Packing your shipment

To ensure that your shipments travel safely and securely through the DHL Express global network, it is important that they are packaged and labeled correctly.

Packaging guidelines:

• If you are re-using envelopes or boxes, please ensure that old labels and markings are removed.
• Securely fix a waybill to each piece in your shipment. The waybill can be thought of as the shipment’s airline ticket and it will delay delivery if it becomes separated from your shipment.
• The barcodes on the waybill are scanned at numerous points during your shipment’s journey. Please ensure the barcode is flat and not covered by tape, shrinkwrap or strapping.
• Place a waybill on the top or side of each piece in your shipment and please ensure it does not overlap the corners or edges of boxes.
• Use adequate protective wrapping for fragile or delicate items and ensure they are packed as far away as possible from the corners of boxes.
• To prevent injury to our employees, please pay special attention to the packaging of sharp items. There should not be any possibility of the contents piercing the packaging.
• Any individual pieces over 70kg should be placed on a pallet. If you are sending a multi-piece shipment, it is not necessary to place the individual pieces on a pallet unless they exceed 70kg. For example, a shipment comprising four 25kg pieces does not have to be placed on a pallet.
