Amazon Lockers Debut in Maryland
There's a new feature for shoppers who don't want Amazon packages left at their door.
Amazon has delivered its latest offering to Marylanders: lockers.
Through the Amazon locker program, shoppers can opt to receive their packages not at their homes but instead at a grocery store.
In Maryland, most lockers are at Shoppers grocery stores. There are at least 20 Amazon lockers in Maryland, including in Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Montgomery and Prince George's counties. Find an Amazon locker nearby.
