A slice of Taunton's Myles Standish Industrial Park just got a lot quieter. Aloha Logistics LLC, an Amazon delivery partner that ran a last-mile hub at 800 John Quincy Adams Road, has shut down its local operation, leaving about 10 workers out of a job. The closure took effect on Friday, April 17, according to state filings and local reporting, marking yet another shakeup among small parcel operators in southeastern Massachusetts.
Layoffs flagged in WARN notice
The shutdown was formally recorded in a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification filing submitted on Wednesday, April 15. The national WARN database lists 10 affected workers with an effective date of Friday, April 17, according to WARNwise. WARN notices are the required public alert to state officials and the community when a company triggers mass layoffs or closes a facility.
Federal records confirm the Taunton operation
Federal motor-carrier filings tie Aloha Logistics LLC directly to the Taunton address on John Quincy Adams Road. The company operates under USDOT number 3471349, as listed in the FMCSA SAFER database, which shows its operating authority and drivers, indicating the site functioned as an active freight and parcel hub before the shutdown.
Local links to Amazon delivery work
The closure was first reported on Wednesday, April 22, by the Boston Business Journal, which noted that the Taunton hub had stopped operations. Separate public job postings and directory entries identify Aloha as a delivery-service partner for Amazon in the region, according to listings compiled by Warehouse.ninja.
Part of a pattern of delivery cutbacks
Aloha's exit is not the first sign of strain among local parcel operators. In March 2025, Summit Delivery Solutions filed its own WARN notice to lay off 101 workers at its Taunton delivery center, reporting the cuts to state officials, per coverage republished on Yahoo. Taken together, the moves highlight how smaller hubs can be exposed when routes or contracts shift.
Company silent so far
Attempts by local reporters to reach Aloha representatives have so far come up empty, and the company has not issued a public statement about the closure, according to the Taunton Daily Gazette. For now, the WARN filing and federal carrier records remain the main public documents outlining what happened. This story will be updated if the company or officials release additional details.
