[QUOTE="worldwide, post: 1248112, member: 2193"] Not sure if you if you are referring to Amazon warehouses or not but they are well positioned with current locations to deliver shipments via ground in 1-2 days. Current Amazon D.C.'s include: Goodyear, AZ Phoenix, AZ Patterson, CA San Bernardino, CA Tracy, CA (opening 2014) Windsor Locks, CT Middletown, DE New Castle, DE Jeffersonville, IN Plainfield, IN Whitestown, IN Coffeyville, KS Campbellsville, KY Hebron, KY (near Cincinnati, OH) Lexington, KY Louisville, KY Baltimore, MD (opening Fall 2014) Robbinsville, NJ (opening early 2014) Fernley, NV North Las Vegas, NV Nashua, NH Breinigsville, PA Carlisle, PA Hazleton, PA Lewisberry, PA Lexington, SC Spartanburg, SC; Chattanooga, TN Lebanon, TN Murfreesboro, TN Irving, TX[91] (between Dallas and Fort Worth) Schertz, TX (near San Antonio) Chester, VA Dinwiddie, VA (near Richmond, VA) Sterling, VA Bellevue, WA DuPont, WA Sumner, WA. Huntington, West Virginia There are strong regional carriers in each of these areas so the combination of the Amazon locations plus the expanding regional network is something that UPS and Fedex will face as increasing competitors. To ignore it or pretend they can' t take pieces of UPS and Fedex volume is foolish. When RPS started off they were written off by many at UPS. It took them severla years to evolve but once acquired by FDX, they became a formidable foe to UPS. There's no reason that the regional carriers can not eventually join together to form a viable "3rd carrier" network in the US. [/QUOTE]
