If you are not at home, the parcel delivery agent will try to get a neighbour to sign for delivery of the parcel. In this case, GLS will leave a notification card with detailed information. Please note that certain services (types of parcel) can only be delivered in person, for example delivery only on presentation of an official photo ID.
You can issue another person with the authorisation to pick up your parcel for you. This authorisation can be found on the back of our notification card. The authorised person must bring the authorisation and a valid form of ID.
Unfortunately, you cannot change the delivery time. If you are only present at your delivery address to a limited time, you can also choose an alternative delivery, e.g. to the nearest parcel shop.
Only accept deliveries in perfect condition.
Before signing for a delivery, it is important that you check the packages and/or pallets for dents, tears, damp patches, etc. and note any damage on the delivery receipt or hand scanner (e.g. packaging damaged).
If in doubt, refuse to accept the parcel.
If the package and the goods are damaged, please document this in the form of pictures and contact us immediately. The transport damage must be reported to the transport service provider within 24 hours.
