New DHL card

101 words

When a parcel can’t be delivered to your place because you’re not in, DHL leaves a little card in your mailbox with information that you need to pick it up at the post office or – preferably – at your neighbour’s. For ages this has been a plain coloured cardboard card with black print on it.

The old, single colour DHL card

They seem to have redesigned it, making it larger, more colourful, Helvetica-free and a bit dumber with extra exclamation marks. This looks modern and like advertising crap. Not sure what the point is. It also looks like it may be more expensive to print.
