Case Study: Large Service Company subcontractor Andrew J. Olson streamlines multi-state routing and saves time with Route4Me

Solo Subcontractor Works Across USA with Route4Me

Large Service Company’s subcontractor, Andrew J. Olson of Dallas, Texas, services carpet‑cutting machines across a multi‑state territory (South Texas to North Dakota) and averages about 50 stops on trips lasting 2–4 weeks. Because he’s paid per stop and not reimbursed for mileage or expenses, route planning efficiency is critical — previously he plotted routes manually in Microsoft Streets & Trips, a process that took hours. To address this, Andrew turned to Route4Me’s route‑planning web and mobile tools.

Route4Me lets Andrew quickly enter addresses, generate optimized multi‑stop routes, email/print maps, and adjust routes on the road, replacing hours of manual mapping with fast, actionable directions. As a result, he can reliably cover ~50 stops per trip, stay on schedule for recurring six‑month client visits, focus on repairs rather than navigation, and even teach his son on the job — demonstrating tangible time savings and operational efficiency delivered by Route4Me.
