About DTDC Australia

 

DTDC Australia is part of DTDC Global, an end-to-end logistics service provider in over 21 countries in the world. Although now a household name, DTDC had very humble beginnings. It started small-scale courier delivery services in 1990 from its headquarters in Bangalore, India. 

Through its timely domestic deliveries, it quickly expanded its hold within the country before branching out to international locations. DTDC Australia’s current service repertoire encompasses everything from cross-border fulfillment and warehousing to reverse logistics and marketplace listings.

DTDC Australia offers 5 main services for individuals and retailers - courier, biz express, international shipping, interstate courier, and sea freight. These are further divided into subcategories. It also provides some great discounts for frequent and bulk shippers.

Its first feature, courier, offers timely domestic door-to-door delivery of packages of varying sizes. The company has also helpfully listed the names of all the partner shipping carriers that make successful order fulfillment possible. These are some of the most popular courier companies in Australia, like Aramex, Bonds Couriers, DHL, Australia Post, FedEx, Direct Couriers, Allied Express, etc. 

The purpose of deploying numerous couriers is to ensure the maximum reach across the country. Individuals and businesses can book domestic parcel delivery through any of these courier companies through the DTDC Australia website or the app.

Biz Express as the name suggests is a business-oriented feature used to deliver time-sensitive shipments within the same day or by the next day throughout Australia. All Biz Express packages can be tracked in real-time by businesses and customers. 

Retailers looking for end-to-end fulfillment services can opt for DTDC Australia’s Ecommerce Worldwide service which offers a proprietary shipping software to help retailers ship their products globally. It comes with live tracking software that can be used to manage shipments on the move. It also enables new businesses to integrate their store with various selling channels and marketplaces like Magento, WooCommerce, eBay, Shopify, and more. 

DTDC Australia’s international courier service includes express delivery of documents, pallets, bulk items, etc. Depending on the size and type of the consignment and its urgency, businesses can choose among the following modes of delivery - sea freight, air freight, depot to airport, door to airport, export and import. 

Customs clearance and duties for international packages are handled by DTDC. It also has an extremely useful feature called ‘Excess Baggage’ where the documentation of any extra baggage is managed by DTDC experts. 

We’ve only scratched the surface of the many services offered by DTDC Australia within the country and globally. Any ecommerce retailer, young or experienced, will gain much by using its services. ClickPost’s seamless tracking API can connect your store with DTDC Australia instantly so you can start shipping in a day!
