DPD Drop-Off Service with Packlink
Sending parcels can sometimes be a real hassle. To avoid any unwanted headaches, you can choose the DPD drop-off service, which offers freedom, flexibility, and convenience - all the things that make shipping easier.
Drop-off delivery is one of the most flexible and effortless options to send parcels domestically in the UK and internationally. All it takes to send a parcel via this service is to arrange the shipping and drop off the package at one of the DPD pickup points. From there, the courier picks up the package and delivers it to the recipient's address.
Many prefer this shipping method because it's a convenient way to send parcels, especially when you are looking for a solution that fits your schedule. A drop-off means that a sender is not forced to wait for a courier at home or in the office but can drop off the package at one of the drop-off points when it is suitable for them.
With drop-off, you can send packages even during the weekends or at night (depending on the opening hours of drop-off points), and it is also one of the most affordable ways to send parcels.
With Packlink, sending parcels is easy and time-efficient. We cooperate with DPD, one of the most reliable courier companies, to offer you the most optimal services and reasonable prices for all your shipping needs.

Does DPD Pick up Parcels From Home?
DPD does offer Door-to-door and courier collection deliveries, which are the services that allow shipping from a sender's home address. One can benefit from this solution as a private individual or a business owner (in this case, parcels could be picked up from a company's address).
Door-to-door and courier collection services are available for domestic and international shipments.
Can I Drop Off DPD at the Post Office?
Yes, you can drop off and collect your parcels at the post office if you're shipping with DPD. The Royal Mail has an agreement with DPD, making it possible for post office locations to be drop-off points for DPD packages.
DPD Delivery Times
Delivery times will differ depending on which service you choose, as well as the destination address. Usually, UK domestic shipments are delivered within 1-2 working days. When it comes to international deliveries, this time can prolong to 8 business days.
