The latest news: Amazon refuses to allow single boxes weighing more than 15KG into the warehouse!

As the epidemic spreads globally, various incidents have occurred frequently in the cross-border circle recently. Today, there is another explosive news!

Amazon Europe stipulates: Boxes weighing more than 15KG will not be allowed into the warehouse!

The reason is that the boxes are too heavy and require two employees to lift them, which violates the European "1-meter social distance" regulations.

Therefore, sellers on the European site must pay attention to control the weight of each box of goods within 15KG, otherwise it is likely to be rejected!

In addition, Amazon also stipulates that in the US site , from March 17 to April 5, non-essential goods or medical supplies will not be sold.

During this period, Amazon is temporarily giving priority to receiving daily necessities, medical supplies, and other high-demand goods into its fulfillment centers so that these items can be delivered to consumers faster.

All of this is due to the worsening COVID-19 pandemic in the United States and Europe. As countries work hard to prevent and control the epidemic, online e-commerce business has surged, and Amazon's delivery business does not have enough staff to support current business.

Even officials said that Amazon has added 100,000 full-time and part-time positions in its operations centers in the United States to meet growing demand.

Although this is an extraordinary policy during the epidemic, it is indeed very uncomfortable for sellers. So, what should sellers do during this period?
