Why does nobody talk about using a bullet journal for house cleaning routes?

Last month, I was mapping my weekly cleaning jobs in my journal and drew a simple map of my town. I wrote each client's address and the order I should visit them to cut my drive time. It saved me about 45 minutes of driving every week, which is huge for my small business. Has anyone else used their bujo to plan something physical like a route, not just tasks?

Has anyone tried mapping out errands to group them by store aisle? I got tired of looping back for things I forgot, so I drew a basic store layout in my journal. Now my grocery list follows the exact path I walk, milk first then bread. It sounds small but it cuts my shopping time in half and I never miss the stuff at the back.

My local store rearranges their aisles every three months to keep people browsing. Your perfect list would be useless by summer. I tried something similar last year and ended up walking in circles because they moved the cereal. The mental effort to keep that map updated is more work than just glancing down each aisle. Sometimes the fastest route is just going in and getting it done.
