Track and trace DSV: DSV tracking services

To track and trace your DSV delivery, you will need a DSV tracking number. Each parcel has a unique number or ID that you can use to find its location and status. When you book a DSV courier delivery, you will receive a DSV tracking number associated with your shipment. Every time the parcel reaches a new warehouse or pick-up point, the tracking status will be updated.

If you have booked the service with us, you can use our tracking tool to follow your shipment. We will send the DSV tracking number via email after the service has been confirmed.

What are DSV delivery times?

For DSV courier deliveries within the same country, you can expect a delivery time between 24h and 5 working days, depending on the route. DSV international courier services can take longer depending on the destination, but on average, it takes between 5 to 10 working days. For DSV freight services via road, domestic shipments can be expected in 24-48h, and international cargo deliveries can take up to 5 days within Europe.

Besides scheduling a home delivery, you can choose to send your parcel to a DSV pick-up point, from which the recipient can collect it. Delivery to the DSV pick-up points can take 1 to 3 working days to main centres and up to 6 working days to smaller DSV hubs. We always recommend checking the DSV tracking number to see where your parcel is.

If you need to send urgent packages, check our Express Service instead and have it delivered on the next day within the EU.
