When Solo, How Many 3 crate Pick-Ups Can You Do In An Hour?

[rlk232]

My average number of 3 crate pick ups per hour is about 6.5, approx 19 crates. This yields a nice profit, how about you?

Depends on how many vehicular deliveries you get which is completely random.

Try to come up with an average... I hit approx 20 in 3 hours, thus, 6.5 is the mean for that (6.67 technically).

I just started doing the same warehouse, how many vehicular missions you do is important, once i did 4 vehicular in a row

I always do three crates.
The time it takes to do a pickup of all three differs, based on whether the truck contains all three or if I have to go back and forth to collect all three.

But, on average so far, I'll devote about an hour to crate collections, then I'll do one sell-off shipment, maybe 3-6 crates.

I think, though, now I'm just going to collect and forget the selling part until I have a full warehouse.

Hope this answered the question.

Here's my method, hope you like it: Two warehouses, one L and one M; always buy 3 crates at a time. I try to fill one warehouse up to 25 before selling, so you get 16k a pop. During the cooldowns, do the delivery to the other warehouse.. Basically I constantly get one to 25-27, then empty it, and then the other warehouse has like 12-15, and I repeat that process. You get to constantly sell and never be empty, and it should turn a nice profit.

It takes me about 10-12 minutes to collect all 3 crates unless it's one shipment but that doesn't happen often & I get around 20 crates an hour. Anyone know if 3 crates at $18,000 are worth more then 3 separate crates at $2,000 or $6,000 for all three. Just wondering as if their is no sale price difference then single crate pickups would be far better reward wise although it would take slightly longer to fill a warehouse.

I'd agree with a rough average of 6-7. It'll get quicker though, as I've already started doing some of them how I want to, and not the way they were intended.

 

For example, if it's a van or truck in an alleyway then I'll blow up any trucks parked at the exit, as it's probably a trap. If I have to kill someone before I get the cargo then I'll usually be able to tell where the targets are from looking at the vantage point location. As soon as you do anything violent in their vicinity they all appear on the radar. Also, picking up cargo that was on the boat, without getting out of my Buzzard or Hydra.

 

Stuff like that.

They have the same selling price, so yeah more money but takes a lot longer.

OK thanks Furry Monkey, Guess I might switch to one crate pickups then given I usually have to make 3 trips anyway as a solo player & with $4,000 per crate difference then buying 3 means I'm taking a huge hit in profits even with the time difference.

Yesterday I played for 4 hours and gathered 42 crates in total.. I always do a VIP-mission in between to finance my shipments and when needed a 3K buzzard... So overal I don't lose money, I just pay by working in between (sightseeer, headhunter , cargo haul or Bob--action, ehhe)...

 

I fill one large warehouse... No intermittent with my small warehouse (I use that for special items and keep it below a certain treshold, so it's not likely to get attacked by npc's)...
