With Amazon Freight, we make the Amazon transportation network available for external businesses. We’re pleased to share two awards from our customers that showcase our dedication to their shipping needs.
It’s been a busy spring for Amazon Freight. We’ve been on the road at the transportation industry’s biggest events and meeting with shippers. Here’s where the events season has taken us recently.
This year, for the FIRST Championship robotic competition, Amazon Freight donated the use of three of its trucks and trailers for high school teams to get their robots to and from Houston where the event was held.
As a shipper, your time is at a premium, and you need the easiest way to find and book loads. Our site is built for you.
Learn about Amazon Freight’s new inbound less-than-truckload (LTL) offering and how shippers can take advantage of the Amazon network.
No shipper wants to be wondering “where is my load?” more than they have to. When we asked shippers what the top tech solution they wanted from their freight provider was, the number one answer was advanced tracking and visibility tools. We have been listening and are now giving shippers even better insights into the status of their Amazon Freight shipments.
Shipper tips
Your small warehouse is more than a storage space. It’s a powerhouse. When it runs smoothly, customer orders go in and out effortlessly. But when hiccups like congested aisles or disorganized pallets force the team to pump the brakes, your whole freight process stalls.
With the new year approaching, now is the perfect time to review how your business manages freight and shipping. We’re not suggesting a massive overhaul in 2026. In fact, our goal here is quite the opposite.
As we approach the end of 2025, it’s clear that this year has been a defining period for the shipping industry. The challenges that emerged have not only tested operational resilience but also accelerated innovation and strategic thinking.
Whatever you’re trying to transport, it’s always good to have options. But those options can get confusing to understand how they fit with your transportation needs. To help, we’ll bring clarity to some of Amazon’s top transportation offerings.
Breaking into the shipping world frequently means learning on the fly. That is exactly what happened to Adam Bartell when he joined Intelligent Blends as the operations manager six years ago. He has been learning ever since, so we asked him to tell us more about his experience.
Three years ago, Hanna joined JW Fulfillment as a project manager, and she has been learning ever since. We sat down with her to hear what she’s discovered along the way and what other 3PLs and shippers can learn.
