Postcode maps

[Tim 77]

Does anybody know where I can get some free print offs of postcode maps? I want to be able to plan my working day in areas I'm not familar with at a glance, I normally try and go to the furthest job away first and work my way back towards home. My jobs are normally all within the same area on each day.
Cheers, Tim.

dont know about free, but a good staioners will sell you a map. I once got one, but its only by county (mind you was 20+ years ago)

clicky

If you look in the back of a relevant A-Z it shows the areas covered by the maps plus surrounding areas.

You can also get "Route Planning Software" which calculates the shortest way to get round multiple points. Not something I'm really interested in so I don't know if there's a good free one.

The "Travelling Salesman Problem" used to be a popular exercise.

Finding people in at the time you are in the area is the hard bit, plus, how do you know you won't hit a big snag on the first call and be delayed for hours?
