In that case, why wait for the next day? Start Tuesdays work on Monday and ship a whole day early.

That does happen. Most long haul freight is done overnight so that there’s less traffic and the trucks can be more efficient with time.

Short to medium haul freight needs to get the finished product from the factory to the distribution centers for the long haul freight to pick it up.

Also, most production factories are 24/7 anyway. Usually you have 5-1, 1-9, and 9-5.
