I won't speak for other locations but there is zero chance it works this way in NYC. Amazon's warehousing/inventory system is based upon efficiency and there is no way some guy is delivering one box to the Upper West Side while passing others that are also getting deliveries, only to return to some central location, to go back to pick up their boxes and make those deliveries.
