Finish fast just for dispatch to call you to rescue someone else that’s taking their time 😆 No thanks

Unfortunately all DSP’s don’t pay you for the whole day if you finish early.. that’s why I take my time.. not breaking my back rushing.. Good tips though.

Another tip take your breaks because if you finish to quickly Amazon will just keep adding stops on your routes

My advice is to stay inside the vehicle when looking around a complex for an apartment number because you will be surprise how much time you spent walking around looking for the apartment number(s) without your van on foot. Park absolutely anywhere you are not blocking cars and turn on your emergency lights, so people know its temporary parking. Always use your GPS when trying to find apartments (because apartments such as 100 and 101 are not always next to each other) and if you are trying to go behind a building on foot, most entrances in the middle usually lead to dead ends which are mostly: playgrounds, swimming pools, and patios. Take the far corners around the building and you will mostly find hidden numbers you couldn't see (especially for apartment buildings in corners). Most apartment layouts are usually weird and not straight forward like houses. They like making residents walk all the way around 2 to 3 conglomerate apartments buildings to get to their apartment number... The ones that have 62, 64, 66, 68 have 61, 63, 65, 67 almost always on the direct other side of the building. The most complicated buildings are the ones that have apartment numbers labeled in a triangular conglomerate building: some have 51 54, 57, 60 on one side, then 52, 55, 58, 61 on the other side, and 53, 56, 59, 62 on the other side (all like in a triangular idea from 3 main points). Most residents don't even know the layouts where they live and are mostly useless to ask information about this... The worst part is always trying to gain access inside the apartment vehicle gate which is a nightmare on wasting time. If this is a huge problem, skip it and come back later to it...

Good morning Tallahassee here, I don't know if you want to promote not turning off your Prime vehicle, due to the fact that DSPs contract every time you turn on and off your vehicle....😅 Not to mention it doesn't matter if the vehicle is on and your key fob is in your pocket, haven't you ever done the test, next time cut the vehicle on, give a secondary person your fob key and drive off see how far you get😮 You would then realize that as long as the vehicle is on it can travel wherever they go they just can't turn it off because it won't be able to restart without the fob......😢 People are in this the hard way, I learned this by teaching it to others. Seat belts😅 Makes you feel like you're not in the prime vehicles, while in these prime vehicles you are constantly surveillanced by the video's, placing your seatbelt is yes a good trick fast response in and out but also unsafe and still illegal, and the cameras catch every bit of it, so when you get in an accident and you find yourself harmed in a certain way your DSP can choose not to cover you because your seat belt wasn't securely fastened upon you, That's a risk that you take, and that that is also a risk that you place as you speak to your followers. The best way in quickest way that I found... 1. In loadout go ahead and put your first bag in the front of your seat, place a close basket in the passenger seat Hook a seat belt strapped within the bands of the basket to secure it, Play envelopes and small boxes inside of the basket, The big box is within the bag place on the floor of the passenger side door, Now your first bag is ready to go to your first stop You can save 15 to 20 minutes. 2. Sort your truck throughout the day at least three or five times. 3. If you choose to switch your phone instead of using the scanner from your DSP understand also that all these customers will have access to your phone number versus the DSPs, if you're comfortable with knowing that people you don't know will be calling you all types of the night to ask questions about their future packages then go ahead and go that route.... I use my phone as a backup in case the DSP scanner does go down I have a backup but it is the last option. (Trust me when I say customers if they have access to any number doesn't matter if you're on the clock or not they will call you or message you to ask for future references or questioned about their packages) 3. Pin code passwords-on these I'll stay in contact with the customers all day long, I'll tell them that I have left the station and I'm on the way to their city or state, I'll text them This is your Amazon driver I'll be at your location within 30 minutes or an hour depending on how close I am, I set times an appointment with these customers I build relationships. 4. Understand you are your own manager within your vehicle Your Prime vehicle is your office, You are your own secretary, The choices are yours in that day of that day Be strong of your day, treat the customers as your family, text them as often as you can and update them when you're on your way or when you have trouble because they expect and do time great delivery service.

