It all depends ... so far you haven't mentioned anything to do with
maps, so it might well be against the terms.
Google is not the only geocoder.

Need to read all of the terms, example -
[Thou shalt not ...]
10.9 use the Service or Content with any products, systems, or
applications for or in connection with:
...
(c) dispatch ...

It might be something they can buy.  Then you can easily query a
private dataset for all-addresses-in-a-box.
It still seems upside down ; whatever route planning they are doing
only needs to consider the drop points, the other thousands of
addresses are completely immaterial.
