The built-in logic in the state-of-the-art software’s on the market can tackle some of the most difficult tasks in vehicle routing from single depot (a warehouse) to geographically dispersed routing scenarios.
Also, each vehicle has start location as well as an optional finish location so that all its stops can be fitted into the best possible route. In short, the software examines your stops and vehicles, decides which is the best possible scenario, then assigns route to each vehicle based on several factors like quickest route, average speed of vehicle, load capacity, weight, max. stops, etc. Every route is optimized for minimized time. Pretty cool stuff!
Invest in a good route optimizer software and save yourself on money and nerve cells!
