If they don’t have a time allowance, I ALWAYS do them at night. Faster, no need to ask them to turn on canopy lights, and way less traffic. I can get 2X-3X more shops done past 9 PM.

Any language barriers on these shops--do you have to interact with the behind-the-counter folks?

Just did my 1st Mobil last night in about a year. Took 45 minutes on site. Yes, I just took a ton of pictures to CMA as the station was fully compliant. It did only have 4 pumps. I only took as it paid $100 and was 30-minute drive for me. If I do anymore now, I know what to do again and will get that down to 30 minutes on site. Report takes 20 to 30 minutes to label pictures on computer and enter. $40 local is my minimum rate and more for distance of course.

Hey Buffalo,
I know you do or did shops near my neck of the woods. I accepted a $100 shop along the Canadian boarder, built a route around it and got it cancelled the day before. Be wary. Just a heads up.
I had done the shop previously for $100 and thought, let's do it again as it made financial sense. But the route screwed me when they canceled this anchor shop.
The scheduler who sometimes posts on this board asked me to do another distant shop and I declined stating I had a shop pulled from me and she said she would never do that.
YMMV.
