Announcement reposted from Amazon United States:
We’ve heard your feedback that you would like the option to select a preferred carrier when sending less-than-truckload and full-truckload (LTL/FTL) shipments to US fulfillment centers.
To meet this demand, we’ve added the option to select a preferred carrier in the Send to Amazon shipment creation workflow. Now, you can choose from a list of Amazon partnered carriers that will ship your inventory to us.
Here’s how it works:
- As you go through the Send to Amazon workflow, step 4 is called Confirm carrier and pallet information.
- Within this step, choose Amazon partnered carrier and you can make a selection for each of your shipments via the Change carrier button.
- Select a preferred carrier from the list of options, and click Confirm to proceed with the workflow.
Once you make your selection, we’ll show you the estimated capacity-backed pickup dates that are available for each carrier and the associated transportation cost. If you decide not to select a new carrier, your choice will default to the lowest-cost carrier provided by Amazon.
To get started, go to Send to Amazon.
