Does dhl pass to royal mail

In the UK, DHL and Royal Mail have a partnership that allows them to work together on certain services. However, DHL does not pass packages directly to Royal Mail for delivery.

Here's how it works:

1. DHL collects packages from customers and sorts them at their own facilities.
2. DHL then uses their own network of drivers and vehicles to deliver packages to Royal Mail's designated delivery centers.
3. At these centers, Royal Mail takes over the delivery of the packages, using their own network of postmen and women to deliver them to customers.

This partnership is known as the "DHL-Royal Mail Partnership" and was established in 2012. The partnership allows DHL to focus on their core business of international express delivery, while Royal Mail handles the final mile of delivery within the UK.

It's worth noting that not all DHL packages are delivered by Royal Mail. DHL has its own network of drivers and vehicles that deliver packages directly to customers, especially for larger and heavier items. However, for smaller packages, the partnership with Royal Mail is used to ensure efficient and cost-effective delivery.
