DHL Freight to Be the First Fully Sustainable Premium Less-than-truckload Service
The service is now covered by 95% of all business addresses within 25 countries in Europe. As well as an improved same-day pick-up and pre-12 delivery service. An additional pre-10 delivery option is now also available in defined zip-code areas. In addition, all services booked via Eurapid are now fully climate neutral. The carbon emissions caused by Eurapid shipments are fully offset in recognised climate protection projects, providing customers certified climate neutralisation of their shipment without extra costs. “With continued growth in global trade there is a growing need for environmentally friendly solutions. To remain ahead of our competitors, protecting the environment and acting sustainably is key along the entire supply chain. DHL Freight Eurapid provides our customers a green state-of-the-art premium LTL service for their road freight shipments,” says Uwe Brinks, CEO DHL Freight. “However, the new features are just another proof for our engagement to offer the highest possible level of quality, speed and reliability within our services while improving our ecological footprint. In line with our 'Mission 2050 - Zero Emissions', we are already able to fully offset emissions and offer certified climate neutralization of all shipments via Eurapid.” The DHL Freight Eurapid service is built on the backbone of the Freight Euroconnect network. With over 2,000 daily international line hauls across Europe, the network stands for a seamless, cost efficient door-to-door service. Through the update of Eurapid, DHL Freight can offer their customers fully climate neutral shipping. The green option is automatically included in all services at no extra cost.
