That brand name is on thousands of trailers all over interstates everywhere driving amongst their customers. You'd think they put a priority on courtesy and saftey but they really don't. They prioritize profit over everything else.broke down plumber Thanks this.

Yep
if you live with in 50 miles of Atlanta , you usually get stuff the same day .
It will say on the app, if same day delivery is possible
the delivery date is on the page when you click on the product and is based on the address that’s in your account
say what ya want about Amazon and Bezos , but he turned buying stuff on its head .
Hard to imagine a company that didn’t exist twenty years ago , having warehouses and factories and a fleet of many many thousands of delivery vans
and , Amazon makes more money off their computer cloud storage too .
I remember when they first started and only sold USED BOOKS.
But they were THE place to find a particular used book and have it delivered to your mailbox in a couple of days
verses visiting used book stores in person a dozen times to find a particular bookHammer166, D.Tibbitt, Flat Earth Trucker and 4 others Thank this. -
Amazon has been around for 30 years they started selling books in the 90's. I remember when they just had one DC for the eastern half of the US and one for the western half. The eastern one was Campbellsville, KY. I remember being a newish company driver in the early 2000's running drop and hook loads from Campbellsville, KY to the UPS hub in Horsham, PA during peak on paper logs. It was (to me) great money and easy trucking.
