DHL Orders 1,000+ Boston Dynamics Robots


DHL is stepping up its automation game — again — by ordering over 1,000 Stretch robots from Boston Dynamics by 2030. That’s right, Stretch is no longer just a flashy demo — it’s becoming a warehouse regular.

Originally designed for unloading containers, Stretch is now clocking up to 700 cases an hour, and DHL’s rolling it out across North America, the UK, and Europe. But that’s not all — DHL and Boston Dynamics are working on new applications too, like mobile case picking, one of the most labour-intensive jobs in logistics.

This move is part of DHL’s €1 billion push into automation — with over 7,500 robots already in use, from companies like Locus Robotics, Geek+, and AutoStore. In fact, DHL just passed 500 million picks using LocusBots. That’s a lot of boxes.

By deepening their partnership with Boston Dynamics, DHL’s aiming to build smarter, more resilient operations — and maybe give their human workers a break from all the heavy lifting.

And with Hyundai investing billions into robotics — and Boston Dynamics — this isn’t just a trend. It’s the future of logistics, one robot at a time.
