Anyone fluent in DHLspeak?

I'm expecting a delivery that tracks as being at my local depot at 01.41, but nothing since then. Do they track a 'loaded onto van' stage, or do I just assume it will appear today? Or not, as it's Saturday, I suppose.

    Been a while since I had a DHL delivery, but I seem to remember they don't van-scan items.

    Hi

    With DHL you get an "Out for delivery" scan when it goes out of the local depot for delivery. They don't deliver on Saturdays unless you have paid extra for Saturday delivery (I'm not even sure if all depots do Saturday deliveries). I've had a few DHL deliveries in the last week and have always had an "Out for delivery" scan.

    Hope this helps.

    You need to click the ident code for the complete picture. It arrived at Lincoln in the early hours so will be out for delivery on Monday.

    Thanks blue savannah - I had a feeling about Saturday deliveries, but I had an email from the sender giving today's date for delivery, and tracking
    it at the depot at 1 o'clock this morning seemed to confirm that.
