With the development and popularity of intelligent store terminals, contactless distribution has been a hot talk on medical supplies using intelligent express boxes. Based on the traditional vehicle routing problem, this paper considers the sharing economy and open-loop distribution reality hotspots and considers the optimization of carbon emissions in contactless distribution. The travel distance and load capacity are the key factors affecting carbon emissions. The carbon emission model proposes dual goals of minimizing distribution costs and carbon emissions. It constructs a distribution path planning model with multiple distribution stations. To solve this problem with multidepot optimization, we design a hybrid genetic algorithm, and according to the strategy of customer distance clustering analysis, the dispatching of vehicles is divided into three steps. The principle of elite crossing is applied to avoid the solution to fall into local optimum. The experimental results show that the proposed model and optimization algorithm can get a tradeoff between the logistics cost and carbon emissions.
