The system uses this method to calculate delivery fees for vendors
miles x (4) = total travel mileage
Total mileage traveled x $1.50 a mile = the delivery fee
The delivery fee is to be no lower than $45
Example1:
The client is 10 miles away
The first trip to drop off is (10 miles)
Return back to the warehouse is (10 miles)
Go back to the client to pick up is (10 miles)
Return back to the warehouse is (10 miles)
This delivery in total adds up to (40 miles)
40 miles x $1.50 a mile = $60
So the delivery fee will be no less than a minimum of $45 in total
Example2:
The client is 24 miles away
The first trip to drop off is (24 miles)
Return back to the warehouse is (24 miles)
Go back to the client to pick up is (24 miles)
Return back to the warehouse is (24 miles)
This delivery in total adds up to (96 miles)
96 miles x $1.50 a mile = $144
So the delivery fee will be $96 which is greater than the minimum $35 delivery fee due to more mileage
