26 August 2005: silicon.com's Will Sturgeon tracks a day in the life of an Amazon.co.uk order.

Here we see the interior of Amazon's Milton Keynes fulfilment delivery centre.

The orange crates travel on conveyor belts over the heads of the sorters and packers below. As crates arrive they are unpacked and at this stage individual orders are made up and placed in smaller green crates with the other items that make up that order.

See more photos of the journey your Amazon goods take here.
