              You’re on your way to making your deliveries,
              pickups and service calls! This is a good time to talk
              about how to respect your customers’ homes once
              you arrive.

              First, always remember that you cannot go inside
              a customer’s home unless someone 18 or over is
              present and allows you to come in.

              Be culturally, socially, and religiously sensitive. Show
              courtesy to your customers by not disturbing prayer
              areas, discussing religious relics—positively or
              negatively—or dishonoring any religious beliefs.
                                                                    Always use furniture pads and dollies to avoid any
              Ask your customer where the merchandise will be       injuries to you, the customer and the merchandise, and
              placed. Then, measure doors, hallways and the final   pay attention to any streaks that the dolly wheels may
              spot for the merchandise before moving anything       leave behind. Using furniture pads will protect your
              into or out of the customer’s home. This will prevent  customer’s floors and doorways. Ask your
              unnecessary damage to the merchandise and the         learning coach to show you how useful
              customer’s home.                                      rubber bands can be when you're using
                                                                    furniture pads!
