If you are made to wait at either the pick-up or drop off location while making a delivery with Sherpa, you will be reimbursed for this time. Wait time fees are calculated differently for single deliveries and runs. Here is a quick breakdown of how these are calculated based on both situations:
You will be paid $3.00 (including GST) per 5 minutes you have to wait, after the initial first 10 minutes of waiting at either the pick-up or the delivery point.
Runs
If you have to wait at the pick-up location, you will be paid for the first 10 minutes for the first delivery, and 1 minute for every other delivery in the run.
Where wait time applies to a delivery, wait time fees will automatically be applied within 48hrs of that delivery being completed.
Important: Our auto-calculations rely on your phone GPS services being on, and you staying in the same location while waiting. If you move away from the pickup address, wait time fees won’t apply.
