I'm pretty sure Amazon launched its own delivery service.

  I'm pretty sure it is not Amazon employees who do the delivering, but contractors.

      All Amazon Flex delivery drivers are independent contractors. It's not much different from driving for Uber. My last Amazon package was delivered by a 21 year old in a t-shirt and jeans driving an old Nissan sedan. https://flex.amazon.com/ https://flex.amazon.com/ And they hire independent delivery companies (who themselves can hire contractors to work for them) as well. https://logistics.amazon.com/ https://logistics.amazon.com/

        I was curious about where Amazon Flex delivered so I went to their site. No indication of whether my area was covered or not so I ended up downloading the app. Once signed in the only location listed was Pennsylvania. Not where I live so instant delete. Not sure why they didn't just put that on the landing page.

  They did. Amazon logistics. No one who delivers for it are Amazon employees.

        The amazon delivery drivers in my area are not part of either of those groups, they are amazon fulfillment employees, I've talked to them in person.
