Everything about Amazon Freight

Freight transportation service operated by Amazon

Amazon Freight is a road freight service for businesses run by Amazon. Amazon Freight acts as a freight brokerage service, using its online platform to connect shippers with its network of haulage carriers and trailer fleet. Amazon Freight provides full truckload (FTL) and less‑than‑truckload (LTL) logistics services across various markets in the United States and Europe. Amazon Freight ships palletized goods between warehouses, fulfillment centers and other logistics sites, and on some European routes also uses intermodal services that combine road with rail or sea transport. Amazon's freight and logistics operations sit within a wider third‑party logistics offer that includes warehousing, distribution and multi‑channel fulfilment services for external businesses.
