Does DHL Express handoff to USPS?

[BarkingGhostar]

Anyone have any experience with this sort of thing? I know both UPS and FedEx do, but I was wondering about DHL Express.

Ordered something from overseas not knowing how it was being shipped. It wasn't until I got shipped confirmation, which I had to then get translated through Google, before I could determine how it was being shipped.

Says to be delivered by the end of today, but I'm having doubts about that goal as the address is to a USPS PO Box. If it were UPS.FedEx I wouldn't be concerned, but I guess I'm calling the USPS PO this morning as well as DHL (inquire of redirecting the delivery to my home).

They do for me but I live in a small town. My last package from newegg shipped from NJ, went to KY where they handed it off to USPS. From there it went to WV.

You can always call them and ask about your particular shipment if you have a tracking number.

They do for me when I order from the USA. DHL -> USPS -> Canada Post.

I had something ship DHL-Central Post office in MA-USPS to my home.

OK, actually regular DHL does hand-off to USPS, but not DHL Express service. Turns out the DHL Express service was used by Amazon.jp. I got called this afternoon asking for a phycial address since the Express service doesn't do PO Boxes. An hour later I had the item in hand. Not bad considering it left Tokyo two days ago.

DHL is over the road trucking, they don't do last mile.

While this has been my limited experience others have posted the contrary. Also, the clerks at my local USPS have said they've received hand-off's from DHL so there is that as well.
