Where do you draw the line ?

[Dave Martin]

Just done a delivery and it entailed carrying 6 Barrow bags up about 20 steps. I am new to this and hope to employ a delivery driver but want to see what they will encounter myself first. Luckily I had help with me today but would you do this at no extra cost or rather do you? The customer looked a bit nervous when showing me where he would like them but I just grinned and told him to go inside out of the rain whilst we did it.

i charge extra to put the wood away as it takes time. sounds like you had a bit of a task.

[Chris Gagen]

depends how good looking the customer is...

He was quite a nice looking lad but I`m just not that way inclined

Does the milkman put your bottles of milk in your fridge, does the postman open your letters & read the contents to you?, i think people look on log merchants the same way as they did the coalman, putting the coal in their bunkers for them. Trouble is , if this guy is going to be a regular you have to tell him it will be extra to lug the bags upstairs, or next load sell him a load of green willow to get rid of him.

Funnily enough I was recommended to him by a coal merchant.

seriously though, he should've got a quick cuppa on the go for you while you did the donkey work for him!

Tipped on the drive at no extra cost, possibly even at the bottom of the steps

i ask when they make an enquiry, about location, parking, obstacles etc if they mention steps then i will only deliver small bags that i can carry. if they want them stacked beside their fire 6 flights up then i will do this, for a price.
