Amazon Fulfillment Center YYZ2 Milton, Ontario

YYZ2 historically served Milton, the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), and broader Southern Ontario with high-throughput inbound processing and network replenishment. Our role is to make deliveries appointment-clean: correct labels, compliant pallets, and accurate paperwork—so freight is received without delays. Located on Peddie Road in Milton, close to regional truck corridors and GTA distribution hubs, the site supported dependable parcel flows and LTL/TL linehauls across Ontario and neighbouring provinces.

Important: YYZ2 was permanently closed in February 2023 and no longer accepts inbound shipments. The information below is provided for historical and reference purposes only and should not be used for live booking.

Strategic Location

YYZ2 was located in Milton’s logistics and industrial belt along Peddie Road, with convenient access to GTA highway corridors serving Toronto and Southern Ontario consumer markets. Proximity to major east–west and north–south truck routes supported efficient linehaul operations, while the surrounding industrial area provided a strong base for regional distribution, trailer staging, and cross-dock activity.

Although YYZ2 is now closed, the Milton / west-GTA corridor remains a key freight zone for Ontario, with multiple active fulfillment, sortation, and 3PL facilities serving the Toronto region.

Operational Specifications for YYZ2

Because YYZ2 has been permanently closed and no longer receives freight, the points below describe typical expectations for Canadian Amazon FCs and can be used as a general reference when planning shipments into other, active Ontario FCs (such as YYZ1, YYZ3, YYZ4, YYZ6, YYZ7, YYZ9, and others).

• Booking and Hours

  • Appointments: Required via Carrier Central for active Canadian FCs

  • Operating Window: Multi-shift, high-throughput operations; delivery windows follow the confirmed Carrier Central appointment time. Exact dock hours are generally not publicly specified, but large Canadian Amazon facilities commonly operate on an extended-hour (often near 24/7) pattern.

• Receiving Hours

  • By appointment (local time, Eastern Time for Ontario FCs)

• Vehicle Requirements

  • Active carrier profile and a confirmed Carrier Central appointment for the active destination FC

  • Dock-high, rear unloading at a standard bay (no side or ground-level unloading)

  • Typical inbound equipment by appointment: 53' dry van trailers with Canadian highway tractors on Ontario, interprovincial, and cross-border lanes; 48' trailers or straight trucks may be accepted for certain regional deliveries where appropriate

  • Driver presents BOL/manifest, packing list, and appointment reference at check-in

  • Compliance with on-site safety and yard rules: PPE where required, posted speed limits, backing and chocking procedures, use of designated staging / check-in areas, and instructions from yard marshals or security

• Cargo Preparation

  • Pallets: Standard 40" × 48" GMA wooden pallets, 4-way access, Grade B or better (≈ 1,000 mm × 1,200 mm), in line with Amazon North America pallet guidelines used at Canadian FCs

  • Box & Pallet Labels:

    • Each carton requires a unique FBA Box ID label generated in Seller Central (.ca)

    • Each pallet requires four FBA pallet labels (one per side), applied outside the stretch wrap with barcodes unobstructed and fully scannable

  • Wrapping & Stability: Clear stretch wrap; stable, cubic loads with no overhang beyond pallet edges. Use corner boards, strapping, and layer pads where needed to maintain stability and protect cartons during loading, transit, and unloading.

  • Floor-Loaded / FCL: Follow Amazon’s North America Floor Loading Policy. Keep SKUs clearly segregated, maintain safe stack heights, and load cartons to support efficient unloading and scanning. Non-compliant or poorly prepared floor-loads may be delayed, require rework at the shipper’s cost, or be refused at receiving.

  • Slip Sheets: Only where explicitly allowed by current Amazon Canada guidance and confirmed in the Carrier Central appointment notes for the active FC. If not confirmed, plan for standard palletized unloading.
