- Amazon has introduced a new delivery option for Prime members called Amazon Day, which allows you to choose any day of the week (except Sunday) to receive all of your orders at one time.
- You won't be locked in to whichever day you choose — you can change your day preference at any time.
- This predictable and less wasteful shipping program does not replace Amazon's current same-day, one-day, two-day, and no-rush shipping policies. You can still pick and choose the most appropriate delivery option for each of your orders.
- With Prime day coming up this October 13 and 14, prepare by learning what an Amazon Day is, and how to set your own.
Amazon Day is one of the newer additions to Amazon's wide variety of Prime delivery options, which include same-day, one-day, two-day, and no-rush shipping.
By setting an Amazon Day, Prime members can choose a specific day of the week when all orders will arrive together, rather than receive each individual order as soon as they are available. Considering that Amazon Prime Day 2020 is just around the corner, scheduling shipments is a handy option to have. For many shoppers, this event will involve several orders that would otherwise be shipped individually.
With Amazon Day you'll know exactly when your items will arrive and they'll be grouped together whenever possible, reducing packaging waste. You can also plan ahead to receive your orders in person, to lower the risk of packages going missing.
The best part: it's a free perk for Prime members. Most items that are eligible for Prime free 2-day shipping and shipped by Amazon can be ordered with Amazon Day. Eligibility varies, though, so make sure to double-check your order at checkout to ensure you're ordering with Amazon Day shipping.
It's an attractive option to have if you regularly order from Amazon, aren't in a rush to receive your item immediately, and want to reduce packaging waste. It's also helpful for anyone who prefers or needs to be home to receive their packages.
How to use Amazon Day
When you take your cart to checkout, you'll notice that Amazon Day is now a delivery option below the other Prime delivery options:
Click 'Choose Your Amazon Day' and the window below pops up. Your order can be delivered Monday through Saturday. All items ordered throughout the week will be delivered on your chosen day, as long as you order it at least two days beforehand.
Your Amazon Day preference is now saved. You aren't locked into it either — you can always choose any of the other Prime shipping options or select a different Amazon Day if you need your order sooner.
