Climate friendly shipping
and receiving with DHL
Our path to zero emissions in Germany
At Deutsche Post & DHL, we are making a consistent effort to achieve climate neutrality. Since 2011, we have been transporting all national parcels and packages for our DHL private customers in a CO2-neutral manner offsetting transport-generated carbon emissions through investment in climate protection projects, thus helping to protect the environment. Our mission is to reduce all logistics-related emissions to zero by 2050.
To this end, we have launched a new Germany-wide sustainability offensive.
Our customers support us in this by handing over their shipments to us. You too can join in!

Packstation - the green address for parcels
Climate-friendly, free of charge and also near you

Our more than 9,300 DHL Packstations allow us to save CO2 compared to direct doorstep delivery, as we can deliver many parcels to one address with one stop and collect new parcels and returns at the same time.
We are constantly setting up new Packstations at convenient locations - so you have shorter routes and can combine parcel collection with other errands. By 2023, there will already be 15,000 Packstations.
Our Packstations are evolving and require less and less electricity; many of the latest Packstations even have solar panels.
Climate friendly packaging
We also focus on climate neutrality when it comes to packaging
With the colourful special editions and Pluspäckchen, with effect from 1.1.2022, yellow DHL standard Packsets are now also produced in a climate-neutral way. We determine the CO2 emissions from the entire production chain and offset these through the GoGreen scheme with investments in selected worldwide climate protection projects.

Climate friendly products and services
Deutsche Post and DHL have already succeeded in reducing their own CO2 emissions per parcel by 25 per cent since 2015/16 - thanks to our commitment to environmental sustainability. According to our own estimates, CO2 emissions per parcel are now at least 30 per cent lower than those of the competition on the parcel market. Nevertheless, the range of climate-friendly products and services is increasingly being expanded.
