All Vondel dead drop locations in DMZ

DMZ’s newest map Vondel has a number of dead drops where you can offload equipment and cash to accelerate your Insured slot cooldowns. You’ll also need to know where these dead drops are for a few of this season’s faction missions.

Here are all of the active dead drops on Vondel in DMZ, as of season six.

Full list of Vondel dead drops in DMZ

In season six of DMZ, there are five active dead drops on Vondel. It is important to know the location of each, as you’ll no doubt need them for a number of missions this season—particularly the more difficult Shadow Company missions.

Vondel University dead drop

The university dead drop is arguably the most-used DMZ dead drop on the entire map. I’ve certainly been using it a heap already in season five just because it’s so easy to access compared to the other four on Vondel.

This dead drop can be found at G3, behind the gas station. Note that as it’s so popular, you’ll very likely come across enemy AI and operators, so keep an eye out and load up the dead drop with your gear quickly, then get out.

Fire department dead drop

Unlike the university, I’ve often found the fire department and its surrounding area to be very quiet. At the same time, it may be likely out of your way as it’s not a central option for you to use.

The fire department dead drop rests next to a building to the west of the map at B5. Oftentimes there will be a vehicle in the car park behind you, which makes for a quick getaway once you’ve dropped your cash and items.

Vondel Zoo dead drop

Many DMZ players may remember the Vondel Zoo dead drop from the early Phalanx missions, but to refresh you, this one is pretty easy to find. Simply head to D7 and enter the zoo, ideally from the west.

Behind the small restaurant will be the white dead drop dumpster next to a ladder to the roof. Like the fire department dead drop, there are heaps of cars on the road just over the wall, so drop your gear and go.

Vondel Museum dead drop

A somewhat central dead drop with its own underground zone far away from the action? Very rarely have I encountered enemies (AI or human) around the Museum dead drop. Do keep an eye out if an enemy squad hits the Museum Stronghold itself, but otherwise, this one is a favorite of mine.

The museum dead drop can be found at H6 and is easily accessed from the eastern side of the building via the road. It is possible to enter the parking garage from the museum itself, simply follow the signs to Parking.

Vondel “Phalanx” dead drop

This dead drop is somewhat central and very easy to access—however it’s out in the open and you’ll be prone to attacks from the university itself, especially for squads at the SAM site on the roof.

This dead drop can be found at E3, just off the road and resting against a brick building with heaps of windows. Again, it’s very exposed compared to the other dead drops in this list. Ideally, avoid it but if you don’t have a choice, prepare to escape into the river or in a vehicle nearby.

That’s it for the Vondel dead drops for now. There may be more added in future seasons, during which this piece will be updated to reflect changes. Some missions won’t require Vondel dead drops—any dead drop on any DMZ map will do.
