You will receive several emails throughout the delivery process of your parcel: You will receive an email as soon as the sender tells us they want us to deliver your parcel and provides us with your email address. When your parcel is sorted, you will receive an email confirming the planned delivery date with a timeslot and allowing you to choose a delivery preference, including the option for next working day delivery. On the day of delivery, you will receive an email stating an estimated time of delivery. If you will not be home at that time, the email enables you to indicate where you want your parcel to be delivered. If the postman delivered your parcel in your letterbox, in a safe place or to a neighbour, you will receive a confirmation email. If your parcel is available at a Pick-up Point, Parcel Locker or point of sale, you will receive a confirmation email. Every email includes a link to track your parcel via our Track & Trace page. You can also track your parcel at any time in the My bpost app or on Track & Trace. If the status of a parcel changes, you will be informed with a notification in the app. You can always choose where your parcel will be delivered if you are not at home.
If you haven’t yet set your delivery preferences , we will generally first try to leave your parcel at a neighbour or in a safe place by your home. If we cannot do this, we will leave it at a pick-up point in your neighbourhood. You’ll be able to pick it up next working day. You will receive a notification in the My bpost app or its status will be updated in Track & Trace as soon as it is delivered. We will always send you an email when your parcel is ready for you at a Pick-up point.
