When did they make the switch? I've mostly had Yamato same-day in Tokyo or remote areas like Okinawa.

I think it was a year or two ago? It was a pretty big deal and in the news for a while.

I get a combination now of Amazon's own service or one of the big third-parties. All of them are great I think. I might prefer Amazon's since they're willing to just leave the package in front of your door.

They didn't switch completely, but started using "Delivery Provider" as baseload bearer and use Japan Post/Yamato when makes sense.
