DX Express — Standard Parcel Delivery Service
DX Express is the core DX delivery service for everyday parcels — next-working-day delivery for items under 25 kg to business and residential addresses across the UK and Ireland. Most recipients waiting for a retail purchase, a bank card, or a document from a professional organisation have their item handled by DX Express.
There are 4 DX Express products available in 2026:
🚚DX Standard Express
DX Standard Express delivers items under 25 kg to any UK or Ireland address on a next-working-day basis. Electronic Proof of Delivery (ePOD) is captured on every consignment. Full tracking from collection to delivery is included as standard — enter your 9–13 digit tracking number and delivery postcode into the tracker at the top of this page for live status
🔒DX Secure Flex
DX Secure Flex is the premium consumer delivery product for sensitive or high-value items. Before the courier arrives, recipients receive an SMS or email notification with a live GPS link to monitor the driver’s progress in real time. They can adjust delivery preferences in advance — changing the delivery date, nominating a neighbour, or specifying a safe place. On delivery, the driver captures photographic proof, a GPS location scan, and a three-point door description, creating a complete auditable delivery record.
🏢DX Secure Business
DX Secure Business covers secure business-to-business collections and deliveries of sensitive items during business hours. It is used by banks, financial institutions, and government bodies for recurring secure delivery routes.
⏰DX Timed Options
DX Timed Options — premium morning windows including pre-9 AM, pre-10:30 AM, and pre-noon delivery are available for time-critical business consignments that cannot wait for standard next-day service.
🏷️Tracking number format
Tracking number format: 9–13 digits Customer service phone: 0333 241 5700 Hours: Monday to Friday 8 AM–6 PM / Saturday 8 AM–4 PM / Sunday closed
DX Secure — High-Security Delivery Service
DX Secure is the specialist DX delivery service for items that cannot afford to go missing, be tampered with, or be left unattended. Banks, government departments, financial institutions, and healthcare bodies use it daily for items including:
On every DX Secure delivery, the driver captures three forms of proof — a photograph of the delivery, a GPS-stamped location scan, and a three-point description of the door — creating a complete, auditable record that is available to the sending organisation after delivery.
Recipients receive an SMS or email notification before the driver arrives. For DX Secure Flex deliveries specifically, a live GPS link lets you monitor the driver’s real-time location on delivery day and adjust preferences — safe place, neighbour, new date — before the driver reaches your stop.
To check the broader depot-level status of a DX Secure item, enter your tracking number into the DX tracker at the top of this page. Day-of-delivery live GPS tracking comes separately through the link sent to your mobile by DX.
Tracking number format: 9–13 digits Customer service phone: 0333 241 5700 Hours: Monday to Friday 8 AM–6 PM / Saturday 8 AM–4 PM
Fraud warning: A DX Secure driver will never ask for payment at the door. If any driver claiming to represent DX demands money before handing over your item, refuse, note the van registration, and call 0333 241 5700 immediately.
DX Freight — Large and Heavy Item Delivery
DX Freight handles everything that DX Express cannot — items over 25 kg, over 1.8 m in length, or with irregular dimensions that standard parcel conveyors cannot process. DX Freight specialises in handling items with irregular dimensions and weight (IDW), making it an excellent choice for shipping large or heavy items that exceed 25 kg and 1.8 metres.
There are 3 DX Freight service products in 2026:
Note: DX Freight closes on Saturday at 3 PM — one hour earlier than DX Express. If your freight delivery is overdue on a Saturday, call 0333 241 1100 before 3 PM or submit an enquiry at dxlogistics.com/contact-us.
DX Exchange — Document Network Service
DX Exchange is the original service that DX was built on — a private, members-only network for the overnight delivery of important legal and commercial documents and medical specimens between member organisations. It predates the parcel and freight divisions by decades and remains the backbone of UK legal and professional correspondence.
DX Group’s origins lie within the legal sector, with the DX Document Exchange network supplying the majority of legal firms within the UK. The network covers approximately 4,200 Exchange locations across the UK and Ireland, used by solicitors, barristers’ chambers, courts, financial institutions, local authorities, and medical organisations.
