Look at the attached example of a trip to Home Depot for some random items. As you can see, I got a text from the contractor when they showed up at Home Depot at 8:28 AM.  Then, as they were in line at the Pro Desk to check out at 9:15 AM, I got a call from Home Depot to make payment at 9:46 AM. This DID NOT include drive time. 

THAT'S 1 HOUR & 18 MINUTES of unproductive time. 47 minutes are spent getting items and 31 minutes are spent at the Pro Desk!!! 

You will notice that this particular trip took almost as long as the estimation I made above that had driven time included. The contractor told me the whole trip took 2 HOURS, meaning the commute time was 42 minutes total, or 21 minutes each way. 

Our Home Depot Order Process and Lists will eliminate much of this wasted time.
