Amazon got permission to deliver these new items in select areas, using special drones called MK30s that drop packages from about 13 feet up.
You can choose where you want your package delivered, and the drone will figure out how long it takes to get there.
The service checks the weather to make sure it's safe to fly.
Currently, deliveries are available in certain parts of Texas and Arizona.
