Case Study: Boy Scouts of America achieves expanded mulch fundraiser and optimized deliveries with MyRouteOnline

Route Planning Helps Boy Scouts Expand Fundraising

Troop 674, a Boy Scout unit in Montgomery, Ohio, runs an annual mulch fundraiser serving nearby communities but must deliver all orders in a single day. Manual route planning and Google Maps directions consumed days of work and forced the troop to stop taking sales five days before delivery, limiting revenue and growth.

By switching to MyRouteOnline, the troop’s logistics coordinator uploads orders by CSV, creates optimized, driver-specific routes, and prints turn-by-turn directions—enabling last-minute sales and faster planning. The change allowed four trucks to deliver over 3,000 bags to more than 120 addresses from 200+ orders, expanding the fundraiser and increasing funds that fully support the troop’s activities and equipment for 50+ scouts.
