DPD tracking

To get accurate and real-time tracking of your DPD parcels, use Ship Resolve as your universal tracking service. To track with Ship Resolve, go to the homepage and enter your DPD tracking number. You can enter up to 10 DPD tracking numbers at the same time and it can be tracking numbers from different couriers as well. Hit “Enter” and wait for a few seconds to get the results.

DPD is one of Europe’s largest delivery services. The company delivers around 3 million parcels a day across 230 countries. The reason for DPD’s success is that they cater to their customers’ needs very promptly. It is the only company to have a one-hour service. This means that they can deliver your parcel to your doorstep in a one-hour timeframe.

Track DPD Parcel

DPD shipping services include parcels and goods tracking. The DPD tracking system can be found on its website and tracks products along their journey right up to the point they reach their final destination. The sender or recipient of the consignment can stay updated on the whereabouts of his or her goods at any time and as many times as they like using this method.

However, buyers should note that tracking via the DPD website only allows you to enter DPD tracking numbers. DPD cannot track a parcel’s tracking number that has not been issued by DPD itself.

Also, suppose a tracking number of a particular parcel should vary as it changes hands between DPD and local courier services. In that case, the DPD tracking website could encounter difficulty keeping customers one hundred per cent up to date on the progress of their parcel.

Whether the parcel is being handled by China Post, FedExRoyal Mail, or PostNL, the Ship Resolve tracking tool uses the DPD tracking number to automatically detect which courier a parcel is with. This automatic courier detection system makes it as simple as possible to use Ship Resolve and sets it apart from other tracking systems in the market.

How do I track my DPD international parcel?

DPD, like many other postal services, sometimes subcontract shipments, especially international orders from the UK, Denmark, Portugal, Italy, etc. Subsequently, they may not have the capability to offer true end-to-end universal tracking options with their own in-house tracking system. This means items shipped with DPD may at some point change hands with other couriers.

DPD Tracking Number not working

There might be some cases where your DPD tracking number does not work or does not update. When this happens, it’s typically because the sender has registered the parcel for a DPD tracking number but has not given DPD the parcel yet. Wait for at least 24 hours before trying to track the parcel again.

Another reason why the DPD tracking number is not working or updating is that there could be some typographical errors on the tracking number that you have entered. Make sure to double-check the number and letters and try again.

Can I track my Amazon order through DPD?

Where does my DPD parcel pass through?

Although the company is based in France, with its headquarters located in Issy-les-Moulineaux, France, your DPD parcel can pass through any of its international depots.

It should be noted that DPD does not ship or process parcels at its French headquarters. When DPD receives a parcel it will move it along the fastest possible route to its final destination, and it does not need to go through any particular point before it is processed, but it is instead processed at one of its many processing countries around Europe and the world.

Therefore, if you are tracking a DPD parcel, you should not necessarily expect to see the headquarters address, or any DPD office address, as part of the parcel’s journey.

To know where your parcel is on its journey at any time, 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, Ship Resolve tracking offers to pinpoint accuracy on your DPD parcel’s location. Ship Resolve’s tracking tool will also give you the latest tracking information, such as the status of the shipment.

This is important if your parcel is out for delivery or it is stuck at customs, buyers will want to have access to that information to proceed accordingly to resolve any issues.

What happens if I miss my DPD delivery?

DPD drivers will try to contact you as much as possible to get your attention before leaving your place. In an instance where you won’t be able to get your parcel, the drivers can give your parcel to your neighbour or if you don’t get along well with your neighbour, you can contact DPD and ask them to change the delivery address or the delivery time.

If after the first attempt you were still not able to receive your DPD parcels, they will then be stored at the nearest Pickup parcelshop for you to collect.

How long does DPD take to deliver?

The DPD services are known to be on time and reliable, with DPD parcel delivery typically happening on the same date of arrival at the port terminal. Buyers and sellers should note, however, that delivery time depends on the distance and the shipping options chosen by the sender. When purchasing DPD delivery services, the buyer will be met with various options which range in price depending on the timeframe they desire for delivery.

The option chosen by the buyer will also in turn decide the transportation method, with faster shipping options usually done by air or road, and slower delivery options by train or sea.

Is GeoPost and DPD Group owned by La Poste?

For its international deliveries, La Poste, which is France’s leading domestic postal services operator, uses GeoPost. GeoPost is a holding company owned by Le Groupe La Poste, with DPD Group being the parcel delivery network of GeoPost.

Can Ship Resolve track my parcel through GeoPost, DPD, and La Poste couriers?

DPD shipment services and GeoPost have separate tracking tools on their websites for parcels. This is the same for La Poste. This makes tracking a parcel that passes between these couriers and postal services difficult, especially if the tracking number changes slightly as it progresses on its journey and between handlers.

A solution to track all of the above couriers, as well as hundreds more, is the Ship Resolve website. Ship Resolve’s universal tracking system is designed to take tracking number variables into account and can track a DPD, GeoPost of La Poste parcel along its journey no matter how many couriers it passes between or countries its passes through.

The Ship Resolve tracking system scans all the relevant courier websites to find the location of your, as well as update you on the parcel’s current status.

About DPD

Founded in France in 1999 as Dynamic Parcel Distribution (DPD), the company is currently the second-largest parcel delivery network across Europe. As well as covering its country of origin, France, and Europe, DPD also offers international shipment options to Asia, Africa, and other international destinations through its various partnerships with international courier companies and its internationally-orientated subsidiaries.

Today, DPD is part of the DPD Group, which owns, is in partnership with, and shares logistics operations with multiple different couriers, which has ensured the expansion of the company’s delivery capability worldwide. DPD is owned by La Poste and is part of La Poste’s international arm GeoPost. DPD’s main competitors in Europe are TNT and DHL.

The idea behind the creation of DPD was to speed up the delivery process by processing parcels faster once they have reached a DPD depot station. Rather than the traditional method of keeping parcels within the container freight station, upon arrival, parcels are immediately dispatched. (Container Freight Station refers to a warehouse where cargo belongs to multiple export and importers. A CFS is typically owned by a shipping line and is responsible for customs check procedures.)

In this respect, the shipment no longer waits for approval at CFS, but it gets delivered faster to the owner. The parcel usually lands at the port terminal and is delivered to the customer on the same day or within 72 hours. The DPD services make the movement and delivery of the consignment more transparent. The frustrating moments of guessing the delivery date are over when you are using the DPD services.
