Amazon Hub Counter is a service offered by Amazon that allows customers to pick up packages at select retail locations, such as convenience stores and pharmacies. These locations, known as "counter" locations, act as a secure and convenient alternative to traditional home delivery. Customers can track their package and receive notifications when it arrives at the counter location, and can then pick it up at their convenience during the store's operating hours.
