Amazon Flex: Deliver Packages with Your Own Vehicle

An app-based program that enables people to earn money by delivering Amazon packages using their own vehicles, drivers use the Flex app to view available delivery blocks and choose ones that fit their schedule.

What is Amazon Flex?

Amazon Flex is an app-based delivery program operated by Amazon that enables people to earn money by delivering packages using their own vehicles. The Flex program aims to supplement Amazon's delivery capacity and provide flexible earning opportunities to drivers.

To participate in the program, people download the Amazon Flex app and undergo a background check. Approved drivers can then view open delivery blocks in their area and sign up for ones that fit their availability. Delivery blocks represent set periods of time, often 3-5 hours long, during which drivers must be available to pick up packages from an Amazon location and deliver them to customers.

Drivers use their own cars, trucks or vans to make deliveries. They must have adequate vehicle space and meet requirements around license, insurance, etc. The Flex app provides turn-by-turn navigation to help drivers travel between stops. After completing a block, drivers can receive payment within days.

Flex drivers are considered independent contractors. They choose when and how much to work, with no minimum hour commitments. Earnings vary based on the length of delivery blocks and the number completed. Tips from customers can supplement driver pay as well.
