The problem of determining the sequence of stops and the amount of load to carry in each segment route, named the Multi-Stop Routing Problem (MSRP) is addressed. A 0/1 mixed integer linear program and formulation refinements which facilitate the solution process are presented. Since the constraint set of the MSRP includes 0/1 mixed rows, valid inequalities for this type of regions are presented. Then these results are applied to the constraint set of the routing problem, presenting additional valid inequalities. In addition, polynomial separation algorithms associated with the valid inequalities are given, computational results are also included.
