We cover 13 counties in southwestern Pennsylvania, and traveling to 3 or 4 counties per day on average adds up to 175-200 miles a day.  Figuring roughly 90 minutes per 100 miles traveled, that translates to just shy of three-and-a-half hours a day behind the wheel.  If I start out from my house at 7:00 AM to be in my first courthouse by 8:00 or 8:30, that means I only have five-and-a-half to six hours left to actually do searches.  Lunch?  Forget lunch.  Lunch is for wimps. LOL.

I've found that my biggest expense is gasoline...parking really isn't a major issue because our territory doesn't include a major metro area (we don't cover Allegheny county for this very reason...the City of Pittsburgh has a 50% parking tax, the highest of any major US city).  I do travel the PA turnpike, and the tolls can add up fairly quickly.  That's all built into our cost structure, though.

The only time I charge extra for a "rush" order is when I fax something from the courthouse, for cost plus our usual markup, of course.

Hope this answers your questions.

Regards,
Scott Perry
