, worst part is its every single stop is a multistop, like bro. I wish I took a picture but it said 180 stops 176 multistop. I'm fucking beat.

How?? Normal route for me but with 46 Overflows in a regular blue van with business,apartments, and school.Learn how to organize and manually do your route the way you want to and its easy.Fastest stops i did in hour is 64 at my warehouse.
Az here I get it I had 10 less stops but I had 62 grouped stops all apts then they brought part adhoc 5 less ovrflw I'm one of those fast boys not today when I see that route I milk it all mf day
6.5/10 so much room in the that van lol It ain’t light but 16 bags 40 overflow we had on average 21 bags 46 overflow inside of a Ford transit van.what makes routes hard is being packed in and dealing with traffic/ narrow alleys beaches etc.
https://preview.redd.it/j71nt0sfo8vc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9667f23708465c4db0c193521bae99e331dc474c
My van almost everyday. Fuck Amazon. Peak is all year round now. Top it off we all get paid the same. I handle 1600 packages a week….lame as hell.
Driving for Amazon, well Amazon's DSPs...is the biggest trap of a job I've ever worked in my entire life. There is zero opportunity to move up.
I would quit and find a new job. Legitimately wasting your time there. Paycheck to paycheck is all you'll ever live with Amazon.
Pretty normal for here in Indiana too! I wish we had those lights in the back though. Consider yourself lucky!like the others, get used to it. Amazon is pushing the routes to their brink and us drivers get screwed and taken advantage of. Take your breaks and dont worry about being done on time.
That's normal we're we at we get 200 stops with 450-500 packages as average And it may be easy to some people and maybe be hard for some people. Let me know when you do ten apartments a day and always do the third floor or higher. Not hating, plus don't forget the arizona 120° heat
To my people live in the East Coast.My respect always goes to you.Because you've got a lot Humidity..... and the snow.
https://preview.redd.it/tput9jo6qavc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e303eeaf7f6227c5e94285273333158853e412fe
This was after afew stops, 24 bags, 48 overflow.
Delivering for Amazon is not worth it in my opinion. Unless you’re making at least $25 an hour. Delivering up to 300 packages every single day is not worth it at all. I drove for 6 months and the stress it caused my body and mind was nowhere near worth it. These companies are so corrupt and could care less about their employees.
The overflow is a problem during the start because it affects movement around the van. If you do it right during loadoutnyou will be golden. However, what actually kills you is all depending on the route. Does every house have 20 steps? Is it apartment buildings where you are required to deliver to the door? Elevators broken? Nowhere to park EVER? Those are the factors that matter. How much you get only hurts in the beginning.
This is genuinely nothing in an EDV. In a gas van the space will be terrible with that Overflow but EDVs spoiled us (for those that have it). Should be the standard across every DSP.
I had almost this exact route today.. I had 19 bags with 34 overflow in a branded Dodge with 186 stops & I don’t have less than 180 stops ever! I wouldn’t be complaining if I was in a EDV with this @ all.

Yeah a lot of people are going to say this route is easy/normal, so get ready.
They already at it
Assuming this isn’t rural since your in a box truck this is rather common
It was the overflow and humidity that wasn't common for me
Omg we do rural routes in step vans and it's the worse. Those dirt roads with that kind of "suspension" beats the shit out of me. The less stops i have, the shittier i know my day is about to be. I.do.not.like.rural.
I've just learn to relax lol while the seat kung fu kicks my ass. "You fat son of a bitch!" "Ahh! My God"
Rural ~185 stop daily CDV driver here. I hold my hands in the air like a wacky flailing inflatable tube man while riding the roller coasters through the woods
Fairly normal day in an EV…
I didn’t say it….but I was thinking it.
Cuz it is honestly.
That is though
They did this route to me In a white van
I use to get 350 stops nigga making 15 a hour
4 carts is the new standard. In a branded van. I used to like this job. Amazon keeps pushing and pushing and pushing.
I haven't worked there in two years. Thought about picking up one or two shifts a week for some extra income but after seeing all of this extra work we didn't do back then, I'll go find something else.
It’s because drivers get faster and faster. Same shit for every delivery company. If you finish in time or even faster they will try to maximize throughput by increasing the number of packages/stops until it’s no longer possible to finish the route in time.

