Any advice would be greatly appreciated..

Dont use your car. i dont understand how people from my office have been sacked for using thier cars yet people on here talk about insuring their cars to deliver mail?

You can use your car, and that goes for everyone - but you have to fill in the correct forms and supply your documents for inspection.

Actually, it costs me £13 a week for a bus pass instead of £10 a week petrol....

On a serious note though, how many foot delivery staff on here have a car but DONT use it? In my office the number is zero, everyone with a car uses it.

Good Grief


No,no no no no no no, do not use your car ,what if your float is a non driver or better still not a mug eh? ,there will probably be no provision of a bike or trolley because they would have been withdrawn because of the shear volume of numpties in your office.

Me, you dont see Firemen using their own Fire Engines so why should we use our own vehicles?

Never had bikes or trolleys in our office. Pouch drop point is a shop right in the middle of the walk, which is where I take my bags and also leave the car. I split my walk down into light bags because I have a knee condition (not caused by being a Postie!) and I can't be bothered waiting around for drivers forever, I had enough of that.

Er, no it isn't. Have a look around the forum -the bulk of the problems we are now facing are caused by a computer program (pegasus/Georoute) which has nothing whatsoever to do with using cars.

Calm down A few quid a year extra insurance (which we need anyway for my girlfriend as she needs to drive to courses) and less petrol than a bus pass costs me. That's not really paying to do the job is it? On top of which I make plenty of time, and until either clocking/in out or back to the office and work until your time is introduced I always will make time because I get on with the job. If either of those are introduced i'll stop using the car, no problem.

It's not my fault I work in a good office and Pegasus, Collapsing, Banking of hours and a table top revision have all been fine.

The people that are actually the worst at the moment are the idiots that are working over their time every day, completing 5 and 6 hour walks when the agreement is 3.5hrs.

I'm forced to use a van so I don't have to use my car but I do know of one person who doesn't use the van provided for him but instead uses his car

That's unfair linkinpark, most of us of a certain age like the muppets but we would find it difficult to like any of these people, instead of calling them muppets we should call then mps or lawyer
