Sure post is supposed to be for residential only.
Not according to the Package Division at IBT.
They (a guy) there told us that a surepost pkg can be delivered to a business if it's for a person who works there and not the business itself. What a joke.
I'm just going to DR that pkg separately at the business address.
I asked him how we were supposed to police that. Didn't get an answer on that either.
You can see the held pkgs that got sent to the p.o. by noticing the double pal label...one on top the other...and if you look at the address (final destination) you'll prob notice that you had a stop there the day before or it was a proximity stop that you could have delivered the day before.
You're right I've. They're controlling our route volume and the union is in confusion or in cahoots with it.
I personally believe it's center by center in nature but I know they sent the vast majority of surepost to the p.o. at peak because I witnessed it. Duplicate stops, over 10# pkgs and commercial stops of surepost being diverted to the post office.
They want to make it as hard as possible to police.
