Safe habits. Secure deliveries.

A commitment to safety becomes meaningful through everyday habits. Prepare for the route, give driving your full attention, and respond to the conditions you encounter. A familiar street can still bring pedestrians, changing traffic, or an unexpected obstruction. Use the guidance provided for your role and communicate when conditions affect the assignment.

• Review route information and delivery instructions before setting out.
• Handle messages, scanning, and navigation changes while safely parked.
• Raise concerns about conditions that prevent a safe delivery.

Vehicle readiness connects the driver, fleet support, and operations. Follow the inspection and documentation procedures for your assigned equipment, and report defects or unfamiliar warning indications through the established process. Explain what you observed so the appropriate team can determine the next step. Preparation also includes organizing packages and understanding the equipment you will use.

Safety knowledge should develop alongside practical experience. Use onboarding and role-specific instruction to understand vehicle controls, package handling, delivery procedures, and reporting expectations. Ask questions when an assignment differs from what you have been shown. Sharing lessons from the route helps the team identify where additional guidance or practice would be useful.

Secure delivery depends on careful handling and accurate information. Confirm the address, follow authorized placement or handoff instructions, and complete the required delivery or exception record. Use the assigned scanning and delivery tools to record what actually happened. If a package is damaged, the destination is unclear, or access is restricted, follow the reporting process rather than guessing.

• Confirm the intended address and authorized receiving location.
• Keep package and customer information within approved work channels.
• Document unresolved issues so the team can follow through.

Navigation, scanning, and delivery records can help organize the work and communicate its status. Their value depends on accurate use and appropriate timing. Learn the tools assigned to your role, review information while safely parked, and report errors or gaps through the designated support channel. Technology supports the driver’s judgment and attention to the surroundings.

A blocked walkway, unfamiliar handling task, vehicle issue, or changing access condition deserves attention before it becomes a larger problem. Describe the specific concern, use the team’s reporting process, and ask for guidance when the next step is unclear. For an incident or immediate danger, follow the established incident procedure and contact the appropriate emergency services.

A safety culture depends on participation from drivers, dispatch, fleet support, and operations. Share recurring problems and useful observations, listen to feedback, and follow up on unresolved concerns. Clear communication helps turn individual experience into better preparation for the next route. For AVP assignments, confirm the readiness checks and responsibilities that apply to your personal vehicle.
