It would depend on the agreed delivery span in your DO.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Working from a trolley takes longer as you have to cover dead ground by moving it along. Suppose it depends who they want to pair you up with in a van.

Deliveries times are never the same but my walk takes 4-4.45 hrs with a trolley. People get round in about 3.45-4.15 using a car :neutral:

Even van share duties are supposed to use LWTs . Don't worry if they slow you down, we all know this but if RM want to make us work our full hours then they have easily ensured that and more with a trolley, use them to your advantage the managers hate it