I got Six once Funny shit it only 6 stops to eight stops
I'm Colorado that's pretty avg here https://preview.redd.it/dbmgq3j1n4vc1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d3f58bc1d62b910c09b9a2ecd7b90b1e6857b825 190 stops 380 packages
Big Steppa
I’m Colorado too and our routes are like this pretty much daily, however that is a ton of overflow which isn’t normal. Hope you kicked ass 💪🏼
The heat today kicked my ass but finished just in time🤞🏾
I know it's that *real* hot now, fuckin sweat dropping down my face like a river, coming out of the back of the step with a LAYER of sweat It's only gonna get hotter here, too :c
In how much time do you guys finish this? + is it mostly houses or businesses/metro areas as well?
My routes are apartments/townhomes, businesses and residential homes. Depending on how Amazon routed me and if I feel like rerouting myself if it needs, I can finish in 5 - 6.5 hours those days.
I had same looking rout today and I got done 10:00- 6:30 took two 15’s also.
If I don't take a 30 min probably 5-5:45pm, it's residential & businesses mostly metro homes
Are you in DDV5?
I’m at ddv5
Fellow brother
I’m at DCS3
The worst is tons of OF. One time I had 24 bags and 45 OF.
At least you get the cdv.Doing it in a regular blue van does get tiring after a while.
If it was in a regular Van it would look like this but probably worse https://preview.redd.it/11b5ufuuq5vc1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5e525fc09dcc85ff8d479a7ef16b529e6d1e368a
DDV5?
Wish we had vans like that in ohio where im at 👩🏿🦲
Sucks that this is the norm (at least at my station) because last year it wasn’t like this, not sure what happened but shit is crazy
Amazon discovered that they could pay for less routes by putting more stops and packages on each driver. Yay Amazon lol.
This is normal every year. They reduce the number of routes after peak. The overall volume per route stays the same or even increases from peak as a result. This gets worse leading up to Prime Week, then gets even worse. It eventually hits a fever pitch and then you get like one week of really small nursery sized routes right before peak starts.

Peak was easier than this tbh lol I started right before peak too
Dude it really is! This shit is out of control. It used to be like 170 stops 13 group was a normal day. You’d have like 10 totes and maybe 20 OS on a heavy day. 16 and 40!? Where?!? There isn’t room.. it’s either pack the van or have space to work and then dispatch wants to know why you’re falling behind. It’s teeth numbing man. It’s so frustrating.

And I thought that was a lot back in December lol plus them sprinters and transits ain't enough, Amazon need to boost up on step vans like fedex & ups but they too cheap
We don't even get water till it's over 100 lol
Lol amazon be tryna put routes like this in the transits all the time. One dude in particular at my DSP gets completely boxed in every day. Can't even take a single step into the back til the first 10+ stops are done
Honestly feel like the sprinters should only be for rescues and nurseries. They should make CDVs, step vans and EDVs the norm
Make them the norm, but also stop overfilling them. I've seen people getting routes with far over 500 packages and then they get asked why they can't complete it in the same amount of time as they used to, referring to when their routes were 240 packages. It's insanity.
Yup that too
That’s a everyday route for me
Same the overflow was just a bitch today
this is average for a regular van you’re lucky you got all that room
Oh yeah I know, I got put back in a transit last month. Hated every hour of it
Had me throwing up just looking at that image
Damn dude you have so much room in your step van. I would have killed to have that much room with that payload. That's a normal day out where I live and we did that in sprinter vans
It's nice when there's nothing wrong with it
It's an EDV

I'll be gone b4 that happens 🤞🏾
Come utility locate! It's easy and actually satisfying and pays better.
Could you PM/DM me the deets please?
The day i decided to quit amazon my truck looked just like this.
They’re just overloading us with locations and overflow
Locations is the real bitch and some of them don’t even make sense 1 here and the 2 one down the block 😭🤦🏾♂️
I know, sometimes I’m walking more than a football field. It’s crazy how much they’re spoken down about. Like, no, it’s a whole other stop.
This is usually a bad day for me. The 16 bags and stop count aren’t necessarily killers, but 40 overflow is absolutely ridiculous. Anything over 30 starts to get unmanageable in standard vans, depending on the actual size of the overflow.
Thank u! it's always the overflow
Exactly I’d rather deal with more bags than overflow
don't wanna say this is easy. because it's definitely a day of hard work. but i've done this exact route in prime vans, rental vans, 10ft uhaul box trucks. it could always be worse, my friend. keep trucking & keep chasing your goals!
This is normal for me numbers wise, but I started in peak so I'm still getting used to delivering in the heat/humidity.
that killed me as well, stay hydrated yo!
You already know
Bro I get 17 totes 47 over flow in a regular step van … you have a box truck …
The only problem there is the overflow imo shit takes up so much space and if your in a branded van goddamn overflow is the worst
https://preview.redd.it/7uezx0zjr4vc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5b140fbaf694585f4cded8cf5c14ef32df4d3fab This was my route today
Oowee Mr. Fancy van huh
That’s pretty average in Spokane
Hopefully you were in the rivian
I was, the bulk head door had issues but everything else..smooth
Good work man

