DPD: investing in innovations and trying new things

DPD parcel recipients in Raunds will be notified of a robot delivery in advance, and once they confirm that they are at home to accept the parcel, the robot will be dispatched. DPD has worked closely with North Northamptonshire Council on the introduction of the robots in Raunds. Cllr Graham Lawman, North Northamptonshire Council’s Executive Member for Highways, Travel and Assets, said: “We are delighted that DPD is introducing delivery robots in Raunds. “Our aim is to be the UK’s most sustainable delivery company and that means investing in innovations and trying new things. By partnering with delivery companies, such as DPD, we’re propelling this transformation forward, making sustainable delivery the norm, rather than a nice to have.
