Solution
Tammy -- "Anyone know which form to fill out to request a usps vehicle be provided to your route due to changes the Post office has made?
-- Sorry to say, there is no official form to request a usps vehicle.
-- You could try a memo, but don't be surprised if manglement accepts it and tosses it in the wastebasket as you return to your case.
" I asked management and got crickets."
-- On the plus side, getting crickets is probably better that having manglement say: "We'll get right on that for you!"
-- What changes are you referring to?

Tammy -- "New daily pickups and also I have been told that our zip code that lost amazon to ups 3 years ago might be getting it back. Not included in last couple of counts either."
-- IF you have an AUX route, might be in line for the Mercedes Metris van.
-- Otherwise might need to start looking for a larger POV to handle the possible return of Amazon.
-- Having Amazon show up AFTER a count is par for the course in the world of USPS.
-- Your best ( and probably only ) defense when manglement comes calling that you are not making your eval time -- especially if Amazon returns, is to get out the latest 4241 Form ( Rural Delivery Statistics Report ) and show manglement what the route got for parcels during the mail count and what the route is getting getting once Amazon returns. But don't count on any sympathy or understanding from manglement.

Sorry, but there is no way to request a Postal vehicle. If the “daily pickups” are putting you over your daily evaluation & was not part of your last mail count, it is possible for mgmt to add time to the route. If the pickups are every day, they can “build it onto the route”.
