General Information:
We offer two different return methods.
Drop Off: The customer brings the packaged item to a local collection
point
Pick Up: The carrier comes to your end customer’s address to collect the
package. (This option is available for both parcel and pallet returns)
Drop Off is the default return method. Pick Up is only available if a
valid reason is provided. (Please note: Except Romania, Denmark and
Hungary)
If your end customer wants to choose a date for Pick Up, please allow a
time frame of 48 - 72 hours between your reply and the pick-up date. For
some carriers, it is not possible to choose a date.
How to Request a Return
Step 1
Check the return request and expected solution from your end
customer are valid in applicable solutions. If not, please deny your
end customer’s request.
Step 2
Send your return request to dropXL customer services and
include:
Order number
Reason for return
Expected solution: Full replacement / Full refund
SKU and quantity of items
Drop Off or Pick Up
If available, drop off will be used by default.
If customer requests Pick Up, please include collection
address and pick up date (if chosen by your end customer)
Step 3
dropXL customer services will confirm the return
instructions. If applicable, return costs will also be confirmed.
Step 4
Provide return instructions to your end customer and ask them to
confirm when the return is done.
Step 5
Check that the return label is active and inform dropXL
customer services.
If not active: request that your end customer provide the receipt
for each package and send them to our customer services.
dropXL customer services will process a refund or a
replacement item for your end customer.
If a customer returns a product without informing you or insists on
using their own carrier, we ask you to provide us with the following
information:
Order number
Returned SKU
Reason for return
Size, weight, and number of packages (if not returned in the
original packaging)
A clear copy of the return receipt, showing weight and number of
returned packages and the dropXL warehouse address
Tracking number and carrier name
It will take longer to process returns that are sent directly from a
customer as we have to wait until it arrives back at the warehouse.
Important:
dropXL will not be responsible in case of loss or
additional returns costs
Please ensure the weight or the number of packages you wish to
return has the same weight or number as the original order you
received
You must provide return labels to dropXL customer services
before the parcels arrive at our warehouse.
Failure to provide return labels before delivery at our warehouse
may mean we are unable to locate and check the product in our
warehouse, and therefore unable to process a return.
Packaging
The items must be returned in its original state and packaging.
If the order needs to be repackaged, the size and weight of the new
packaging must be similar to the original dropXL packaging and not
exceed the carrier’s restrictions.
You must also inform customer services of the following:
The number of boxes that your end customer will use
The size and weight of each box
dropXL will not be responsible for any additional shipping
costs.
Return costs
Certain fees apply when the return reason is “Not As Expected” and the return is organized by dropXL Customer Services.
“Not As Expected” refers to cases where the customer confirms that the complete order has been received. The product is free of any physical defects and poses no safety risks or threats. However, the customer is dissatisfied with the product for reasons including, but not limited to, dimensions, color, quality, difficulty in assembly, cosmetic reasons, change of mind, or no reason provided, and therefore requests a resolution.
The NAE return fee will be surcharged on a weight-based basis in all countries except AE, UK, US, AU, JP, CA, CH, and NO.
