Amazon delivery tweaks among USPS’ peak season preparations

  • The U.S. Postal Service will change how it handles Amazon packages during the upcoming holidays to prevent overload at its processing hubs, Deputy Postmaster General Douglas Tulino said during the agency’s board of governors meeting Thursday.
  • To improve efficiency, Postal Service operations at the ZIP code level will handle Amazon deliveries independently during peak, rather than having the packages go through larger area hubs for distribution, Tulino said.
  • Tulino didn’t specify if the agency had taken this approach during previous peak seasons, but a 2023 Postal Service memorandum noted that local delivery units would accept Amazon orders “in a decoupled structure” on certain days.
