It isn't limited to Amazon, and it isn't a side-effect of the pandemic. I work for UPS and even before the pandemic most drivers used a bottle or cup on a regular basis, especially if you're in a rural area. In denser areas you can use Port-a-Johns at construction sites or restrooms at businesses. Your commercial customers will likely allow you to use their restroom even if it is closed to the public. I've never heard of someone defecating in the vehicle. Leaving your bottles in the vehicle is frowned upon, but it happens.

And this is why I included cups in my original comment. They can't use bottles as easily on account of the narrow nature, so a cup with a larger mouth is preferred.
- reaperducer 6y agoReminds me of a couple of years ago when Starbucks made a big public relations splash saying that it would no longer require people to buy something in order to use its restrooms, or to charge their devices. Where I live, a week later, all of the Starbucks bathrooms that were previously wide open suddenly had locks on them, and the public electrical outlets were covered with metal plates.
