Delivery day
A delivery day is a weekday on which a business delivers to a particular zone, so that customers in that area receive orders on a predictable day each week.
Last updated By Porch Route
Fixed delivery days are how farms and CSAs keep routes worth driving: one day per zone, staggered across the week, the same all season. A customer who knows “my box comes Thursday” needs fewer messages and plans the cooler.
In Porch Route each zone carries its delivery days, and orders for a day are built into routes across the vehicles available that day. Customers see the day on their scheduled notice and tracking page.
