The 10-Minute Rule
Weekly+ visits: stay <10 min. Monthly: 15–20 min for savings is fine. Daily business runs: <8 min from shop. Map home → work → unit; avoid crossing town (e.g., Republic to Glenstone/I-44 daily).
Convenience Beyond Miles
- Easy turns for trucks/trailers, ground-floor doors, carts/elevators, extended gates matching your hours.
- Price the triangle: $20/mo savings loses to $40 in fuel + time if far. Compare on units near you.
FAQs
Near home or work?
Whichever you pass more. Movers: near new home. Businesses: near shop.

$10–$20/mo yes if it doubles visits efficiency and prevents second trips.
