Absolutely, Amazon offers several shipping options that their customers can choose from, and they vary depending on where you live. If you live in a large metropolitan area like New York City, you can generally expect your package to arrive within 1-3 days. If you live in rural areas, you can expect a delivery timeframe between 3-6 days. A good indicator of the estimated delivery time is a yellow triangle next to the shipping options listed on the web.

Okay thanks. But I want to know how the Amazon supply chain works in order to accomplish deliveries.

In most cases, a customer can expect the package to be dropped off at a local US Post Office. Once the package is dropped off, it is routed to a local warehouse where a cluster of Amazon’s network of contractors will pick it up. They will be responsible for holding the package until it’s ready to be sent to your doorstep. Here are some reasons why the package might take a longer time to reach your home.

Okay, And how does Amazon get packages to the post office?
