Prep Fittings

Post by Tuffers1875 »

What/were your favourite type of fitting? I remember when I started that the rurals had wooden box fittings and you had to 'place' the mail into walk order. Then came the slot type fitting where the walk had slots for each house and it also had a solid base so the mail didn't catch as you put it in the slot. Then came the RM2000 fitting; flimsy, holes at the base, so mail gets caught up when prepping. The RM2000 has to be the worst doesn't it?

What's your fave?

The old one street pigeon box fittings! No mistakes with double prepping :left:

We went from them to the RM2000 and it was a game changer for us, cut an hour off our prep and when we managed to source some wings for them, wow :shock: some houses even have single slots :shock:
