A YouTube video by Hunter Nelson (July 10, 2025) explaining Amazon’s Middle Mile Program and its operational restrictions. The speaker emphasizes that Amazon disallows use of retail or final-destination (home/retailer) spaces within this program and treats certain pickups/deliveries as last-mile, limiting participation to intermediate logistics points (warehouses, distributors, manufacturers).
So these guys, because it's built on Amazon, it's got a little bit weird, you know, regulation. So, like, if you're hauling warehouse to Walmart, they're not going to take you. So they don't want any of that retail space there. But they, you know, because, I mean, it's not last mile, but like, in this, this program, it's considered last mile for them. So then warehouse, warehouse, warehouse, distributor, you know, manufacturer to warehouse, whatever the case is. Right. You just can't be at its final point of destination where it's the home, the retailer, whatever that stuff.