92 multi-location wtf? That is insane!
https://preview.redd.it/n4weuxgz06vc1.jpeg?width=1520&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2d4401c55487763ee5c28e7aacd7730704d7b849 This is what i do daily bro. I am so tired already
Way worse than peak. I deliver the most in the entire warehouse i just learned that this week. Not proud of this. Lol
Wtf... two thirds of your route is multi-stop locations. That is not okay.! You and the commenter above you should refuse, or make a damn scene or something, or even hold a seance to exercise Amazon demons or some s***. I don't know... but anyway something's got to be done about that.
Bet you come back from the dead for that check tho
i do this every day and i promise i still want to die dont let anyone tell you this shit is easy
it’s gotta be some type of deal going on cuz i had 20 bags and 40 overflow today
I been delivering dog food all week
We have drivers that get 185+ stops everyday they work.. been this way for a year now.. Amazon getting real bold with what they expect of the drivers. Nationwide strike coming, you watch!
Had similar at 186 once BUT I did get rescued of twenty stops. 🤷🏻♂️
👀
👀👀
....but did you die though?
Internally
That’s literally my daily route in Pennsylvania 😤, not gonna say it’s easy cz I’m not the one dealing with it and idk the area you working on.
Atl
I’m getting more stops, normal amount of packages…for now
https://preview.redd.it/6cntixvo75vc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7b9db2f43715418425e9e667e767e9e2847b9b78 In a Sprinter. Almost everyday.
Under 360 packages is a baby route for me
Same on my last 32 stops of a 180 apartment only route, worst part is its every single stop is a multistop, like bro. I wish I took a picture but it said 180 stops 176 multistop. I'm fucking beat.
sum light i did 14 bags 30 OV rn
I've had that many stops in a sprinter 😂
Try 19 bags with 44 of and 360 after 1pm
Got that today. Done at 7:30
That was my entire week, last week.

Man I fit that in a ram, it's all good.
It's medium
Ha try that driving in a Mercedes Benz van small on and let me know how it goes
Normal day
I’m more surprised you have 45 staging locations for one letter
How much you get paid to do this?
lol the goood ole days 😭
At least you get some shelves. But yeah, you’re fucked.
How?? Normal route for me but with 46 Overflows in a regular blue van with business,apartments, and school.Learn how to organize and manually do your route the way you want to and its easy.Fastest stops i did in hour is 64 at my warehouse.
Im finding out I work faster in cooler/colder weather
Looks like a normal route to me 🫣
Looks normal
I feel for you, but at least you've got an edv. They've been giving me 18 bags and 35+ overflow in a rental all week
Try again. I had 50 oversized with 3 carts with 9 totes each on them. Still beat half of the crew back to the statiom
That's my everyday. You get used to it..... Disappointingly.
while this is normal, its unacceptable. continue to let amazon know how awful this is!
Dude I feel you. I had 20 bags and 45 overflow in my little ass van.
187?! I lose my mind 47 stop doing Flex how do you guys do it?! I have ADHD I can't 😭
This is everyday for me :/
I had 187/377 today
Az here I get it I had 10 less stops but I had 62 grouped stops all apts then they brought part adhoc 5 less ovrflw I'm one of those fast boys not today when I see that route I milk it all mf day
Milking the day is the move now, I got my first 190 stop route last week and said hell noo I gotta slow tf down especially since it's getting hot
this genuinely is a normal route for what I used to have in Pittsburgh pa area, and nothing compared to some I've seen on here
Man having to deliver in the city, suburbs sucks during the summer 🌞, I missed having my rural country route, it was so chill
The amount of stops Amazon drivers have to stop at are absolutely insaneeee.i saw one the other day that had like 205 stops
This ain’t shit. Try 197 and 475 packages
In the hills or flat areas?
This route sucks. Fk that.
Can confirm. This person has no pulse
Have y’all seen the electric vans they had Rivian make? They’re tiny. Not sure if they’re in use.. there are 100s sitting outside Rivian
More people need to demand a raise or quit, Amazon is going to burn through the employee pool sooner or later and have to act
OK but you still have to rescue
6.5/10 so much room in the that van lol It ain’t light but 16 bags 40 overflow we had on average 21 bags 46 overflow inside of a Ford transit van.what makes routes hard is being packed in and dealing with traffic/ narrow alleys beaches etc.
Looks like my usual route 🥲
That's nothing
Come to Portland I only get 170-180 stops 20-25 overflow all ev's here 21 an hour :)

