We will be working with DPD for our Flour Direct deliveries going forwards. Thank you to all who have provided us with feedback on couriers during the trial period.

From a sustainability perspective, DPD’s goal is to be net zero by 2040 and have a 2030 target to reduce emissions by 43%.  They now have 3600 electric vehicles in their fleet.

The DPD app offers the following features should you wish to use it:

* Personal delivery preferences - if you’re not going to be in, you can use the DPD app to make sure you can still receive your parcels: deliver straight to your chosen DPD Pickup location or, to your chosen neighbour or safe place.

*30-minute delivery alerts.

* Active and previous deliveries - using the DPD app you can see a list of current deliveries and track when your parcels will be with you. When they’ve delivered to your chosen safe place, they  will  send you photos of your parcel in that location for added peace of mind.

*Multiple addresses - set your work, home, or even family member’s address preference, so you can tailor your delivery

*In flight options - If your plans change you can stillrearrange your delivery right up until they deliver your parcel. You can instruct their driver to deliver on a different day, to a preferred neighbour, to a safe place or to one of their 2,500 DPD Pickup shops.

*Pickup shops - if you’re collecting your parcel from a nearby DPD Pick up shop, get opening hours, your pickup pass for collection and directions from your delivery address.

Thank you for your time while we work towards tailoring our online delivery process to the best option for you.
