How to Add Timeslots to Your Favourite Stops in Zeo Route Planner

Reading Time: 4 minutes

Updated on: May 18, 2025

Some delivery stops aren’t flexible. They expect you to show up at a specific time, not earlier, not later. And if you visit the same location every day, it becomes a routine headache. Re-entering the address, remembering the time window, and optimizing the same route daily. It’s repetitive and easy to mess up.

Zeo Route Planner simplifies all of that with a feature designed for drivers who value precision and efficiency. Adding timeslot scheduling to your favourite stops. You can save frequently visited stops, assign preferred delivery time windows, and let Zeo do the rest. Every time you build a route, Zeo automatically takes that timeslot into account and optimizes the route to match your timeslot.

It’s smart, quick, and designed to take small tasks off your plate, so you can stay focused on the road.

Let’s walk you through how it works.

Why Favourite Stops with Timeslot Scheduling Matter

When you’re delivering to the same warehouse, retail store, or office multiple times a week, entering the same address details and remembering its delivery window is not efficient. These are your regular stops, the ones that follow strict time slots, expect prompt service, and don’t have room for delays.

That’s exactly why Favourite Stops with Timeslot Scheduling in Zeo Route Planner is a feature worth using. It keeps your routes optimized, your deliveries on schedule, and your day a whole lot efficient.

Here’s how this feature helps in your day-to-day:

  • Saves time during route creation by eliminating repetitive address entry.
  • Reduces the risk of missed time windows, which could lead to failed deliveries.
  • Improves route accuracy by planning around time-based constraints.
  • Minimizes confusion and back-and-forth calls between drivers and customers.

How Zeo Uses That Timeslot for Route Optimization

Once you’ve added a timeslot to your favourite stop, Zeo Route Planner uses it as a fixed rule during route optimization. The system doesn’t treat it like a casual note, it actively builds your route around that delivery time window.

Zeo makes sure you’re arriving exactly when you’re supposed to, within the defined timeframe. No early arrivals that leave you waiting. No late stops that upset the client. It’s smart, structured planning that keeps your route on track and your deliveries running smoothly.

Here’s how it works:

  • The route optimization engine treats timeslots as constraints.
  • It plans other stops around them so you arrive exactly when needed.
  • You’ll always get ETAs that align with delivery time expectations.

With timeslot scheduling built right into your favourite stops, Zeo Route Planner helps you stay sharp and on time, without second-guessing your schedule. Every stop is timed to match real-world constraints, so you can focus on the road, not on juggling delivery windows.

You avoid missed time slots, unnecessary delays, and follow-ups. Just reliable, on-time service that makes you look professional and keeps your day running like clockwork.

Zeo Understands the Small Stuff That Matters

Most route planners just focus on getting you from one stop to the next. Zeo Route Planner does more than that. It learns how you work, your repeat stops, your time-sensitive deliveries, and the daily grind that most apps ignore.

When you save a favourite stop with a specific time window, Zeo remembers it every time. No more punching in the same information over and over. No more risking a missed window because your route didn’t account for the time window.

Add your favourite stops, lock in your delivery windows, and let Zeo do the rest. Want to see how this feature makes a big difference? Schedule a free demo and get a feel for smarter route planning, built for drivers like you.
