What Does DPD UK Offer?

DPD provides both domestic and business-focused delivery services with its range of options.

For domestic deliveries, DPD offers a reliable DPD Pickup service. Packages can be dropped off at one of the many DPD pickup stores in the United Kingdom and process the entire delivery with minimal hassle.

For international deliveries, there’s DPD Classic and DPD Classic Pick Up. DPD Classic is a specialised delivery service designed for international packages, offering full delivery tracking and additional protection cover if required. DPD offers some of the best rates for parcels up to 30kg to European destinations. DPD aims to deliver your packages in 2 to 8 days with some deliveries reaching popular destinations in Europe such as France, Germany and Spain in just two working days.

The booking process also covers any customs documents that are required. This is made easy with DPD’s paperless service, so all you need to do is print off a shipping label and attach it to your package. In addition, DPD allows customers to change delivery details in-flight. Whether it’s changing the time of the delivery or requesting it to be delivered to a neighbour, customers can request these services at any time during the package’s transit.

DPD App

If you want to pick up or send a parcel with DPD and oversee the entire process, you should get the DPD app. It will give you access to:

• Driver profiles with star ratings, showing the rating of your driver, their reviews, and personality profile
• A detailed map so that you can see the location of your DPD delivery driver
• Options to make in-flight changes direct from the app
• Progress bar with your position on the delivery round and the estimated delivery time
• Rich Push Notifications that allow you to manage your delivery in one tap

DPD Delivery Times

As you can see, DPD delivery times differ depending on the service you choose and the destination of your parcel. When it comes to UK domestic deliveries, you can expect to have your parcel delivered in 1-2 working days. On the other hand, your parcel to most European destinations should be delivered within 2-8 working days, provided you choose DPD Classic.

Additionally, your DPD courier will give you a one-hour delivery window. As such, the recipient won't have to wait all day for the parcel to arrive. You can also see any delivery time changes online or in a DPD app. And in the case the recipient can't collect a UK delivery parcel, they can redirect it to a local DPD Pickup Store or another safe place of their choice.

DPD Parcel Restrictions

Typically, you can send a parcel with DPD without a hitch. Still, you need to remember that DPD has a zero-tolerance policy on some items, such as shipping batteries, liquids, and aerosols. Additionally, DPD won't deliver suitcases and holdalls. This policy has been introduced due to the damage that can be caused by the wheels on their conveyor belts. However, if you box up your luggage, you'll be able to send it with DPD courier services.

Ultimately, always remember to check the list of prohibited items and ensure that your shipping destination accepts the goods you want to send.
