About DPD UK
DPD UK, a subsidiary of the renowned DPDgroup, is one of the United Kingdom’s leading time-sensitive delivery companies. Building on a rich legacy of over fifty years, DPD UK offers its customers various cost-effective and time-efficient parcel delivery services nationally and internationally.
Even though the DPDgroup was conceived in the 21st century in 2008, DPD in the United Kingdom began its journey decades earlier. Operating as Courier Express in the 1970s, it was rebranded as Parceline in 1984, which provided express delivery services across the nation. Finally, with the consolidation of all DPD-owned services under the umbrella brand of DPD, Parceline was renamed DPD
Over the years, DPD UK has managed to establish its stronghold over the delivery system of the country and has more than 6000 pickup shops in the UK itself. Its expansive network of 84 depots and 22 thousand employees and drivers helps DPD UK deliver to more than 8 thousand customers regularly.
DPD offers the most extensive and flexible services provided by any delivery partner in the United Kingdom. DPD’s expertise lies in B2B and B2C services. It gives businesses flexible time options for standard parcels weighing under 31 kg that need to be delivered urgently. Moreover, its services like pickup diversion and Predict help companies offer their customers the option to defer the delivery to their nearest DPD pickup shop and get a one-hour delivery time slot for their parcels.
Moreover, DPD UK provides many international services ranging from DPD Air Classic, DPD Air Express, and International mail to DPD Direct and DPD Flex. The Air Classic and Air Express services provide fast connectivity for critical and non-critical international deliveries by air.
