Strategic Location

CLT4 sits on Tuckaseegee Road in west Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, within a major industrial and logistics corridor in the immediate vicinity of Charlotte Douglas International Airport. The facility is located just off I-485 (Exit 9/10), with rapid connections to I-85, I-77 and I-40, putting it on key north–south and east–west trucking lanes across the Southeast.

The building itself is an approximately 850,000+ sq ft multi-level fulfillment center near other Amazon operations and airport-adjacent distribution space. This combination of interstate access, airport proximity and dense regional demand helps carriers maintain predictable Carrier Central appointments, fast dock turns and efficient integration of CLT4 into FCL, LTL and TL routings.

    • Floor-loaded containers and trailers must follow Amazon’s Floor Loading Policy, including limits on stack height, carton weight, and mixed-SKU loading

    • Clearly describe any floor-loaded inbound in your Carrier Central booking so CLT4 can plan appropriate labor and unloading equipment and avoid dock delays

  • Slip Sheets:

    • Only use slip sheets where permitted by Amazon guidance and explicitly confirmed in your appointment notes; otherwise plan for standard palletized unloading
