Evri (Hermes) Tracking
If you've ordered something from a UK online shop lately, there's a good chance Evri is the one dropping it on your doorstep. Formerly known as Hermes UK, Evri is one of Britain's biggest parcel networks, built around home delivery for retailers and individual senders alike. Whether your tracking link came from a marketplace seller or a courier ("Your Evri parcel is on its way"), you can follow every scan here on Parceler without bouncing between different sites.
Local coverage and last-mile delivery — most often the final leg of a marketplace or e-commerce order.
About Evri (Hermes)
Evri is a UK-focused parcel delivery company that handled hundreds of millions of parcels a year for retailers, marketplaces, and individual senders. It was known for years as Hermes UK before rebranding to Evri in 2022, and many shoppers still recognise the old Hermes name on their tracking and labels. The business grew up around eCommerce returns and home delivery, and it leans heavily on a network of self-employed local couriers plus thousands of ParcelShops and lockers hosted in convenience stores, newsagents, and supermarkets across the country.
A typical Evri parcel is collected from a retailer or dropped at a ParcelShop, sorted through one of the company's regional hubs and depots, and then handed to a local courier for the final leg to your home. Because that last mile is done by a courier covering a fixed local round, deliveries often land in the evening or at weekends, and you'll usually get day-of notifications with a rough time window. International parcels are passed to partner carriers once they leave the UK, which is why overseas tracking can look different from the domestic scans.
Evri (Hermes) tracking number format: Evri tracking numbers are typically 16 digits (sometimes shown in spaced groups). You may also see a longer barcode reference on the label; international parcels can carry a partner-carrier number once they leave the UK.
Evri (Hermes) services
The shipping options you'll most often see on Evri (Hermes) parcels.
Standard home delivery
Evri's bread and butter: next-day and 2-3 day delivery of eCommerce parcels straight to the recipient's door, often with evening and weekend slots.
ParcelShop & locker drop-off and collection
Send or collect parcels through thousands of local ParcelShops and out-of-home lockers hosted in shops, handy when you're not home for a courier.
eCommerce returns
A big part of Evri's business is handling retailer returns, with print-in-store and paperless QR-code drop-offs at ParcelShops.
Send a parcel (C2C)
Individuals can book and pay for parcel delivery directly through Evri to post items to friends, buyers, or marketplace customers.
International delivery
Evri ships parcels from the UK to destinations across Europe and worldwide, handing off to local partner carriers for final delivery abroad.
Next Day & specified-day options
Faster paid upgrades for senders who need a guaranteed next-day or chosen-day arrival rather than the standard service.
What a regional carrier handles
Regional and last-mile carriers specialise in a country or area, frequently picking up where a larger network or marketplace leaves off.
Last-mile delivery
They often handle just the final leg to your door after a marketplace or partner network moves the parcel into the region.
Focused coverage area
Deep coverage in their home country or region means dense scans locally and fewer once a parcel leaves that area.
Marketplace volume
Much of their work is e-commerce, so tracking numbers commonly arrive straight from a store rather than the carrier.
Lockers & pickup points
Many offer parcel lockers or pickup points as an alternative to a doorstep delivery attempt.
