Social responsibility

As a parcel delivery service provider, we interact closely with the society on a daily basis. We believe that it is necessary to give back to society and leave a positive impression. This is why DPD has supported the development of the Sports Centre in Rae municipality, as well as low-income families when school starts and during Christmas. We also support various youth and education events with our products and services (transport of notebooks to schools, organisation of a logistics seminar in cooperation with TUT students, etc.).

Smart city logistics

Daily high vehicle pollution has left its mark on the environment. We are trying to reduce it and use alternative vehicles, making smarter choices for the environment. The first DPD couriers have tested the use of the VW e-Crafter and our office employees have tested the VW e-Up. We protect the environment and are always looking for more environmentally friendly ways for shipping parcels. In Estonia, we measure carbon emissions per parcel on a daily basis and neutralise carbon gases emitted into the air. DPD also strives to make its fleet and infrastructure more environmentally friendly. This means that we regularly update our fleet to use the most efficient and environmentally friendly vehicles.

Digital services
Thanks to the digital service, we are able to deliver parcels on time at the first delivery attempt in cooperation with our customers. DPD sends an SMS to the customer in the morning regarding the time of delivery of the parcel and if it is not suitable for the customer, they can send the parcel to a parcel locker or change the delivery time. This way, the courier does not make an unnecessary trip to the customer and we reduce the level of carbon emitted into the environment.

Fleet
We are testing the possibilities of using a fully electric van, e-Crafter. The first Estonian couriers have already tried out the vehicle and we plan to update our fleet with e-Crafters in the future.

Courier on foot
In several European cities, DPD uses couriers who travel on foot. Parcels are delivered to the recipients within the city centre on foot, without using a car or bicycle.

Supporting the youth and children of Rae municipality

There are many families in Rae municipality who are socially vulnerable and eagerly accept help. We are here to lend a helping hand and work closely with the social workers of Rae municipality.

Every year, we gather lists of children from socially vulnerable families who start school. We buy them school supplies so they would not have to worry about missing anything. 

We also support low-income families during Christmas. The social workers of Rae municipality provide us with a list things that families are missing and we do our best to fulfill their wishes. Here, the wishes are fulfilled by both us as a company and our employees as individuals. Our neighboring companies and their employees also make a great contribution. Everyone who wants to help families has always been able to contribute. 

Pumpkin transport to the Tallinn Zoo

Every year, DPD collects pumpkins together with the Tallinn Zoo. The joint pumpkin campaign of DPD and the Tallinn Zoo has now taken place eight times and each year there are more and more people who generously donate their autumn produce. For example, in the autumn of 2018, DPD transported more than 17 tons of pumpkins to the zoo and in addition to that, people also transported their produce to the zoo themselves. 

In the course of the campaign, DPD will deliver pumpkins from pumpkin growers from all over Estonia free of charge, but those who wish can also bring their pumpkins to the zoo themselves. 

We take care of our employees, customers, and parcels.
