DHL operates the call center for this 800-225-5345 phone number 24 hours, 7 days. The short answer is that you should call on a Monday. This observation and the following section are based on analysis of a sample set of 1,764 calls made in the last 90 days using our free, web-based phone (see above).
When you use our free AI-powered phone to call and talk, wait on hold, or navigate for you, you can also schedule the call with DHL at a time when they are open and when it works for you. We will confirm you are ready before placing the call, just in case. That means you can "set it and forget it" ahead of time. Schedule a call with DHL Schedule a call with DHL An important note: busy times vs hold times vs best time to call When we refer to busy or less busy times, we are talking about the volume of calls. The busiest times are when the most people are calling this DHL phone number (least busy times have fewer people calling). This high call volume does not necessarily mean that you will have a long hold time when you call. Companies like DHL staff their call centers differently based on the time of day and day of the week, so you may experience a shorter wait on hold at the busiest of times. When we refer to the best time to call, we are referring to the optimal combination of lower call volume and shorter wait times.
The least busy day to call DHL is Sunday. The most busy day to call is Monday, which averages 191% more phone calls by comparison. Again, this is based on a sample of 1,764 calls made with our AI-powered, web-based phone in the last 90 days. Sun Quietest Mon Busiest Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun Quietest Mon Busiest
We measured the shortest hold times to be on Monday. The longest wait in the queue on average occurs on Wednesday, which is 106% longer than the minimum. Most companies see more fluctuation in the length of hold times, but as you can see, time spent waiting for a DHL representative is more consistent than the number of calls throughout the week. But if you use our free call and talk for me or wait on hold for me service, you don't really need to worry about average wait times. call and talk for me wait on hold for me Sun Mon Shortest Tue Wed Longest Thu Fri Sat Mon Shortest Wed Longest
In summation, the best day to call DHL is Monday. It isn't the least busy day, but the fact that hold times are shortest combined with it being on the busy side tells us that DHL staffs up on Monday to handle the higher call volume, and that makes it the best time to call.
