UPS: Saturday delivery - by when?
If you are used to receiving parcels from DHL on Saturday, you have to do without this service from UPS - at least on the usual terms.
- Normal packages are only delivered by UPS from Monday to Friday. The drivers are on the road between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. and deliver packages.
- If the sender has selected the corresponding delivery service "Saturday delivery", delivery will also take place on Saturdays. However, the costs for this service are not exactly cheap: For shipments within Germany, UPS charges a surcharge of 18.10 euros. International shipments are also delivered on Saturdays for a surcharge of EUR 59.30.
- UPS does not specify a time period for Saturday delivery. Given the amount of the additional costs, it can be assumed that the UPS drivers are also on Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
If you want to know exactly where your shipment is, you can also contact UPS. We have put together a further practical tip for the UPS hotline and all contact details for you.
