C&D in the parcel world means Carry and Deliver. Carry it to the tailboard and then carry it to the delivery point.
What about the ‘collections’.Collect and Deliver. 
No doubt Switch would ask to be exempted from having to do any collections and they would probably agree just for him.Then he’d say nah changed my mind I’m only doing trunking but no nights so the Paris run will do. 
This fantasy life you’ve created for me is quite entertaining and hilariously fictional. Hilarious because of all the people online I put more about my working life online than almost any driver but you still feel need to make it up. I suppose with your stunted disappointing career you’ve had to live through others and making it up sort of gives you a buzz, like you sort of did it. Maybe.
You’ve not actually done parcels in a van have you? 60/70/80 drops? I have. And I told you about it previously so quit making up lies.
My experience of ‘C and D’ work was being told by the agency to report to Independent Express Heathrow depot for a class 1 trunk run.I thought day trunking was weird but who am I to argue what do I know.
When I got there I was told the 7.5 tonner is in the warehouse and most of the load is on the warehouse floor.
I said it must be a mistake I’m here to do a class 1 trunk.
The guvnor said no it’s 7.5 t London multi drop.
The fact that most of the load got left behind in the warehouse I did 8 drops and brought what was left back and laughed at the idea of any collections shows who the yes man is here.
Even with the clue it’s strange that you still didn’t refer to doing any collections after your ‘80’ drops.So that night’s outward trunk would have been a bit light just like mine would have been.

So that’s a no then.

Want to know what I had for lunch too? Collections arent ‘after’ on vans, it’s worked into your day. You’d know this if you actually had some experience. Drops is a catch all term
Carryfast:

Yup, it’s still you. Crippled because you did what they asked so much. I’m not

Yeah right a 7.5 tonner loaded floor to ceiling front to back and you’re going to do 20 collections after you’ve done the first 2 drops.
Collections are deffo called collections and drops are called drops and you obviously don’t know the difference.
No I was crippled by something very irregular in a union agreeing to retrograde and ultimately harmful terms on my behalf.
I knew all about C and D work because without the C and D drivers doing what they do I wouldn’t have had a night trunk load to carry.
It’s also why I zb on the agency and their lying client after they’d zb on me once too often.Unfortunately for them in knowing the job I knew exactly what they were trying to stitch me up with and ironically even after that it was still me who sacked them not vice versa.
I’ve got serious doubts that Carryfast has driven anything other than a garbage truck, if even that.
He has an active imagination, with which he can weave a novel, based purely on a short sentence.
He lacks the basic knowledge of how the industry works, but promotes a fantasy whereby he should have driven totally unsuitable configurations and combinations, with absolutely no interaction with the freight.
We all have dreams, but most of us live in the real world.

You said you drove the 7.5t once and did 8 drops and gave up? You’ve always struggled to do the job haven’t you. Suppose being in your sixties with a drastically short working life was inevitable.
My parcel van experience (not 7.5, van, that’s why I used van, not 7.5t in my post. Bit of a clue) is clearly much more extensive and obviously more recent than your single half day on a 7.5t getting on for a quarter of a century ago
Carryfast:

If you had experience of it you’d understand what I was saying. But you don’t, so you don’t. I also didn’t say 7.5t, I said van. Better luck next time my work shy friend

So you also think that drops are combined with collections and are also called drops and you say I don’t know how the industry works.
So tell us how are you going to get most/all of the collections on a truck that’s still full of all/most of the bleedin drops.
How did I get through over 12 of my almost 15 years of night trunking with no interaction with loads only trailer and box swaps.
Hand balling loads and silly amounts of multi drop work you know like 6 drops per hour is for mugs who are thick in the arm and thick in the head you sound like a Yorkshireman in that regard.

You’re you’re own worst enemy chap. Most of us on here don’t ‘think’ when it comes to transport, we know, as we aren’t almost 3 decades distant from our careers. It’s clear here you’ve never done parcel work in a van and as usual are just a flailing around know it all. You’re talking about it in Truck terms, it doesn’t work like palletised Truck work. Was gonna say amazingly clueless for a man who spent 15 years at one of worlds biggest parcel companies but frankly nothing is impossible where you’re concerned
You look good in drag Geoffrey.

I rest my case, you’ve never done the job.
If you can’t work out how to do it, in your own backyard, why would you expect any employer to trust you going to a foreign country?
I don’t know how you aquired this hallucination that Lukes face fitted. I mean, look at the fellow, he fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down!

You’re the one who agrees with Switchlogic that C and D means that drops are the same thing as collections and all the collections can be done simultaneously with all the drops.
Then you say that the NZ type drawbar outfits which I’m advocating are totally unsuitable here while Switchlogic is advocating artic A double outfits.
The cap seems to fit you far better.

Now who’s weaving fairytales (no pun intended)? Can you confirm Carryfast’s not gay?

You’re the one saying that’s how it is done not me.
So you tell us how you’re going to get all those collections on a truck that’s still loaded with all the drops.
Also why would you want to make the customers wait for their deliveries in the morning while you run around trying to collect stuff that isn’t ready for collection until later in the day.
You’re also the one who’s having a go at me for advocating rigid and trailer outfits, you know just like the ones that I drove but with a proper trailer allowed to be coupled to them, and which contrary to switch’s bs form the backbone of the Scandinavian and NZ transport industries.
The fact that switchlogic was given international line haul work on a plate while my back was wrecked by being used as a warehouse labourer had nothing to do with trusting someone who’s claim to fame is crashing things in a big way.
Ironically if he’d have actually worked for UPS he would have been sacked because putting a truck off the road didn’t count as three avoidables in a year and you’re out.The first would have been the last.

No you’re just showing your ignorance of the fact that pallets formed a large part of many/most ‘parcels’ carriers’ work including both Seabourne and Carryfast.You know the two operations that UPS bought to form its UK operation.
As for collections simultaneous with deliveries what difference does it make whether it’s all loose loaded or all pallets or a mixture of both when you try to do collections with a truck that’s still loaded with drops.Or when customers are shouting for their deliveries in the morning while you run around trying to do the collections which aren’t ready until late afternoon.
But then you didn’t know what C and D meant which says it all about what you actually know.Which is the square root of zb all.
It’s gone way off topic and Carryfast is involved in the thick of it, so it’s been moved to Bully’s.
Edit to add pallets generally went on a 16 tonner not 7.5 tonners as day bulk C and D work I should know because I did it for while both on agency and Carryfast.But then you didn’t know what bulk work means either.
