‍Here's What a Typical Day Could Look Like

1. Check the Hub app — Each morning, you or your staff will check the Hub app to see when packages will be delivered to your business.
2. Receive, scan, and sort — Once a truck brings Amazon packages to your location, you'll scan and sort them for delivery.
3. Deliver on your schedule — You and your staff deliver packages in your local area when you have time during the day. All deliveries need to be made the same day before 9PM local time.
4. Get paid weekly — You'll be paid weekly for each package you deliver — giving your business another source of revenue.

"Delivering is easy and Amazon has a lot of tools to help partners along the way. My husband has been helping me with deliveries and enjoys every minute of it. We deliver up to 40 packages a day in about two hours — no additional help needed." — LaKeisha Palmer, CK Craft Supply, Saint Robert, MO

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to hire additional staff?

No. Deliveries are completed by people already part of your team, whenever they have availability.

Does this interfere with my primary business?

Hub Delivery is designed to fit into your day and work around your existing business operations — not take it over. Deliveries typically take just a few hours, and the revenue supplements what your business already generates.

"Being an Amazon Hub Partner is a great opportunity for small businesses to generate funds. The additional revenue helped because then you know you're going to have that income for either payroll, rent, electricity, or surprises of breaking down equipment or things like that." — Rhonda and Lyle, Don't Spill the Beans, Huron, SD

What types of businesses make good Hub Partners?

All kinds of local businesses participate — from document storage companies to auto parts stores to custom embroidery shops. As long as you have secure storage space and the ability to deliver locally, Hub Delivery can work for you.

Is there a long-term commitment?

No. There's no upfront cost, delivery experience, or long-term contract required.

How Hub Partners Have Used Their Extra Revenue

"I saw opportunity to take the family business started by my dad and keep it going. I've been able to take the extra revenue and use it to add more inventory to store. Initially, I was only selling auto parts and since partnering with Amazon, I've been able to add other items to the store. This expansion has really taken off and become a big new part of the business." — Marty Sexton, Greenville Auto Parts, Greenville, AL

"Hub Delivery has given us a peace of mind, and we are not stressing about our bank account every week. The additional revenue has allowed us to pay down debt, plan shop improvements, and support our children's sports activities without financial worry." — Mallorie, The Yellow Garden, Atmore, AL
