Amazon Logistics has signed various leases in an effort to open three new delivery stations in metro Atlanta in 2020, according to a press release. The new stations will power Amazon’s last-mile delivery capabilities to speed up deliveries for customers in the metro Atlanta area. Collectively, the stations will create hundreds of full time and part time jobs, paying a minimum of $15 per hour and offering a variety of benefits packages from day one.
The new delivery stations will be located in Atlanta, Buford and Fairburn.
“We are excited to continue to invest in the state of Georgia with three new delivery stations that will provide efficient delivery for customers, and create hundreds of job opportunities for the talented workforce. These new delivery stations represent Amazon’s unwavering commitment to safety, technological innovations and skilled teams who are obsessed with delivering for our customers,” said Ashley Lansdale, Amazon spokesperson.
Delivery stations power the last mile of Amazon’s order fulfillment process. Packages are transported to delivery stations from Amazon fulfillment and sortation centers, and then loaded into vehicles for delivery to customers. Amazon currently has more than 150 delivery stations in the US.
Delivery stations also offer entrepreneurs the opportunity to build their own business delivering Amazon packages, as well as independent contractors the flexibility to be their own boss and create their own schedule delivering for Amazon Flex.
The sites are expected to open this year.
