# Uber autonomous logistics and delivery expansion > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/uber-autonomous-logistics-and-delivery-expansion > Updated: 2026-08-17T11:00:00.000Z. Sources: 30. Developments: 2. Uber Technologies is expanding its autonomous logistics and delivery capabilities through strategic investments and partnerships. The company recently sold a $476 million stake in Aurora Innovation via its subsidiary Neben Holdings, though it maintains a 15.6% ownership stake in the autonomous trucking startup. Uber has entered a strategic partnership and investment in Zipline to integrate autonomous drone deliveries into the Uber Eats platform. This collaboration aims to establish a “hybrid delivery network” combining human couriers, sidewalk robots, and drones. The service intends to provide food and small package deliveries within five to ten minutes. Initial deployments are expected to begin by the end of this year in Zipline’s existing markets, such as Dallas and Houston, before expanding to dozens of U.S. cities including Arkansas. Uber has set a long-term goal of reaching one million drone deliveries per day in the United States by 2029. Rather than developing proprietary hardware, Uber has focused on partnering with external providers, having committed over $10 billion to various autonomous vehicle suppliers to date. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-17: Uber partners with Zipline for drone deliveries via Uber Eats Uber is partnering with Zipline to launch drone deliveries via Uber Eats in the U.S., targeting one million daily deliveries by 2029 and aiming for 5-10 minute delivery times. 28 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/uber-partners-with-zipline-for-drone-deliveries ### 2026-08-17: Uber sells $476M stake in Aurora Innovation and expands drone delivery Uber has sold a $476 million stake in Aurora Innovation via a block trade while simultaneously expanding its drone delivery partnership with Zipline and seeing varied institutional trading in its own stock. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/uber-sells-476m-stake-in-aurora-innovation-and-expands-drone-delivery --- Cite as: Uber autonomous logistics and delivery expansion.
