They are struggling to recruit owner drivers anyway .

At present the routes are too large and there are too many large overweight parcels .

The 1 hour delivery time windows are mostly unachievable .

98% of parcels are proof of delivery open doorway (cannot be left any safe place ) so there is a high return to depot rate .

All the above puts owner drivers off and the go work for yodel who handle much smaller parcels .

I agree with the statement that we should integrate with royal mail and take items above shoe box size which would lead to smaller routes and cost savings .

Owner drivers in there scruffy clothes and dirty old white vans add nothing to the company and should all be dismissed .
