Amazon.com is looking to sharply cut the number of packages it sends through the U.S. Postal Service, with plans to reduce shipments by at least two-thirds by fall 2023. This significant reduction could cost the Postal Service millions of dollars in revenue, as Amazon is considered its top customer.

The move comes as Amazon has been pulling back on its postal shipments, a trend that has been observed over recent months. The company’s contract with the U.S. Postal Service is set to expire in fall 2023, raising questions about the future of their partnership.

Historically, Amazon has relied heavily on the Postal Service for its logistics, making this shift a notable change in their operational strategy. The potential loss of revenue for the Postal Service could have broader implications, especially as it navigates financial challenges.

Parmod Kalia, a former sub postmaster, recently died while awaiting compensation related to the Post Office scandal, highlighting ongoing issues within the postal system. His case underscores the struggles faced by individuals connected to the Postal Service, which may be exacerbated by the impending revenue loss.

Observers are closely watching how this decision will unfold and what it means for the U.S. Postal Service’s financial health. Details remain unconfirmed regarding the exact impact of Amazon’s decision on the Postal Service’s operations and future contracts.
