DHL Express’s On-Demand Delivery (ODD) is an online portal created to make receiving shipments more flexible while not compromising on the safety and security, allowing recipients to change their delivery date and time or to collect their parcel at their nearest collection post. Once your shipment has been handed over to DHL Express, the recipient will immediately receive an SMS and/or e-mail message and be informed about the anticipated delivery date. The message contains a link to the ODD system, which can be easily accessed from any smartphone, tablet or PC.
On the day of delivery, the recipient will receive another SMS and/or e-mail message so that they know precisely when they can expect the parcel. Unless informed otherwise, DHL will simply deliver to the original address.
ODD offers 5 alternate delivery options to suit your preference.
- DHL Express Service Point
Receiver can choose to collect their parcel at any of our four DHL Service Points.
- Signature Release
Allow DHL to deliver without requiring a signature.
- Schedule a New Delivery Date
Receiver can reschedule their delivery date and time up to 7 days from their original date.
- Leave Package with a Neighbor
Receiver can request to leave their package with a trusted neighbor on their behalf.
- 30-Day Vacation Hold
Should the receiver be on vacation, they can request for new delivery date and time.
DHL Express does not use automated voice messages for ODD or any other form of notification. Please be wary and vigilant of non-authenticated sources claiming to be DHL Express.
