Quick Summary
Delivering freight into an Amazon fulfilment centre requires pre-scheduled booking through the Amazon Carrier Request Portal. Suppliers transport goods directly to a central consolidation hub or carrier facility for pallet preparation. Approved freight carriers book specific delivery appointment windows through the portal to receive delivery authorisation. Shipments must match strict palletising, labelling, and packaging specifications set by Amazon. Authorised carriers then transport the palletised consignments to the designated fulfilment centre for intake at the booked time slot.
