Why you may see DPD / Chronopost / SEUR branding at drop-off points
BPD Express is connected to Geopost (part of La Poste Groupe) — a network that operates acceptance infrastructure under local brands such as DPD, Chronopost, and SEUR. That’s why the location may display those signs, while still accepting your parcel using our instructions/label.
Free label stays
After booking online, you receive a free label: print it, attach it to the box/envelope, and drop the shipment at a network point (or prepare it for courier pickup).

FAQ
1) Do I need to use my local post office to ship?
No. You either book free courier pickup or drop off at a parcel shop/locker in the Europe-wide network.
2) Where can I drop off my parcel?
At 140,000+ drop-off points in Europe, including 100,000 parcel shops and 40,000 lockers.
3) Why does the drop-off point show DPD/Chronopost/SEUR instead of BPD Express?
Because the locations are part of the Geopost infrastructure operated under local brands — you can still hand over your parcel there using our label/instructions.
4) What is the “free label” and how do I use it?
After booking, you receive a label: print it, attach it to the parcel/envelope, and drop it off (or prepare it for courier pickup).
5) Is free courier pickup really available across Europe?
Yes — pickup by courier is available across Europe as a handover option.
6) Parcel vs. documents — what’s the difference?
Documents are papers without commercial value; parcels contain goods/contents and usually require a more detailed description.
7) How do I track my shipment?
Use Tracking and enter your code (format b123456, lowercase “b”).
8) Where can I get help?
