Who this list is for
This checklist is designed for anyone returning online purchases at a drop-off location. It’s useful if you have multiple returns, need to organize receipts, or want to avoid missing any requirements that could delay your refund or exchange.
How to use this list
Begin by gathering all items to return, including original accessories. Check the return deadline for each purchase to avoid missing cutoffs. Print or download your return authorization and any required return label or QR code. Place items in suitable packaging—reuse the original box if possible—and bring tape if the package needs sealing. Collect your receipt or order details for reference at the drop-off location.
Common mistakes
Don’t forget to check if your return window is still open; missed deadlines mean you may not get a refund. Avoid dropping off items without a return label or code, as many locations require them. Never leave out original accessories or packaging if the retailer requests them. Skipping proof of return can make it hard to track your refund, so always save it.
