How to find the nearest DHL location
If your parcel is missed or not delivered for some reason, you can find the nearest DHL location by searching for it online. You can also call the DHL customer service number if you don’t have access to a computer or phone.
DHL is a worldwide shipping company
DHL is a worldwide shipping company, which means you can use their services at your local store or a DHL store in your neighborhood. Their website has information about where to locate their stores and how to order products using DHL.
Using their website, you can enter your location and a nearby store will send a notification to confirm your order has been placed and will be delivered. You will then have to go into the store and pick up the item!
This is very helpful as places near you may not have adequate parking or customer service is limited in those stores. Using this app, you can tell them exactly what item you want so that it is delivered correctly!
When the delivery person arrives, they ring the doorbell and if someone answers, they let them in.
DHL will attempt to deliver your package 2 times
If your package is lost during the first delivery attempt, you can request a second attempt within 14 days after the shipment was made. Your second attempt will not arrive in the same mail as the first attempt, so be sure to account for that.
You can also request a second delivery if you’re not home on the delivery date, either in the shipping notes or via email at [email protected].
Second attempts will not arrive in the same mail as the first attempt, so be sure to account for that.
The recipient must be present the second time delivery is attempted
If the person is not at home when the delivery attempt is made, they must be present the second time the delivery is made. If they are not at home, they must be present the second time the delivery is made.
By making a second attempt to deliver the package, DHL ensures that both parties are present and that the package has been signed for. This process can take a few minutes, and if it happens quickly, you will be pleased!
If there was a delay in getting your package to you due to something going wrong or you were disappointed with how quickly it got sent, you can always request a new shipment. By doing this right away, there will be no lost opportunity to receive your package!
Being able to sign for packages can feel like a luxury- only having one chance to get them approved! With timely deliveries and good feedback from recipients, you can make sure everyone is happy with their gifts.
What to do if you missed the second delivery attempt
If your second delivery attempt was successful, you can still enjoy the luxury of a delayed shipment! There are a few steps you can take to make yourself more comfortable during this period.
If your recipient was not home on the first attempt, make sure they know how helpful you thought they were in helping you find your place in the new neighborhood. Say how much you appreciate their help.
If someone else helped you find your place in the new neighborhood, say how much you enjoyed that process and that person. People love to hear that things went well when they helped you find your place.
If someone didn’t help you find your place, say that it was their fault and send them an apology letter to let them know why it took so long for them to helpyoufindyourplaceinthenewneighborhood.
Call the number on your delivery attempt notice from DHL
If you have a signed receipt or call-back number for your package, contact DHL to verify the location of the person or entity that called or sent the package.
If you do not have a call back number, ask your recipient to write down their phone number so you can contact them.
If your package was stolen, contact the delivery service to notify them that it was lost or stolen. They can report it to the police and file a theft complaint with their local police.
To avoid this happening again, make sure you take out item Insurance for your belongings and/or keep a note of the tracking numbers for yourself and your recipient.
Prepare for your package arrival
If your package is scheduled to arrive at a certain time, make sure you are ready. You can do this either before or after the delivery attempt is made.
If it is after, then you can help yourself to the parcel or you can call the courier if it isn’t delivered.
If it is before, then you can watch for the courier’s delivery notice on their website and/or phone app. If all of these fail, call the delivery company to confirm if there was a problem delivering your parcel.
Either way, make sure you are available for any calls or visits from the courier as they may need to come and take your parcel away.
When a parcel arrives damaged or late, you may be able to contact the courier directly using their delivery service. They might be able to give you some compensation.
