The unofficial word in the business rumor mill is that Amazon plans to expand its Prime Now two-hour delivery service in cities that have it to customers using the company’s website, not just the mobile app. Amazon hasn’t confirmed or denied that news, but did officially announce today that it will be expanding free same-day delivery for Prime members to 11 new metropolitan areas in the United States, and more areas within five metropolitan areas where the service is already available.
You’re here to find out whether your city is on the list, so let’s get that out of the way first. The new cities are Charlotte, Cincinnati, Fresno, Louisville, Milwaukee, Nashville, Raleigh, Richmond, Sacramento, Stockton, and Tucson.
Areas where Prime same-day delivery has been expanded are Central New Jersey, Dallas-Fort Worth, Los Angeles, and San Diego. To find out whether that includes your specific area, you’ll have to visit the Prime Same-Day site and type in your ZIP code.
“We keep making Prime better, and as our operational capabilities grow, we will continue to invent and expand delivery options that customers love,” Greg Greeley, Amazon’s VP in charge of Prime, said in a statement.
