The heaviest package was 50lbs. And there was a total weight limit of 100lbs on the stop itself I believe. That’s tough.

50 pounds per package and the 100 pound limit was from one shipper on interstate shipments. Or maybe it was intrastate shipments. I don't remember which it was for sure.

I think 2nd Day Air was all we had then. NDA started in the mid 1980's or so.

No 1Z labels then. Most accounts hand stamped the shipper number on package and needed to add a red or blue sticker to upgrade the service.

we had to cut the sticker off and turn them in at night, along with COD stickers.

Do you mean the first NDA labels where the driver had to sign for every one and tear off the top copy and turn it in? That was a royal pain in the butt. Especially when I was picking up the biggest air shipper in the district at the time.
