FAQs – Shipping Online
Weights and Dimensions
Can I estimate the size and weight of a parcel?
Accuracy is important, so if you have to estimate, try to be as accurate as possible.
- DHL reweighs and measures all parcels once they arrive at our service centers.
- If your estimated weight and dimensions are inaccurate, it may result in additional charges.
Packaging
Can I use my own packaging when shipping with DHL?
Yes. Packing your parcels with proper materials and care helps ensure shipments arrive safely and intact.
