As part of our responsible delivery approach, we actively participate in improving urban life on a daily basis by increasing the delivery choices available to our consignees and reducing our impact on the environment.
To meet these challenges and offer our customers practical and responsible delivery options, DPD France implements responsible and sustainable solutions:
Predict: an interactive time slot home delivery service, with the possibility for the recipient to choose other delivery methods. This customised solution allows us to increase the rate of successful deliveries from the first pass of the deliveryman, thus reducing CO2 emissions per parcel.
DPD Pickup Point: the network of our partner Pickup Services offers our customers the possibility of being delivered to 6,800 pickup points available in France, nearly 95% of which are located 15 minutes from the recipient's home.
The opening of urban depots allows us to reduce the approach times and the kilometers covered by our drivers. We now have urban depots in Paris, Bordeaux and Marseille.
Presentation of our urban depot in Paris:
Our Paris la Chapelle depot opened its doors in February 2019, ideally located on the Chapelle Internationale site: this urban logistics facilit brings together offices, training centres, urban rail terminal, sports ground and more in 45,000m2 of space.
Benefiting from an HQE building, our Paris la Chapelle agency allows us to reintegrate logistics in the city by reconciling respect for the environment and economic efficiency.
The purpose of this facility is to make deliveries in Paris using 100% alternative vehicles from this depot.

Thanks to the expertise acquired with our previous urban logistics projects, DPD France aims to deliver to 50 major French cities using 100% low emissions vehicles by 2025.
This objective will be achieved by continuing to deploy alternative vehicles (electric, natural gas, three-wheelers, etc.) in our fleet, and by opening depots near urban centers, thereby reducing approach times and kilometers driven.
