Pickup Runs

A listing's score assumes each pickup is a dedicated trip from home. But once you're already driving somewhere, other items near that route get much cheaper to grab — the extra driving for a second stop is a fraction of a whole trip. Pickup Runs capture that.

Anchoring a run

Start a run anchored on either a listing you're picking up or a location you type in. The easiest way: on a listing you're grabbing, click Going to pick up, then Start a pickup run — it pre-anchors the run on that item.

Adding stops

The run shows nearby listings — both resale opportunities and wants — sorted by distance from your anchor, with an optional exact-miles radius filter. Add the ones worth grabbing on the same trip. Items we can't map precisely are grouped as "same region — distance unknown."

Travel-adjusted profit

Each stop shows a trip-adjusted profit-per-hour — the marginal detour to add it, not a fresh dedicated trip. Run-level totals show the real shared loop (combined profit, total drive, run profit-per-hour), counting the shared driving once.

Important: this only adjusts travel. It never changes an item's resale value, condition, or the work to clean/repair/sell it — a broken item near your route is still broken. And it's computed live for the run view only; your real scores and calibration stay untouched.

Committed pickups are protected

Marking something "Going to pick up" moves it out of the opportunities dashboard and into your Flip Tracker, and freezes it from the freshness re-check — so a pickup you've committed to can't be auto-flagged sold or removed out from under you.
