Delivery timeline

Arrival times = real driving times (OSRM) × 1.4 traffic allowance + ~5 min/stop unloading. A later start eases traffic; slow drop-offs push everything later.

Van loading list

Load in reverse of the delivery order — last drop goes in first (deep by the cab), first drop last (by the doors) so each school is nearest the doors when you reach it.

Man-and-van — quote comparison

Hourly · £50/hr
Est. 4–4.5 hrs incl. loading → £200–£225 (up to £250 if it runs to 5 hrs). Break-even vs the flat quote is 4.8 hrs.
Flat · £240
£240 for the whole job — fixed, no overrun risk.
The trade-off
Hourly is likely ~£30–40 cheaper if it runs to plan, but school drop-offs can wait at reception. £240 flat buys certainty. Fast unloading favours hourly; slow drops favour the flat rate.
