- Sarah M., Current Rural Carrier

2. Load the Vehicle: Pack your personal right-hand-drive vehicle (or provided LLV) to the brim with packages and mail, maximizing space for your expansive route.
3. Hit the Open Road: Navigate country roads, agricultural zones, and winding paths, delivering directly to curbside boxes and selling stamps to remote customers.
