When you have an important delivery that needs to be made and time is sensitive and counting down, traffic is the last thing you want to see; especially if you can see how long the line goes ahead of you. When it comes to car accidents, you obviously have to be sensitive to the people involved but you also have to understand that you, too, have a responsibility to finish; delivering that package.
When we are confronted with backed up traffic or an accident creating a backup, we always utilize technology first and foremost from GPS navigation systems to good ole Mr. Google. Now-a-days, with the unlimited amount of apps being created for our smart phones, we have found one amazing app (beside the obvious Google Maps) that has significantly helped our business achieve new heights and reach new goals when confronted with the dreaded traffic demon: Waze.
A Great App For That
Not only is this app amazing for re-routing and helping us get around a problem, but it is a crowd sourced app that has lots of other obstacles listed for you in real time; like obstacles in the roadway or a car pulled off the side of the road. This is done in real time by users of the app and allows them (us) to say if that obstacle is still present or if it has been cleared/cleaned off.
When approached with these situations, the re-route option has saved us many hours of traffic delays and sitting in bumper to bumper car lots. If you have yet to check the app out, we highly recommend it. Our drivers are always safe and adhere to the laws but the Waze app has a feature that some of you other drivers (maybe some of you speeders reading this right now) may find nifty. It has the ability to show you if any police are near and where they are located helping to save you from any unwanted tickets.
We’re Using This App In All Vehicles
We highly stress that you no speed and to avoid breaking any laws but the feature itself was worth mentioning. This app has now been installed in all of our buses, cars, and trucks and we have trained all of our drivers in using their smartphones along with this app while stressing the importance of safety and keeping the eyes on the road. In this world of deliveries and transportation, safety is the main concern for both you, our drivers, and our packages.
In return, that also includes our clients and customers as we promised them a safe delivery of their package. We are mentioning this to you because we take great pride in our business, our drivers, and our dedication to safety and delivering packages with the utmost efficiency and safety. If you feel like you might have all of these qualities and desire to seek a position with us, please inquire on our contact us page or come in and see us.
Phone inquiries are normally directed to an in-person meeting anyways so we will save you some time and tell you not to call about a job. Just come on in or email us through our website on the Contact Page.