Members receive a DX number — a unique address within the Exchange network — which appears on official headed notepaper and legal documents as the standard addressing method for professional mail. Exchange deliveries operate on a post-5 PM collection and pre-9 AM delivery cycle, making it faster than Royal Mail first class for time-sensitive legal documents filed the evening of a deadline.
Contact for Exchange deliveries: exchange@dxdelivery.com Membership enquiries: exchange@dxdelivery.com Hours: Monday to Friday 9 AM–5 PM
DX SameDay — 24/7 Nationwide Same-Day Courier
DX SameDay is the newest addition to the DX services portfolio. Launched in April 2025, DX SameDay is a nationwide same-day courier service available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year — including bank holidays and weekends.
The service is operated from a dedicated national hub in Wednesfield, West Midlands, radiating to all UK regions. It is aimed at business customers with genuine same-day urgency — broken equipment parts, legal filings with hard deadlines, emergency medical supplies, and any time-critical consignment that cannot wait for next-working-day Express delivery.
What makes DX SameDay different from all other DX services:
In 2026, DX expanded DX SameDay capacity through the HBC Logistics acquisition, adding coverage across the South East, West Midlands, and East Midlands through HBC’s Biggleswade facility.
Contact: 0333 241 5700 Available: 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year
DX Fulfilment — Warehousing and Supply Chain
DX Fulfilment is the supply chain and warehousing arm of DX services, designed for businesses that want a single partner to handle storage, order preparation, and outbound delivery under one accountable operation.
DX Fulfilment provides warehousing, contract logistics, and value-added services for a large number of customers nationwide, facilitating the storage, preparation, and despatch of goods as part of fully managed supply chain operations. Outbound distribution is coordinated through DX Freight and DX Final Mile, enabling all types of consignments — of varying size, weight, and format — to move efficiently through the DX network for delivery to residential and commercial premises.
The DX Fulfilment service includes:
The flagship 2026 Kettering distribution centre integrates DX Fulfilment, Freight, and Final Mile operations, with 79,000 sq ft of warehousing space, seven dock-level doors, and six level-access doors across a total footprint of 86,000 sq ft. The acquisition of HBC Logistics Ltd in January 2026 adds a further 62,000 sq ft facility in Biggleswade, extending DX Fulfilment coverage significantly across the South East.

DX Final Mile — Residential Delivery Network
DX Final Mile is the consumer-facing delivery arm of DX services, covering residential and commercial deliveries for businesses that need a reliable last-leg partner across the UK and Ireland.
DX’s network is designed to support complex supply chain needs end to end — from first mile collection and secure handling through to warehousing, scheduled and express delivery, and final mile fulfilment. This breadth allows business customers to work with a single, accountable partner as their logistics needs grow.
Final Mile works in conjunction with DX Fulfilment — goods stored at a DX fulfilment centre are picked, packed, and then handed to the Final Mile network for delivery directly to the end customer. For retail businesses and e-commerce brands, this means a single DX account covers everything from inbound stock receipt to the customer’s doorstep.
The service handles everything from standard letters and parcels to large specialist items — making it the delivery arm for retail, home and garden, textiles, and white goods sectors. The 2026 Kettering hub was specifically designed to integrate Final Mile operations with Freight and Fulfilment, enabling faster despatch cycles for e-commerce clients based in the Midlands and across England.
The DX Van Fleet in 2026
The DX van fleet is one of the most visible parts of the network — the vehicles you see on UK roads making collections and deliveries every working day. DX operates a fleet of over 2,000 vehicles in 2026, combining an owned fleet and contracted partnerships, ranging from small vans and sprinters to 7.5-tonne vehicles with tail lifts and full articulated lorries.
