The Wall Street Journal: Amazon is testing taxis for deliveries

2014-11-05 19:53:58| Trucking - Topix.net

Amazon is studying the broader use of taxis as delivery vehicles, those people said. Taxis represent Amazon's latest experiment to speed package shipments to compete more directly with brick-and-mortar retailers, and to seek alternatives to United Parcel Service Inc. Since then, Amazon has tested its own delivery service, broadened its use of regional couriers, teamed up with the Postal Service to deliver fresh groceries and is expected to open a Manhattan storefront for returns, pickups and same-day dispatch.
