DHL
We only ship DHL if the customer provides us with their shipper number.
- DHL no longer offers domestic shipping, only international air shipments are available.
- DHL Express is the only service option – transit time depends on the country that it is shipping to.
- All DHL shipments need to be in shipping no later than 3:00 pm for them to ship same day. DHL requires a 2 hour pick up window, and they stop picking up at 5:00 pm, so they need to be scheduled no later than 3:00 pm and must be in shipping at that time as DHL could pick up within minutes of the pick up call. We cannot call them at 3:00 pm and tell them it will be ready at 4:30 pm.
All Carriers
When adding inside delivery and lift gate services to truck quotes, please be advised that transit times will not be guaranteed, especially via FedEx Freight or FedEx National. Added services and special equipment void the guaranteed transit times for all trucking companies. This is also the case for appointment required and non-commercial deliveries (schools, churches, golf courses, etc).