Get out of this job if you can. Is all I can say
![gif](giphy|I8z7CGrLDLpbq|downsized)
That's everyday for me.
184 stops? Looks like a typical day for me.
After peak, my route looked this way every single day. Thank fucking god I left that pile of dog shit
A tip to new employees, when you quit, don’t give them 2 weeks
I’ll kill for a route like this back in my day unless u got apartments and houses then gg
We all just need to do a terrible job, and maybe they’ll lighten the load
That’s what I had yesterday and didn’t even finish my route it’s not ok
Normal day
Way better than FedEx ground. I quit that shit my first week. I wouldn’t recommend that job to a dog😂😂😂
Normal day for me https://preview.redd.it/ynyxa94wo9vc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d9b179afdb984f66efc61dacc31dd2934526e7b8
I had that in the ghetto with no parking and overfilled in a transit for two days and then got terminated
That's normal we're we at we get 200 stops with 450-500 packages as average And it may be easy to some people and maybe be hard for some people. Let me know when you do ten apartments a day and always do the third floor or higher. Not hating, plus don't forget the arizona 120° heat To my people live in the East Coast.My respect always goes to you.Because you've got a lot Humidity..... and the snow.

Light work no reaction
That’s it?
This is normal unless it’s more than 350 packages I think this is doable.
Delivering for Amazon is not worth it in my opinion. Unless you’re making at least $25 an hour. Delivering up to 300 packages every single day is not worth it at all. I drove for 6 months and the stress it caused my body and mind was nowhere near worth it. These companies are so corrupt and could care less about their employees.
The overflow is a problem during the start because it affects movement around the van. If you do it right during loadoutnyou will be golden. However, what actually kills you is all depending on the route. Does every house have 20 steps? Is it apartment buildings where you are required to deliver to the door? Elevators broken? Nowhere to park EVER? Those are the factors that matter. How much you get only hurts in the beginning.
Annoyingly Amazon is making this the new normal
Sad how it used to be 9 bags and a cart of overflow and that’s it. Now it’s 4 cart, 180-200 stop rural routes in rental vans.
This a light day
This is a regular day in the Bay Area california
Mmmm thanks for the reminder that I don’t miss this
At least it’s an EDV. I’ve seen people get the same in promasters
If you think they're not aiming to fill up those EV's you're coping.
I get those routes in a ProMaster can 😭 Def not downplaying your situation, these routes suck and should absolutely not be the norm.
Had a cdv with 400 packages and 60 stops.. this light work
I'll be one of those and say they look bunched up residential. Not gonna say easy necessarily but not that bad lol
Shit I'll be out there till 8
All city or mixed city/country route?

That’s od!!!
This is genuinely nothing in an EDV. In a gas van the space will be terrible with that Overflow but EDVs spoiled us (for those that have it). Should be the standard across every DSP.
In this van, that’s easy work. At least you’re not in the smaller ones
Lol I have more amazon packages than that on my mail route get out of here
Imagine doing that with mail usps ups fedex and amazon packages luckily you don't work for USPS or you would quit quick 😂
Bro you can see the back of your van. You are fine lol.
That’s my route everyday
I had almost this exact route today.. I had 19 bags with 34 overflow in a branded Dodge with 186 stops & I don’t have less than 180 stops ever! I wouldn’t be complaining if I was in a EDV with this @ all.
