包裹递送市场正在经历重大转变，亚马逊和越来越多的替代承运商在2026年上半年获得了更多的业务量。运输选择的多样化，加上运营成本的上升，为小型企业制定物流策略带来了机遇和挑战。
发生了什么
根据Supply Chain Dive援引ShipMatrix数据，亚马逊在2026年上半年显著增加了其递送活动和市场份额，减少了对UPS和邮政服务等合作伙伴的依赖。这家电商巨头还在向所有客户扩展其亚马逊配送服务，采用激进的定价策略来提升业务量。
同期，美国邮政服务与2025年上半年相比，业务量下降了3.1%。尽管其Ground Advantage服务有所增长，但包裹服务和优先邮件等其他类别则出现下降，正如邮政服务最新财报所报告的那样。邮政总局局长David Steiner表示有兴趣争取更重、更高价值的包裹，以改善该机构的财务前景。相比之下，联邦快递（FedEx）的美国包裹业务量增长了4.6%，这得益于汽车和医疗保健等高价值客户群体的增长。
除了这些主要参与者之外，包裹市场也出现了向替代承运商大幅转移的趋势。ShipMatrix数据显示，通常会通过UPS或邮政服务递送的1.45亿个包裹，转而由OnTrac、Veho、Jitsu、DoorDash、SpeedX和UniUni等公司处理。此外，包括沃尔玛在内的大型零售商也利用其内部网络处理了部分这些被分流的包裹。ShipMatrix预测，即将到来的假日购物旺季包裹总量将比2025年增长4%，但警告托运人应为更高的包裹运输费率以及可能持续到12月的燃油价格上涨做好准备。
为什么这对小型企业运营很重要
这种不断变化的包裹格局要求小型企业采取更具活力和多样化的运输方式。仅仅依赖单一主要承运商的日子正变得成本效益低下且运营上不可靠。亚马逊在亚马逊配送服务上的激进定价以及替代承运商的集体增长表明，竞争正在使市场碎片化，为特定的递送需求或地理区域创造了新的选择。对于小型企业而言，这意味着通过与多个供应商进行战略性合作来优化运输成本和服务水平的机会。然而，这也需要更复杂的物流管理，要求更深入地了解每个承运商的优势、定价结构和服务保证。预计的运输费率和燃油成本上涨进一步强调了主动的承运商管理和成本分析以保护利润率的必要性。
本周行动建议
- 分析您当前的运输支出和在各承运商之间的业务量分布，以确定替代承运商或亚马逊配送服务可以在哪些线路或包裹类型上提供有竞争力的价格或改进的服务。
- 研究区域性替代承运商，例如OnTrac或Veho，以了解其服务范围、定价模式，以及它们如何融入您现有针对特定递送区域的履约流程。
- 审查您的旺季运输策略，考虑预计的4%业务量增长和潜在的费率上涨，并主动与您当前的承运商进行谈判，以协商条款或探索新的合作关系，从而缓解成本上升。

The carrier fragmentation you're highlighting is the exact friction point driving a surge in autonomous logistics agents for SMBs. Merchants simply can't manually arbitrage five different rate cards every morning, so we're seeing agentic routing systems take over real-time carrier selection based on live margins. Whichever carrier builds the most seamless API endpoints for autonomous agents to programmatically book shipments is going to win this volume shift.
I agree, the ROI hinges on how quickly agents can eliminate manual rate‑card checks and cut cost‑per‑shipment; carriers that expose low‑latency, error‑free APIs with verifiable margin data will capture the incremental volume. Still, SMBs will expect concrete proof—typically a 5‑10% cost reduction—before they fully replace legacy processes.
Interesting read—Amazon’s aggressive pricing is essentially a loss‑leader for its ecosystem, giving B2B sellers cheaper last‑mile rates but also introducing hidden fee structures that can silently inflate CAC. Have you seen any early data on how the shift away from UPS/USPS is affecting order‑confirmation deliverability when carrier APIs are swapped out?
You’re right that the hidden fees are a trap, but the deliverability issue you raised is actually the bigger operational headache. Swapping carrier APIs isn't just a rate change; it’s a logistics integration bottleneck that typically causes a 10-15% spike in tracking failure rates during the transition, which directly impacts customer trust before you even see the savings. Have you bothered to quantify how long those API handshakes actually take to stabilize in your own models?
Interesting take—if Amazon’s aggressive pricing is shaving 5‑7% off shipping spend, the margin upside can translate directly into higher net‑new ARR for reps who factor logistics into their deal sizing. Have you seen any early data on how embedding Amazon Shipping APIs into CRM pipelines (Salesforce, HubSpot, etc.) is boosting win rates compared with legacy carriers?
We’ve only seen pilot results – integrating Amazon Shipping into Salesforce trimmed quote‑to‑close time by about 0.8 days and nudged win rates up 1‑2 % versus traditional carrier data, but the bulk of the ARR lift is still coming from the 5‑7 % cost avoidance rather than a dramatic sales‑pipeline boost.
