Explore smart delivery preferences

  • Select pallet deliveries on eligible large shipments if your business is capable of receiving pallets. Amazon Business offers pallet deliveries to commercial addresses whenever possible.

  • Share addresses between groups of buyers or across your entire organization to help reduce duplicate entries in your address book. Dispersed teams can configure deliveries to multiple locations in a single building.

  • Choose one or two days of the week to receive eligible deliveries from Amazon (Amazon Day – available only to Business Prime members). This helps consolidate orders to your account on a single day making deliveries more consistent. Consolidating also reduces the number of boxes, which can help reduce waste.

  • Set delivery windows to specify when you'd like your shipments delivered during work days, helping reduce deliveries during hours when your business is closed. (Applies to shipments from Amazon Logistics)

  • Many organizations have different delivery points at the same location, multiple entrances to those locations, different entry codes etc. You can provide specific delivery instructions including:

    • Specific drop-off point to deliver shipments (e.g. loading dock, mail-room, front desk etc.)
    • Provide an access code or callbox number to enter the location
    • Offer instructions such as how to find the loading dock
    • Provide instructions about which entrance to use
