Schneider Dollar Tree. Seattle or Portland

Thank you, love this forum

 

You don't want this with a 10 foot pole. Two or three of 6 I know if have been robbed several times, one store just dumps the entire trailer into a pile 8 foot high in the rear of the dock and digs into it to shelve the survivors for sale. The broken go into the dumpster.

You are backing across a 40+ mph divided blind side to get into one past a overflowing parking lot with cars forcing themselves in and out around you.

So on so forth etc.

If the Dollar Tree was such a huge gold nugget experience overflowing with money more than any driver can stand to spend as the day is long why is there never anyone wise enough to volunteer for the account? The recruiters almost have to go dig out the ones who either never heard of it or do not know enough to stay the hell away from such a place.

 

Replying to a two-year-old post? Hmm
Schneider and the Dollar tree accounts. Lmao
Run like hell!
Unless you enjoy working like a migrant farm worker, problems trying to back in off of a busy highway. It's probably not for you but on the plus side you could probably buy crack off of somebody in the parking lot those Dollar trees are always in the best neighborhoods.

 

Not necessarily.

Dollar stores were relatively rare in the 70's because many options existed all over the place ranging from say a ben franklins to woolworths and 5 and dimes and so on all the way up to the high dollar department stores that were the places you went to be seen and see while shopping.

When the downtowns went away into the 80's as china and other sources started producing what we consume relatively cheaply, before walmart sprouted everywhere we had malls. They were the downtown killers. Eventually the internet like Amazon etc killed the malls. Most of them anyway.

Dollar stores started opening shops in deperessed run down areas vacated by bigger stores as unprofitable. Then two, then 4 and so on. We are standing at approximately 20K dollar type shops here in the USA with about 30K total pending consturction and opening as soon they get completed in the future. most all of which are in areas that otherwise have no hope of opening a store of any kind. Because the people living around it do not have money. It's easier to go to the one across town and buy a nice bag of generic chips for a dollar that serves just as well as does a 4 dollar bag of scopps party chips in walmart. Guess who gets the sale. The dollar store.

I happen to purchase my chips online, via UTZ but once or twice a year. When shipping is free. It comes out to around 12 pounds a year total in bulk that arrives at the house in three pound boxes. Once in a while a manager will experiment with a few utz chips in the store shelf and it's gone by end of day. Sold out at any price. But there is no profit to the store from where we are as far as we are from Hanover unless you accept a rise in pricing per bag of the stuff. Boom easier and cheaper to order from home. Don't need a whole store to sell me potatochips anymore. as far as the chips themselves you could not be easier. A dallop of snowden taters, a vat of oil and perhaps MAYBE a dash of salt. Maybe. And that's literally all she wrote. Here is your bag of chips Sir.

 

Thats not really true , True Dollar stores like Dollar Tree, not Dollar General, or Family Dollar which really arent dollar stores, are in all sorts of areas. They are primarily in retail shopping centers

 

As I mentioned earlier in this thread, I did it for four years. Most of the stores you deliver to out of the Ridgefield, WA location are in regular blue collar areas. I never felt unsafe sleeping behind a store.

A few have difficult backing situations, but most don't.
