The way Postbus Courier functions is quite simple: First, customers print out the shipping documents they filled out onscreen (www.postbus.de/postbus-kurier) and take them together with their parcel(s) to the Postbus Courier service point at the main omnibus station in Berlin or Hamburg. There, they hand over their parcels to the service staff member, who then places the item in a bag, seals it and stows the bag securely in the Postbus. These latter steps protect the parcels from damage and theft during transport. Recipients can personally pick up items on the same day at the arrival destination or have third-persons collect the items after proving their legitimacy through appropriate identification or providing the right parcel TAN.

During its introductory phase, the Postbus Courier service will cost 20 EUR and must be paid for in cash at the parcel drop-off location at the service point.

Same-day parcel transport using Postbus Courier will be offered once per day (Monday to Friday) on every line during the introductory phase. Departure and arrival times and the different drop-off and collection periods are listed in the attached overview. The general terms of conditions of DHL Paket/Express (national) apply with one restriction: Parcels can be no larger than the size of Packset L, i.e. 45.0 x 35.0 x 20.0 cm. Maximum weight is ten kilograms. Roll-shaped formats are allowed. Animals, explosive/hazardous materials or perishable goods are not permitted.
