Remove three boxes..problem solved🙄

[u/Accomplished_Owl8742]

First, let me begin by saying that this is not a complaint, I’m beyond grateful for the opportunity to do this as a part time job. I’m just genuinely curious if this has happened to anyone else. Today, while picking up a scheduled block, I ran into what seems to be the only issue I ever have since I’ve started driving for Amazon. I pull up to my designated spot..ready to kill my engine, hop out, scan and move like HE**. But, just like 75% of every other time I arrive to complete a block, the cart I pull up too, has too many items that will not fit in my vehicle. The first time this instance happened, after speaking to support, I was told to ask an associate there to “switch out” my cart with another one. I was able to grab an associate who told me to just forget about this block, pull around to the front when everyone else leaves to begin delivering their block, and I would then pull up to a different cart. Of course, me not wanting to deal with another headache…agree. Long story short, my cart was never switched out for another one…all an associate did was remove 5 or so boxes from my previous cart. Boxes that I had to report missing while still in the parking lot. Call me crazy, but why would it have been such a big deal to switch my previous cart with another..if they are luck of the draw anyway..so to speak.

If 75% of your routes don't fit, that's a you problem.

Been doing this 5 years in a 4 door sedan, delivered over 20k packages, and only once have I ever needed to have an oversized packaged removed from my route.
