If we deliver your parcel to a Pickup parcelshop there could be a number of reasons for this:

• The consignor has instructed us to deliver the parcel to a Pickup parcelshop (DPD Shop2Shop)

• You have specified the Pickup parcelshop as the place of delivery with our customer service, in myDPD or in our app.

• We were unable to locate you at home and you have not specified a different place or day for the delivery. In this case we wish to make sure nevertheless that you receive your parcel as quickly as possible, and we therefore deliver it to a Pickup parcelshop in your neighbourhood, where you can pick it up during the shop's opening hours.

You can find out the Pickup parcelshop to which your parcel has been delivered in myDPD, in our app, from the delivery email in your mailbox or from the parcel notification card in your letterbox.

The note explains how the consignee can obtain the parcel.