First tip, make sure you get a type of van that your DSP doesn’t actually have

First bag in from left to right, first bag out. That's what we're taught during the training. The seat belt hack sounds helpful, but it's not the proper way to wear it when driving in general. You can get a ticket if pulled over by traffic police. I also suggest using your personal phone in an emergency situation.

Seatbelt trick can get you fired right away. The dash camera will detect if the belt is over your chest or not.

Good video, I’m starting out and nervous about this. I don’t understand what the 3 digits mean on the packaging (9:20 in your video) I was probably told but I can’t remember. Is it the house addresses?? We were taught to put the first deliveries in the front on the van behind drivers seat. I’m trying to get as much information as I can before I actually start.

Don't listen to this guy. He's still learning

Loving the videos! Keep it up! 😊

this helped me thanks man I had to get rescued on my first day yesterday

Ima just do the job the best of my ability and how long I take is how long I take

My dsp were worried from the first day of work that am not fast enough for the job and they fired me after the 2 nd week of work i don’t know if this is normal , i mean Iam still in the training process.

He s Good He Makes you Feel Comfortable while Explaining Nice

This dude bouta have hella ppl fired quickly… don’t listen to him. First they have EOC which is engine off compliance. This tracks daily and shows the percentage in which the van was actually powered on and off at each stop.Second there is a camera system called netradyne which is going to easily snitch you out with plugging in your seatbelt behind you. I can continue with all the flaws in his system but hopefully you get the just of it. 👍🏽 best of luck

Question, How do you organize the random U45, U79, numbers with the 9293, 9294 and 9295?

Yup, you learn off of EXPERIENCE!! 💪🏼🤘🏻

Love The Seat Belt Tip

Soooo. Finish early so Amazon algo can give you more work and most dispatchers wont increase your pay?

Do u use google maps to locate?

Also on sides steeets in not busy areas , I pull over on the drivers side if the house is on the left

And do you still work for amzon and what are you tips and tricks now ?

A HUGE time saver is getting assigned to a CDV. They are the ones with the large passenger sliding door you can leave open. Sure, it only takes a second to open a door, but when you don't have to, an you can just jump in an out an not deal with it, those seconds actually add up quite a bit!

This is all for the old folks like me that has hard time with the small print when I organize my overflow I'll look at the three numbers on the sticker and I have a big black magic marker that I marked the top of my boxes should I leave my seat to look for my overflow I'll be able to read the numbers on the top of the box makes it easier for me makes it quicker as well

Use sharpie to write house number and first letter off street big on label so easy to see and Group multiple packages for stop

the seat belt trick was awesome. thank you

The bag are easy to organize, what I struggle with it’s organizing overflows , so many boxes I can’t even walk

how do you go to the bathroom during the day?? DO you stop at a gas station?

You trying to finish your route as fast as possible, while amazon makes billions. You paid more in taxes than amazon did. I still love amazon but do not run your self crazy thinking amazon cares about you.

My first day and the gps was makings me get overwhelmed it kept bringing me in circle

I thought you got tricks. But it's your second week..... C mon mate!!

Yeah you can tell you’re new, number one you’re supposed to turn your van off 80% of your stops. Number two using your own phone is a horrible idea you notice your phone battery will die a lot faster than those Motorola phones and you know why your phone is laggy? Because you didn’t update your flex app when you started out the day. I’ve been doing this since October 2019, and this is sone pretty bad advice. What will make you move faster is making a routine that works best for you put your packages in order by the sticker number making it easier to find, and here’s a TIP for you on the way to your first stop have your work phone plugged in all the way to your first stop which will help keep your work phone from dying. The faster you go the faster your work phone dies why? Because you’re constantly using your phone.

