    And how will they know if you did or not. It's non of their business whose frieght truckers move. Also, JCT does have one load that delivers to Amazon. Grant it it's usually only one pallet of chicken. Guess WM going to cancel JCT's contract.

    Then they're going to lose Werner because I hauled tons of Amazon with them. I'm sure Swift & Schneider pulls Amazon to.

    I'm sure all the megas pull both Amazon and Walmart.

    What are they going to do stop shipping via FedEx ups and the postal service because they haul Amazon packages?

    Maybe that's why Walmart's been running hiring commercials day and night on XM Radio because they need to beef up their private fleet because they're going to have no access to anybody hauling anything if they want to cut their nose off to spite their face over Amazon.

    I cannot imagine how Walmart can dictate to a business who and what entities that other company may do business with. If my company with 1000 trucks has a contract to haul Walmart freight on 300 of my trucks it is not Walmart's business what I load on my other 700 trucks. In fact if Walmart tried to penalize for that, they would be at risk for breaching contract.

    On the other hand if they do have a leg to stand on, Amazon would be wise to raise their rates and go after every carrier that hauls Walmart to force Walmart to sever relationships.

    I'm sure they wouldn't have to raise their rates that much.... Honestly all they need to do is Implement a shipping system like Costco and I'm sure carriers will be jumping ship just so they wouldn't have to deal with the long wait times
