There is a Bowflex distribution center close to my hub and they used to hafta run a "Bowflex" sort before the twilight just to process those things cause they caused so many jambs when run during the regular sort. I think they either they closed the distribution center or we lost the account cause I never see them anymore.
Just saw an ad for Bowflex on here! Ha Ha I don't know anybody at UPS that would order such a thing! All those heavy boxes. I don't think so!
That's why the sort has irreg trains, nothing that large should be put on the conveyor belts......

Yes Im aware of irreg trains. Most while large were right at 70 pounds so by just bowflex on the belts it didnt cause much of a problem. They would run 1 belt with 8 or 9 trucks that got hit the most and get rid of em. The bigger ones were brought around on trains but it would keep the trains tied up all night if they tried to run em during the twilight sort.

You mean yourself? Don't you live on your route?UPS employees would know enough to order them either addressed to the center or have them put on hold so that the driver did not have to struggle with them. When they got off road they would simply throw the pkgs in the back of their personal vehicle.
When I bought four new tires/wheels for my Colorado, I put them on hold and threw them in the back when I got off work. They were mounted, balanced, full of air and very heavy. I saved the driver for that area (me) the hassle of dealing with them all day.

Oh, sorry, didn't see the (me). So why wouldn't you just deliver them to yourself, wouldn't you like to get paid for carrying your tires up to your condo? At least I was paying attention to the fact that you are your route driver.That's what (me) means.

Now one ever accused know it all of being the sharpest knife in the drawer
I do not blame you one bit.
70lb tires that will not fit under the shelf, or on them, are just a major hassle to deal with all day.
