Thanks Tony for this video! You're my main source of information when it comes to trucking!!!! Quick question please, why I cant see blocks with over$ 2000 . By the way I've just been approved for AMAZON Relay and used to run under other's authority who used to book blocks for me that exceeded $2000? Thanks
Authority is first on the list, especially since there is a 1 month waiting period. You will need a truck with a lift gate, pallet jack, e-tracks and straps. After you get your truck, you’ll register it, bind insurance, file a BOC-3.
Hello … in my account that tab does not appear where it says load board.. what do I have to do in my account or where do I have to apply for it to appear? Thanksssss
@@ShoaibMahmudOfficial bhai, it is possible to give your trailer to Amazon so that amazon finds driver and use your trailer for loads, so basically you are just providing your vehicle and getting paid out of it?
Amazon does not specify a certain ELD system. They don’t even know what kind you have. They track you through the Relay app. Does that answer your question?
I have one tractor and no trailer. Would I be able to do Live/Drop loads? On the training it says Live/Drop and Hook requires YOUR own trailer. Are you familiar with this and can you explain how Live/Drop loads work if it says Trailer Provided? Thank you!
How can a load say 53' trailer required, and is a live/drop? If you are providing your own trailer, i dont think you are dropping it? Does this mean you are picking an empty in their yard and live loading it, then drop at destination? Confussed!
Hey how does it work when you arrive early to drop off a load lets say i picked up at 6am and my delivery time is 7:30pm and i arrive around 12pm would they let you drop off or do you have to wait hours
I have delivered up to 12 hours early. The way early delivery works is if they have room at a door or on the lot that they will not need, up to the time of your original delivery time, they will take you. Word of caution; do not argue with security on taking the trailer. You will get reported, and they still will not take the trailer.
Tony thanks for the video, Question, with Amazon relay they have requirements, if your the O/O-carrier do you need Workers’ compensation insurance on yourself? Can you do a video on the requirements cost etc, ?
Hey Toney thanks for all the great information but how does the pay works do they pay by the rates or miles and do they pay you through settlement or do you have to get a factoring company please advise thanks
Trucking Topics Today thanks Toney that’s great man I think I might try to sign on with them and see how it works thanks so much for the great information
@@TruckingTopics let me ask, how easy is to get a contract with Amazon? I am buying/leasing my truck this week and have the insurance requirement. When do you think i should be getting my first load. within a day or a week?
You don’t start off with contracts with Amazon Relay. You work the Relay board, which is like Amazon’s spot market board. Once you apply with Amazon, it takes 1-4 days on average to be approved.
Hi, Tony Thanks for the info. Please do you know how i can acces the loard board on the Relay app? I have using the Relay load board on a web based browser but I see on the Relay app on your phone. Thank you.
@@melanieregalado I did just like Toney said. I downloaded the Relay app, add myself in the driver roaster list and sent out an invintation code. but still I cannot view the loads in the app. it takes me to my internet browser (Safari) every time I click the load board in the app. I hope that you find this helpful.
No, there is no fee to sign up for Relay. If you would like assistance with your application, you can go to CarrierCheck.net to see if that’s an option for you.
Hey Tony I’m wanting to sign up with Amazon power only in Nashville TN . Can you check to see if there is steady hauls out of Nashville area daily. I have a day cab and only plan to haul locally up to a 350 mile radius daily . Thanks any info will help before I add more coverage to my insurance policy before knowing what I can possibly generate weekly. I talked to someone in the brokerage department at Amazon however he wouldn’t tell me any dollar amounts for some of the loads in my area.
@@marceloevera2009 I know, I work in the warehouse there, I'm trying to find out if they local with the other FC centers in Indiana with loads from the relay load board, if you have access because I don't, I planned on getting a truck in 5 months, but if Indiana uses box trucks from the relay board, I would invest in one, are you able to check the board?
Hi tony.. how did you actually start hauling for amazon? I am doing homework and would like to get content from amazon but I am not finding it. Thanks for the work you do sir
I realized I forgot to answer the first part of your question. I actually got an unsolicited email asking if I was interested. They were looking for Utah drivers, and I think they got my info from my DOT profile. I was signed in within a week. This was probably May or June 2019.
Hey Tony thanks for the info very helpful, I have a question am owner operator but don't have my own authority, if I get my authority would Amazon work with me or they would want me to have my authority for some years?
Hi tony Hi good morning Since I can get a (BADGE)) for my box truck I have an Amazon relay account but every time I want to load my truck they ask me for a card to open the doors and load my box truck they could help me get it
thanks for passing out all the information you're really helpful. I'm about to get my own authority do they require certain amount of years for the authority or can I sign up with them right away? Thank you
Hey when you take a trailer to the Amazon warehouse, do you have to drop the trailer next to the other trailers, or do you just drop the trailer and the yard boys take them and park them?
good afternoon buddy my app does not said load board it give me everything else but that please advise i dont know how to use it i need help iam a newbe and its not friendly
1.59mile lol why get authority if will be hauling cheap freight, might as well be an owner op for a big company n not pay commercial insurance n probably haul for same or a bit more
If you are the owner, and that is your company name. If you are a driver driving for another company that is pulling Amazon Lowe’s, that’s the name of the carrier you are going to work for. I hope this helps.

