# Amazon Signs One Billion Package Delivery Deal With USPS

_Sunday, April 5, 2026 at 8:39 PM EDT · Tech & Business, Infrastructure · Latest · Tier 1 — Major_

Amazon.com Inc. has reached a new agreement with the U.S. Postal Service to deliver one billion packages annually, marking a significant logistics partnership between the dominant e-commerce platform and the government mail carrier.

The deal provides the Postal Service with a major revenue source as it faces ongoing financial challenges, while securing Amazon access to last-mile delivery infrastructure in rural American communities where the company has limited coverage. The agreement ensures Amazon customers in remote areas will continue receiving deliveries through the USPS network.

The partnership comes as Amazon expands its in-house logistics capabilities while simultaneously relying on external carriers to handle overflow volume. The Postal Service has increasingly depended on package delivery to offset declining first-class mail volume as it struggles with debt and operational costs.

Amazon did not disclose financial terms of the multi-year agreement.