The fleet breaks down across vehicle types by service:
| Vehicle Type | Used For | DX Service |
| Small vans and sprinters | Standard parcel and secure deliveries | DX Express, DX Secure |
| 7.5-tonne vans with tail lifts | Freight and larger parcel deliveries | DX Freight 1-Man |
| Two-crew vehicles | Room-of-choice large item delivery | DX Freight 2-Man |
| Articulated lorries and SDC Boxvans | Trunk routes between depots | DX Freight Logistics |
| Electric vans (Maxus e-Deliver) | Last-mile electrification programme | DX Final Mile and Freight |
DX Van EV Transition 2026
In 2025, DX began a three-year fleet electrification programme for its last-mile vehicles. The initial investment of £750,000 covers 12 Maxus e-Deliver electric vans, with a further 48 EVs planned over the following three years. The electric fleet initially operates from DX depots in Southampton and Warrington, covering two of the most delivery-intensive urban regions in the DX network.
In 2025, DX also invested in 240 new SDC Boxvan trailers to expand trunk network capacity — the largest single vehicle infrastructure investment in recent company history.
You can identify a DX van on the road by its white livery carrying the DX Group logo and “Delivered Exactly” branding. DX Secure vans sometimes carry additional security markings. A legitimate DX driver will never ask you for payment at the door — if this happens, it is fraud.
Sectors DX Delivery Serves

| Healthcare and Life Sciences | DX Secure, DX Exchange | Medical specimens, pharmaceuticals, compliance items |

| Technology and Electronics | DX Secure, DX Express | High-value gadgets requiring secure handling |

For urgent same-day issues on DX Secure or DX SameDay, calling 0333 241 5700 connects you to an agent faster.
Tips for Recipients Expecting a DX Delivery
Check the tracker first every time
The DX tracking tool at the top of this page shows real-time status for all DX service types. “Out for Delivery,” “Card Left,” “At Depot,” and “Delivered” are all visible instantly. Most delivery questions — including whether your parcel is coming today — are answered in under 10 seconds without a call.
Count your digits before you dial
DX Express and DX Freight use completely separate customer service lines. Call the wrong one and the agent cannot see your consignment at all. Eight digits means 0333 241 1100 (Freight). Nine to thirteen digits means 0333 241 5700 (Express). Do this before you dial — it saves a transfer and a second wait.
Act on the DX Secure Flex SMS the moment it arrives
If a bank, government body, or legal firm is sending you something via DX Secure Flex, you will receive an SMS with a link before delivery day. Use it immediately to set a safe place, confirm a neighbour, or reschedule if needed. Last-minute preference changes after the van is loaded do not always apply to your stop.
For DX Freight 2-Man protect your access window
Two-Man delivery of large items requires someone present at the delivery address. If you miss the scheduled window, rebooking typically takes several working days. Check your confirmed window in the retailer’s despatch confirmation email and call 0333 241 1188 at the earliest opportunity if you cannot be present.
Use the calling card reference not the original tracking number for redelivery
The 8-digit reference on the “We Missed You” card the driver leaves is sometimes different from the reference in your original confirmation email. Always use the calling card number specifically at dxdelivery.com/delivery when rearranging redelivery — do not assume the original tracking number works for this process.
Call after 2 PM on Tuesday to Thursday for the shortest wait
Monday mornings and Friday afternoons are the busiest periods on DX’s customer service lines. Calling between 2 PM and 4 PM Tuesday to Thursday consistently produces the shortest wait times if you need to speak to a human agent.
Contact the sender in parallel for delayed or missing items
Business senders have direct access to DX’s business tracking portal and can raise an internal investigation faster than you can as a recipient. If your parcel is delayed by more than 48 hours or shows no tracking movement, contact the retailer at the same time as DX rather than waiting for one to resolve before approaching the other.
Never pay a redelivery fee from a text or email
DX has officially confirmed that fraudsters send fake DX delivery text messages asking for a redelivery fee payment. Legitimate DX redelivery is always free at dxdelivery.com/delivery. Report suspicious messages claiming to be from DX to 7726 (free on all UK mobile networks) and to Action Fraud at actionfraud.police.uk.
