Carbon neutral delivery, at no extra cost
Carbon neutral delivery, at no extra cost
At DPD, we deliver all parcels CO2 neutral by default. How do we do this? By offsetting emissions of our vehicles and buildings into green projects; without having to pay extra, neither as a sender or consignee. That is our answer to corporate responsibility.
Predict
Thanks to Predict we can provide our consignees with an estimated 1-hour time slot for the delivery. Not only does this result in fewer returns, but this measure also decreases harmful emissions by 6% compared to conventional home delivery without Predict.

Delivery with green vehicles
Delivery with green vehicles
By 2025, we will deliver 6 cities in Belgium and Luxembourg with zero emission vehicles only. In Mechelen for instance, we already have an electric van in use, in Sint-Niklaas you might have spotted our electric cargo bike.
A dense network of Pickup points
Our Pickup network comprises over 1,000 Pickup points in Belgium and Luxembourg. We can deliver several parcels at the same time at these parcel shops, which significantly decreases the number of kilometres on the road, hence our CO2 emissions (up to 21% lower than with home delivery). Moreover, you can find a Pickup point at just a 5 to 10 min walk away. That level of proximity helps us to reduce our ecological footprint and to become a more sustainable courier service.

State-of-the-art and sustainable hub
State-of-the-art and sustainable hub
In 2022, we will open our new hub/depot in Vilvoorde; a building in which sustainability has been a main focus. It includes electric charging infrastructure, the rainwater will be collected, 734 solar panels have been installed on the roof and warm water is recuperated for the heating system. A fabulous example of sustainable technology, as you can expect from a sustainable courier service.

By default, having your parcels delivered at a Pickup point is a greener solution, since we drop off more than just one parcel at the same time. This way, our vehicles cover fewer kilometres. Your nearest Pickup point is just a 5 to 10 min walk away. Win-win for the environment and your health!
