When I track my BRT Bartolini package, why does it show as "returned"?
If you're tracking your BRT Bartolini package and it's marked as "returned", this usually means that the package has been sent back to the sender or the shipment origin location for a specific reason. There are a few common explanations for why a BRT Bartolini package might be labeled as "returned":
An unclear or inaccurate address from sender or recipient might lead BRT Bartolini to be unable to deliver, resulting in a return.
If multiple delivery attempts fail, BRT Bartolini may return the package instead of holding it indefinitely.
If the recipient doesn't collect the package within a timeframe from a post office or delivery center, BRT Bartolini might return it.
International packages can be return due to customs problems like missing or incorrect documents.
If your BRT Bartolini package is "returned" in tracking, contact the sender or BRT Bartolini customer service. This clarifies the return reason and lets you explore solutions like resending or refunding. Please note that return procedures can vary based on BRT Bartolini policies and circumstances.
Why does the BRT Bartolini parcel tracking timeline indicate that my order cannot be found?
When your BRT Bartolini parcel tracking lacks information, it may indicate a "cannot be found" message. This happens for a few reasons:
Ensure your tracking number is accurate. Even a small mistake can prevent the system from recognizing your package.
Sometimes, tracking details might be slower to update in BRT Bartolini system. Wait and check again later for potential updates.
If the package was recently sent, it might not be processed by BRT Bartolini yet. Tracking should appear shortly.

Express messaging and logistics in Italy since 1928
BRT Bartolini is a major Italian carrier and logistics provider, specializing in parcel and freight delivery. Founded in 1928, the company (formerly known as Bartolini) has nearly a century of experience in the transport sector. Today, it is part of the international DPD (GeoPost) group and is one of the main players in the Italian market. BRT Bartolini is recognized for the reliability of its express messaging services, its vast national network, and its logistics solutions tailored to the needs of businesses and individuals alike.
Historical evolution of the company
The Bartolini company was founded in 1928 in Bologna by Divo Bartolini, from whom it originally took its name. Over the decades, Bartolini expanded to cover the entire Italian territory and gained a reputation for reliability in goods transport. At the turn of the 2000s, a minority share of 20% was acquired by Poste Italiane through its subsidiary SDA, as part of a consortium dedicated to national parcel logistics. This cooperation temporarily strengthened Bartolini's position in the domestic market.
In June 2011, the company officially changed its name to BRT S.p.A., adopting the three initial consonants of "Bartolini" to modernize its image while capitalizing on its historical notoriety. This same decade saw BRT Bartolini join the French GeoPost/DPD group. In 2016, GeoPost (a subsidiary of Groupe La Poste) acquired a minority stake in the company, then increased its share to 85% in 2019, with the founding family retaining the remaining 15%. BRT Bartolini is thus integrated into the international DPD network, which has strengthened its presence outside Italy. Since its integration into DPDgroup, BRT Bartolini continues to evolve by focusing on logistics innovation and customer service, while relying on its heritage and in-depth knowledge of the Italian market.
Delivery and logistics options
BRT Bartolini offers a wide range of delivery services and logistics solutions, covering both domestic shipments and international consignments. The services are designed to provide flexibility and efficiency, with several options tailored to the varied needs of customers. Among the main services available are:
- Standard delivery: the classic shipping service for shipments in Italy and abroad. It ensures reliable parcel transport with a fast estimated delivery time across the territory.
- Express delivery: the express messaging service, intended for urgent shipments. It guarantees accelerated shipping and shorter delivery times than the standard service, ideal for priority deliveries that need to be dispatched as quickly as possible.
- Guaranteed time delivery: distribution options with guaranteed deadlines, such as next-day delivery before a defined time (such as noon or early morning) in major urban areas. These time-specific services are particularly suitable for professional clients with strict time constraints.
- Cash on delivery (COD) service: an option allowing payment upon delivery. The recipient pays the amount due to the courier upon receipt of the parcel. This service, popular with many e-commerce sites, offers a payment guarantee to the sender at the time of the product's actual delivery.
In addition to these offerings, BRT Bartolini provides customized solutions for specific needs. For example, the company handles large or palletized shipments through dedicated services, offers deliveries by appointment or at staggered hours, and provides transport insurance as well as value-added services such as proactive parcel tracking or return management. Shipping rates are calculated based on the chosen service, dimensions, weight, and destination of each shipment, with BRT Bartolini striving to maintain competitive rates for its clients. To know the exact cost of a shipment, customers can use the carrier's online calculator or contact its sales department for a personalized quote.
