What is a DHL delivery point?

ByMunyaradzi Mafaro

A DHL delivery point is a place where you can pick up or drop off packages instead of having them delivered to your home. These spots make shipping easier when you’re not able to wait at home for deliveries.

DHL has many types of delivery points. Some are lockers that stay open 24/7 – you get a code to open the locker and grab your package whenever works for you. Other delivery points are inside stores like pharmacies, convenience stores, or gas stations. The store keeps your package safe until you come to get it.

When sending something through DHL, you can choose a delivery point as the destination. DHL will send you a message when your package arrives there. You usually need to show your ID and the tracking number to pick it up.

These spots help if:

  • You work during delivery hours
  • You don’t want packages left outside your home
  • You need to return something
  • You want to send packages outside regular post office hours

The delivery points are marked on DHL’s website and app. You can search for one near you by entering your address. Most delivery points hold packages for several days, giving you time to pick them up when it’s convenient.
