Weekly performance bonus
Hit your delivery targets and you earn more on top, depending on how many routes you run that week:
- 3 routes: £15
- 4 routes: £25
- 5 routes: £30
- 6 routes: £40
Top Performer bonus, 30 August to 26 December 2026
On top of the weekly performance bonus, we run a Top Performer bonus. Every week in this period, the best performing driver at Exeter gets a full tank of fuel for the following week, on us. That is 17 weeks of it. It goes on delivery performance, so you are in the running from your first week.
What you could earn
Two examples. All of them are before mileage, which is paid on top, and before your own running costs.
Own van, 6 routes at the top rate of £200
- Routes: 6 x £200 = £1,200
- Performance bonus: £40
- Your week: £1,240, plus mileage
Rented van, 6 routes at the top rate of £200
- Routes: 6 x £200 = £1,200
- Performance bonus: £40
- Less van rental: £110
- Your week: £1,130, plus mileage
These are examples, not guarantees. What you earn comes down to how many routes you run, which van you drive, your mileage, your VAT status and your own running costs.
