The Big Spring Sale will kick off Amazon’s first major shopping event of 2025, giving shoppers and trucking companies alike a fresh start to the season. Here’s how.
What is Amazon’s Big Spring Sale?
Like Prime Day in summer and Prime Big Deals Day in fall, the Big Spring Sale means a high volume of Amazon freight. But unlike those other sales, a Prime membership isn’t required to shop deals.
All customers can take advantage of the limited-time offers on seasonal essentials. Prime members will still get their free shipping and exclusive perks. With every shopper given a reason to save, it’s time for carriers to rev those engines. Your season to grow just arrived.
When is Amazon’s Big Spring Sale? How long does it run?
Amazon’s Big Spring Sale dates are official for 2025: March 25-31. The seven-day stretch starts 12am PST on Tuesday, March 25th and ends 12am PST Tuesday, April 1st.
Not only is 2025’s event adding a day of savings—it now also includes the Amazon Haul app (a new budget-friendly experience for finds under $20). That combination creates even more sales volume, and Relay carriers of every size will be the ones delivering those huge hauls to doorsteps nationwide.
Where does Relay come in?
Relay is a self-service portal that directly connects trucking companies to Amazon’s loads. Every Big Spring Sale order will be booked by approved carriers on Relay’s load board and contracts marketplace. Those carriers just choose the work that fits their goals.
- Consistent, quality freight: Relay carriers can access thousands of local and regional loads every day to help scale their business. But the Big Spring Sale typically adds a full week of high volume to the pot. As shoppers grab end-of-season savings, and prep from the garden to the grill, it’s the perfect time for carriers to score profitable spot work and dedicated routes.
- Variety of available freight: Amazon’s light, power-only loads tend to be easy on the body and equipment. But Relay offers work for a variety of equipment types, and extra volume is a chance to diversify business and build long-term stability. With the ability to automatically match with their desired load criteria or rent idle trailers to Amazon, Relay carriers can take advantage of the Big Spring Sale’s demand as needed.
- Tools that drive success: During high-volume periods, Relay’s free, fleet management software provides carriers with flexible scheduling, real-time load tracking, and fast payment options.
