Amazon Changes

Amazon has changed how they do things in my area.

They use a new Cargo Facility and have a Distribution Center in the southern part of my State.

You would think that would make things easier for me, but they don't.

In the past I had a note on my Amazon Prime file stating to use UPS to deliver to my house (since UPS delivers to my door whereas USPS delivers to my mailbox 3 streets away and if the package doesn't fit in my mailbox they leave a slip in it and I have to drive to the Post Office in the next town to get it.

That system worked for several years.

Now, with the Cargo Facility and the Distribution Center Amazon uses Amazon Trucks to deliver to the southern part of the State, but not to the northern or central part (where I live.)

Because Amazon doesn't deliver to my area themselves they now ship most things by USPS  - meaning the items I order don't arrive right at my door and can take up to a week to have someone go to the Post Office to get.

As of now I am trying to order things one at a time and wait until that item ships before I order something else (so the packages will be small enough for my mailbox.)
