Below are our best practices on how to submit proper POD pictures for Jitsu.
At each delivery stop, drivers are asked to submit a Proof of Delivery (POD) photo to indicate a successful delivery. Below are our best practices on how to submit proper POD pictures:
- Double-check instructions. Unless otherwise instructed, all packages should be delivered to the customer’s front door (in multi-unit buildings, this should be the unit door, not the main front door). Please do not leave the packages outside a gate, in or on top of a mailbox, or in the mailroom/lobby. If there is a unit number on the address, deliver the package to the unit number. If you have access issues, please contact Dispatch for assistance.
- Capture relevant information. Proper PODs should contain the front doorway, the package itself, the house/unit number, and the address.
- Submit multiple pictures. If you are unable to get both the package and address into one picture, submit multiple pictures.
- Use lighting if necessary. If there isn't enough light, make sure your camera's flash is enabled.
- Handing off to customers. If packages are handed directly to the customer, take a photo of the address/door where you handed off the package - include a note in the drop-off that the package was handed to the customer.
- Save POD pictures when offline. If you do not have internet access and cannot submit POD pictures via the app, take pictures and save to your phone. You can also submit this to Dispatch to ensure you were at the stop for a successful delivery.
