Amazon, with four large distribution facilities in Maryland, has opened two state-of-the-art delivery stations, smaller sorting facilities that get packages delivered to the last mile, often using independent drivers.
Amazon says the two delivery stations, in Lanham and Upper Marlboro, will speed up deliveries for customers in Prince George’s County.
The two facilities, both now open, employ more than 300 new full- and part-time employees.
The 250,000-square-foot Upper Marlboro delivery station and the 86,000-square-foot Lanham delivery stations are being used to supplement capacity and flexibility for Amazon’s delivery capabilities.
