The long distance routing problems are divided into three kinds of pure delivery systems where every order is allocated the same distribution strategy. Pure delivery systems have been generally, independently and widely studied. This research provides a solution to help pallet and package delivery companies in decision making, considering a mixed delivery system to improve the use of resources. It returns the route planning after allocating to each order the distribution strategy that best fits to the global scene and proves if a mixed delivery system achieves best results than a pure one and under which circumstances.