Hey buddy! What some things I can get before purchase a truck? I'm getting a 26ft box truck. As in paperwork and equipment?so I can be a step ahead.
Authority is first on the list, especially since there is a 1 month waiting period. You will need a truck with a lift gate, pallet jack, e-tracks and straps. After you get your truck, you’ll register it, bind insurance, file a BOC-3.

Is the pay they offer negotiable?
Tony if I hire someone to drive for me how do I pass the app to them and still get paid? I have access to the board myself.
Thank you Tony for the video, this was very helpful to me!
I’m glad you enjoyed the video, Missy.
Swiftrelay is helpfull
Can you book loads outside of your domicile? Or can you only book loads within those areas?
You can book loads wherever you have trucks.
Hey Tony, can you make a similar video on Convoy app?
@@TruckingTopics waiting!! love you soooo much.
@@ShoaibMahmudOfficial bhai, it is possible to give your trailer to Amazon so that amazon finds driver and use your trailer for loads, so basically you are just providing your vehicle and getting paid out of it?
Do you need to have 3 trucks minimum or can start with 1 truck and if you use your own trailer do they take a long time to load and unload?
Loading and unloading were somewhat faster than regular freight, in my experience.
One question is the payment weekly or by weekly thanks?
Weekly.
what kind of eld log can you use with amazon thanks
Amazon does not specify a certain ELD system. They don’t even know what kind you have. They track you through the Relay app. Does that answer your question?

Hi Tony, how do I complete a stop in the app when I have a bobtail approved and don't have to go get a scan at the facility
I don’t know...sorry. I have never done that. My suggestion would be to send a support ticket through the support center on your app.

The company needs to give you access. Most companies do not do that, but some do.
Hello. I have two 16ft box truck. Will I be able to use them . If so how can I come on board
You need a minimum of 26’ trucks, although i know sone owners are able to work with 24’ trucks.
Hi, Tony
Thanks for the info. Please do you know how i can acces the loard board on the Relay app? I have using the Relay load board on a web based browser but I see on the Relay app on your phone.
Thank you.
Download the Relay app and then use the credentials you use for the website to connect on your app.
Thanks for your quick reply, Tony. I did sign in With my credentials bu that didn’t change anything. I still cannot see the load board on app.
You will need to call tech support. Call the Relay phone number you have and listen for the extension for tech support.
Hi, I do not have load board on my app either. Were you able to fix it? If so how? Thanks
@@melanieregalado I did just like Toney said.

What's the average length of solo runs? I'm hearing anything over 500 miles is considered a team run.
The company I work for our runs are about 150 - 180 miles
What does Re-tendered Trips mean? In your history box.
Not sure what that is. Could it be a trip you accepted, and then gave back?
Do you need workman compensation if your the only driver to start relay
Usually, no. But use Google to search for the requirements of your state and your business model.
I’m having a hard time finding it for Massachusetts
For some reason reno doesnt show any loads for me anymore. It used to.
How are your metrics?
Hello, Tony 😁
Can box truck drivers use this ?
Yes. There is box truck work on the Relay board.
Hello , when does the begin work appear if i book the load a week in advance
Good question. i would assume within a few hours of the pickup time, but I am not sure. I never booked that far in advance.
@@TruckingTopics thank you
I just have a question,
What does it mean when a load is shaded pink or green? And thank you
Do I need to get my own truck to do work on Amazon relay app
Yes you do. Go to SameDayDOT.net when your ready to get your authority.
What is a Load ID or ISA?? I’m stuck here… already got DOT and everything else..
So do you do just load boards / apps for freight? Or that in combination with anything else? Seems like a good way to go and just do power only
Hi, is there a fee so sign up with Amazon relay?
No, there is no fee to sign up for Relay. If you would like assistance with your application, you can go to CarrierCheck.net to see if that’s an option for you.
Thinking of using a single axle. What's the heaviest you have pulled? Anyway to see how heavy it will be as I have to be under 20k
My average load was 5-10K. Heaviest was right at 20K.
Thanks for the info. Very thorough video. Getting ready to get my own authority to run Amazon direct. I’ll get in touch with you if any questions.
That’s great, George. Please feel free to reach out!
I’m bout to buy my first truck will they let me pull for them
You will need to get your own authority. If you need help with that, you can go to FMCSAAuthority.com to start the process.
Hey there Tony do you ever have trouble finding loads on Amazon
Not in Southern California. The southwest is pretty busy.
@@TruckingTopics nice nice good to know thanks buddy
Can you run for them with a new authority?

Hey when you take a trailer to the Amazon warehouse, do you have to drop the trailer next to the other trailers, or do you just drop the trailer and the yard boys take them and park them?
when you check in you get a parking slip or door assigned to your trailer.
If volume drops they need to inform you of the situation instead of keeping you guessing
