Any good advice regarding sorting and delivering door2doors?

ok get one that opens up and put all the rest inside or fold them over so its essentially one piece. Then i deliver as the frame one row per day and take the whole row with you even if u have no letters since d2d are live mail;

How heavy are your bags when you're taking 5 or 6 lots of d2d in this way?

Perfectly fine as long as you separate them before posting.

I do them in columns which is ok apart from Mondays when I have two columns to do because I have seven columns on my frame.Usually end up cutting off on Mondays because i have 260 d2d drops just on my delivery on a Monday which means a lot longer prep if I have more than one lot of d2ds.I am sure this has not been built into indoor time because it can take up to 45-60 mins just to prep d2ds if I have 4 or 5 lots as its another 1300 items to prep.

Hi.
Im a newbie postie and i'm stuggling with some D2D's

I'm guessing that as a new posty you are part time. You really need to check, but it's unlikely you are meant to be prepping door to doors anyway. In my office all part timers have their door to doors prepped for them. Usually anyway..

When I first started I thought they all had to be delivered in one day, so my bags where packed!

Hello Newbie, just do what TrueBlue suggested - prep them into the frame (before or after the mail) then deliver.

I am surprised people are giving you any other type of advice. D2Ds should really not be delivered separately from another bundle - it makes things difficult especially when you have fiddles ones or have up to about 4-6d2ds.

Furthermore, D2D is now classed as part of the mail - many part-timers have them prepped into the frame already and many FT staff even prep them (sometimes all the rows and columns in one go) beforehand and simply take where they are going for the day.

It should not be a concern, really! Columns better than rows and writing the number of the address of the first d2d where there is no corresponding letter.

and what is wrong with nesting?

its not allowed. The Corporate customers complain when you deliver a nested one to one of their staff/spies.

Find a dustbin. Insert D2Ds. Retreat hastily!

Nesting is fine for prepping and carrying door to doors with other mail - they usually separate as they fall through a letterbox

They definitely separate when they lob them in the recycling bin.