Specialized transport and logistics units
Within BRT Bartolini, different specialized divisions have been established to cover the full range of transport and logistics needs. These operational units each focus on a particular segment:
- BRT Express: the division dedicated to national and international express deliveries. BRT Express handles the rapid transport of parcels, documents, and urgent palletized shipments. It ensures timely and secure delivery, thanks to accelerated processes to meet the strictest deadline requirements.
- BRT Log: the company's logistics branch. BRT Log offers comprehensive supply chain management services, including storage, order preparation, and distribution. This division designs customized logistics solutions to optimize clients' processes, streamlining the flow of goods from the point of origin to the final destination.
- BRT Air Cargo: the unit specialized in air freight. BRT Bartolini has partnered with major airlines to efficiently transport goods by air. BRT Air Cargo operates through major Italian and international airports, offering fast and economical air transport solutions for shipments of all sizes to distant destinations.
- BRT Overseas: the division oriented towards international shipments by land or sea. BRT Overseas offers reliable solutions for companies looking to ship their products beyond European borders. It manages the entire export/import process, including customs formalities, and ensures that parcels destined for or coming from abroad are tracked and delivered under the best conditions.
Network and international collaborations
National network: BRT Bartolini has a very dense network in Italy, covering the entire national territory. The company operates more than 200 local agencies and distribution centers spread across all regions, including in major cities as well as more isolated areas. Thanks to this extensive presence, BRT Bartolini can ensure parcel pickups and deliveries throughout Italy in optimized timeframes, relying on a deep understanding of the territorial network.
International network: Abroad, BRT Bartolini extends its services to many countries thanks to its integration into the DPDgroup (GeoPost) network and strategic alliances. The carrier is DPD's historical partner for Italy, allowing it to transport parcels to most European countries via the DPD road network. BRT also collaborates with the EuroExpress network for express deliveries on the European continent. In this way, the company serves France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Spain, Belgium, the Netherlands, Switzerland, and many other neighboring markets. For intercontinental shipments (America, Asia, Africa...), BRT Bartolini relies on a partnership with FedEx to ensure air transport and final distribution in more than 220 countries worldwide. These international partnerships enhance BRT Bartolini's ability to offer its clients global logistics coverage while maintaining the quality of service for which it is renowned.
Modern infrastructure and technological innovations
To support its activities, BRT Bartolini has a robust and modern logistics infrastructure. In Italy, the company operates more than 203 depots and agencies and relies on numerous regional sorting centers and logistics centers that process parcels in an optimized manner. Its transport and delivery vehicles are recognizable by their distinctive red livery, a symbol of the brand on Italian roads. BRT Bartolini regularly invests in technology to improve its operational efficiency: the company uses fully automated and high-tech sorting and tracking systems, allowing it to optimize parcel processing and offer customized delivery services that meet the specific needs of each client. This use of automation and innovation ensures increased traceability and reduced processing times in warehouses.
Furthermore, BRT Bartolini provides its customers with a vast network of pickup and drop-off points called BRT-fermopoint. These partner parcel relay points (local shops, tobacconists, bookstores, etc.) are located throughout Italy, totaling more than 8,800 locations where customers can drop off or pick up shipments at their convenience. This service offers additional flexibility, allowing recipients to collect their parcels near their homes and senders to drop off shipments outside of traditional BRT agencies. Thanks to this combination of an extensive fleet, modern infrastructure, and innovative solutions (such as digital labels without printing or automatic lockers), BRT Bartolini manages to maintain a high level of service quality while adapting to market changes, particularly the growth of online commerce.
Shipment tracking system
Like any modern carrier, BRT Bartolini offers an efficient shipment tracking system to keep customers informed in real-time about the status of their parcels. Each shipment is assigned a unique tracking number, which serves as an identifier to trace the parcel throughout its journey. The format of this tracking number may vary depending on the type of shipment. Generally, it is an alphanumeric series of about 9 to 20 characters in length. For example, for domestic shipments in Italy, the tracking number often takes the form of a purely numeric code (often 12 consecutive digits). For international shipments, it may be a code starting with letters (such as "BR" or "IB") followed by numbers, or a combination including a customer code and a shipment reference.
The BRT Bartolini tracking number allows you to check the progress of a parcel at each key stage: pickup, transit, arrival at the local distribution center, delivery preparation, etc. By entering this number on the official BRT website or via tracking platforms, both the sender and the recipient obtain up-to-date information on the parcel's location and the operations performed (departure from the agency, customs clearance, delivery tour departure, etc.). BRT tracking is updated in real-time thanks to barcode scans of the parcel at each handling. In case of an anomaly (delay, unsuccessful delivery attempt...), the online status reflects it, allowing the customer to react if necessary. This tracking service enhances transparency and trust by offering full visibility from the initial deposit to the final delivery.
