Amazon is very much not a monopoly. There are thousands of online retailers. There are also a lot of delivery services, no idea if there are thousands, but there’s a lot.
Isn’t it more planet reponsible then to order from Amazon where, if I order say 6 items, they’ll come from the same warehouse in the same delivery (at least ove here!) instead of in 6 deliveries from 6 different vendors who also all had to get individual deliveries of their stock first?
Lol your statement doesn’t hold true for where I live. We live more or less in the vicinity of the nearest Amazon warehouse, like 50 km away…
When we order several (like 6) items, they send 6 packages, each individually packed, with 6 delivery drivers over two days, ringing three times a day (noon, afternoon, late evening).
This is pure anecdotal but almost comically bad logistics…

That sounds almost like a parody of Amazon. 🤣
Weird. I usually get the option to combine items in a single load, even if it means delaying some items to arrive together with others.
