Amazon Supply Chain Services Launches Less-Than-Truckload Freight Offering for All Businesses
Amazon’s less-than-truckload freight now ships to any type of destination and serves businesses of all sizes, following strong demand from Amazon selling partners and vendors
Powered by more than 80,000 trailers and 24,000 intermodal containers, Amazon's expanded less-than-truckload service gives businesses of all sizes cost-effective freight shipping, reliable capacity, and GPS-powered tracking
The expanded less-than-truckload offering is part of Amazon Supply Chain Services, which gives businesses access to the logistics network Amazon spent nearly three decades building and refining
Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) today announced the U.S. expansion of its less-than-truckload (LTL) freight beyond its current inbound-to-Amazon offering, to any type of destination, including third-party warehouses, distribution centers, and retail partners, as part of the suite of offerings from Amazon Supply Chain Services (ASCS). Businesses now have the flexibility to ship by pallet, choosing LTL to share trailer space for partial loads instead of reserving and paying for a full truckload. Since 2019, Amazon LTL has served tens of thousands of Amazon selling partners and vendors, moving millions of pallets across its U.S. network last year. The company is now expanding the service based on strong positive feedback and growing customer demand. This launch is the latest addition to ASCS, a portfolio of supply chain capabilities from Amazon, including freight, distribution, fulfillment, and parcel shipping available for businesses of all types and sizes.