I'm in my second week and they are already pressuring me cuz I've "been rescued every day" but i literally just finished my first week. Like, I don't get it . Why r they pressuring me and warning me like this ? I want to do well , but I feel like they are being rediculous. I just started .

crazy thing is i do sll of this and still feels like im slow and get anywhere from 158-171 stops i finish anytime from 7-8 i feel like im just a slow person 😢my size prolly doesn’t help (im petite 5’4 nd ,21)

When I finish early I go home with watever hours I worked like 6 or 7 how come u still get payed the full day?

Wtf we don’t get to leave early, if we finish early we need to go “rescue” someone and take 15-30 stops

We have to shut and lock car doors and turn the engine off at every stop

What dsp do you work for , I’m thinking of changing mine cuz they’re shitty? Thank you

I used the seatbelt thing today (Brissie Aus) and it worked a treat!

All you gotta do is separate all your boxes and envelopes and put them upfront and once you you drop off your current order look for your next items before going to your next stop unless it’s close but the only way to finish early is to hustle lol but I understand some people have issues

I just started it’s my second day I think my DSP pays you by the hour even if you finish early but I’m not entirely sure

Our dsp told us not to put packages in the front seat

That seatbelt hack is 🔥🔥 fire

In The USPS they have a cute Rule called The 701 Rule. If they catch you finishing early they count the whole Station and add an hour to your route! So listen up! Never do them any favors! Never suggest Anything at all! Slow The F*ck down! YOU HIRED ON TO HELP NOT DO IT ALL! You will not be promoted to Supervisor for doing a good job! Wake up

You can leave early & get paid for the day whole day. That’s sweet!

I do all of this except the seat belt tip. They don’t give me my full time hours and they keep putting me on standby for weird reasons

Lol the seatbelt part lol our DSP told us if they see us doing that you could get terminated right away . Also parking in a handicap spot lol and if you don't fill up with gas or leave your van dirt it also can lead up too a write up . My DSP dose not mess around

Bro I respect your tips. But rookie drivers always get easy routes. Once you become a 5 o clock driver your stops and pack amounts slowly creep up

In the uk it’s illegal to just leave your engine running. Health and safety is actually important due to if the vehicle moves due to the engine being on and then other mistakes happen like accelerator accidents

Which dsp you at? They hiring? All I get for finishing early is glorious rescues 😒 try timing up your last stop around your 9th hour for those who don’t get paid out for the whole day with an early finish. Get your own charger, I know most kits come with it but I know I can’t be the only one who gets cords/chargers that don’t work. It’s annoying to get your own but it’s a huge help. LEARN YOUR ROUTE. Probably the biggest tip. Once you’re familiar with it you’ll notice some areas/streets that it has you come back to multiple times throughout the day sometimes. Typically the areas that do this are always the same for me so when i finish a area I check my map view to check the surrounding areas and alot of the time there will be some stops near you that aren’t scheduled till later but I’ve been finishing whole areas first before moving to the next. Empty your tote and keep envelopes and bags up front with you, boxes in the back. Get your envelopes/bags first then boxes since boxes are typically easier to find so I do that last.

Tried leaving early I get hit with rescues. They pay by the hour with most DSP

Advice is to stay out for the full 12 hours so you get ot

It’s a bit annoying because sometimes I finish at 7 or 6 and if there is no rescues I kind of take a pay cut but they make me feel bad if I take my time so it’s like what’s the point

Mydsp does not pay for the whole day if you finish early not only that but we can't use our own phones it's a special app that's downloaded on their phones that you can't get with your phone

I love to drive, so why rush, take my times do the work until all the packages delivered. Then go home. If you're in this, it is going to be years, and years down the road.😅

Let it idle you'll save so much time left it's really hot and really cold you don't need to deal with it

Interesting tips. I’ve pretty much did what you described in the beginning, and as a result, I got released on my first day. It’s unfortunate.

I wish I worked with this guy on my team in LA.

That sounds like #1

I hang my key on my name tag lanyard so I don't have to dig in my pockets to find it.

