DPD: Saturday delivery – What you should know

by Pramith

There are two variants of Saturday delivery offered by the parcel delivery company DPD: On the one hand there is the conventional Saturday delivery of parcels and on the other hand DPD offers a special express delivery on Saturdays.

Saturday delivery from DPD – these options are available

Saturday delivery is part of DPD’s standard programme, just as it is with many other parcel services. However, DPD still has a special offer for the delivery of parcels on Saturdays.

  • For private customers the DPD delivery driver usually delivers the parcels between 9 a.m. and 12 noon.
  • If you are not at home at this time, you have the option of specifying a location via the shipment history where the delivery person will leave the parcel. Alternatively, you can have DPD leave the parcel with a neighbour or change the delivery date.
  • For some time now DPD has also been offering so-called evening deliveries. In addition to the usual delivery times Monday to Friday between 8.00 and 18.00, DPD delivery staff will also bring parcels to you on request between 18.00 and 22.00.
  • For business customers DPD offers express delivery on Saturday. Parcels which are received or collected by the parcel carrier on Friday at the latest are delivered by DPD to your business partners by 12.00 noon on Saturday.
  • However, this does not apply to islands and customs-excluded areas. If you have already sent the parcel by express delivery on Thursday, it is quite possible that DPD will deliver the parcel earlier, i.e. on Friday.