Don’t use your personal phone. Keep it charged for emergency. Deliver your first stop then go airplane mode so you don’t lag and can change delivery point easy and fast. Go out of airplane mode every hour or so so it updates to dispatch, then go back in. Make sure you’re off before you get back

Don't use your phone because you breack your battery in the long run the app eats allot of energy and you have to charge it all the time

Finishing early just makes the amazon algorhythm think you need more work.

Thats why find seat belts snapped up on driver's side.

Seatbelt trick isn’t guaranteed with Driver-i

My First DAY I got send Down Town With all apartment stops with narrow streets so you cant double park. Trainer showed up 2hrs later for 30 min and left. Is this normal?

1 things 1 no seat belt it's better because you can jump faster from the car befour fully breacking 2 what did you say o yeah wait your Amazon prime for shore after the car your using im at a secondary helper we have smoler vens but the same amount of clients and no on my rout im loky to have 5 clients on 1 street I do around 8-12 viliges per day

16 “boxes” on my first day 160 stops 225 packages. Sorry but we don’t have someone for a ride along.

I do 320 parcels a day and 182 stops slave labour 😢

not true, my dsp only pays the hours that we work. so it def depends which dsp you work with.

I'm going to start using that seatbelt trick because I usually do 186 stops a day

Don't they count seatbelt clicks? Like if you have 120 stops they count 120 clicks. Idk maybe a myth to make sure we properly wear seatbelts lol

Bruh I had the shittest first day imaginable

He said jog

My dsp pays 1300 a week

Not jogging

“You can leave early if you finish early” “You can get paid for the full day” baby girl, that’s different for every dsp 😂😂😂 i was hourly and even when i finished early or on time i’d rescue atleast 1 person every single day. Was not fun. Edit: it sounds like you might be misinformed

Bro stop pacing you’re making me dizzy wtf lol

What’s the point of getting done early? It’s not like most DSP send you home. They always send you wanna rescue. At least on my DSP. That’s why there’s no point in finishing before 7 o’clock.

Our company dont pay you if your done early most of our team will rescue another driver for more time.

Put over flow i back along back door. Write last two number of the drivers aid on top and side. Easy to find that way…..

The quicker you get done the more they will pile on you the 'next day', no?

What DSP does he work for lol. Nothing ever works at Amazon.

0:27 it's a lie I work at amazon ges what I finished at 19 and I was sent rescue and I had to take anather 40 clients I worked till 21:30 than I went home and some mdf broke my window on the highway I had to wait even more in the end I ended up at 1:00 in the morning at home 190 stops 245 clients 300 colets every day no breack and work like creazy if I dare to finish befour 9 they send me Rescue I was rescue for 4 days now this weak I'm dead tired fisicle not mentaly and I hed 2 crashes because of been places on the run 16hours every day

You finish early you will be rescuing 😂

Van must be shut off. Keys out.

I go fast to get off before dark….every time get sent for rescues. Great advice but I believe you are wrong about scanning to door. That effects your metric bad

Best tip: Find another job.

Tips and tricks after 2 weeks…..???????

There is no such thing in my DSP. If you finish early, you will get less money and the next working day you will get more work, and if you finish early then you will get less money and more work...

Seat belt??? WRONG!!!

Can you sit still bro.... Lol

Him calling totes, boxes made me cringe

you wasted my 13 min brother the tips you gave a kid will also do that without any advice from any one because its common sense

These are the worse tips I’ve heard bruh, use your own phone? “ choose “ the push start van? The seatbelt one lmfao, you’re setting people up for failure brother, the package set up is what saves you time! None of this BS does

You’ve been driving two weeks😂 you don’t have any tips and tricks work a damn😂😂😂😂😂

Fake news

So, "Hey guys it's my second week working at Amazon delivery." (And you're already on here trying to give tips? Yeah, thanks I'll pass an look for someone that's been on the job for more than a year or so. THOSE are the kinds of guys you want tips from. Not a new person. lol. Wow.

You don’t get paid for the whole day!! I do this and get 7 hours a day!!
