How to Return a Package with UPS in Freehold, NJ

Most online stores walk you through it. You pick the item, pick a reason, and choose UPS as the way you're sending it back. At the end you get a label, usually as a PDF in your email or on the order page.

Then it's simple:

1. Put the item in a box. The original box is fine if it's in good shape.
2. Peel off or black out every old label and barcode on the box.
3. Tape the return label on one side, flat, not folded over a corner.
4. Bring it in. We scan it while you wait and give you a receipt.

UPS picks up from us at 4 PM, Monday to Friday. Returns dropped off before 4 leave that day. Saturday drop-offs go out Monday.

Send the PDF the store gave you, not a screenshot if you can help it. A full-size PDF prints clean and scans the first time. A cropped phone screenshot sometimes doesn't.

Put your name in the email so we can match it to you when you walk in.

If the store gives you a choice between a QR code and a printable label, pick the printable label. Any UPS location that takes drop-offs can accept a printed label, including us.

This trips people up all the time. Amazon offers a few return methods, and the location list changes depending on which one you picked. The "no box, no label" option only works at the specific stores Amazon names.

Check the list Amazon gives you. If we're not on it and you want to use us, choose the option in your Amazon return that gives you a UPS label to print. Then email it to us or print it at home, box the item, and drop it off.

Packing is a paid service, and we'll tell you what it costs before we start. If the item is fragile, like dishes or anything with glass, let us pack it. A return that arrives broken can turn into a fight over the refund.

Most return labels are already paid for by the store, so you're only paying us if you need a box or packing.

If a store ever says the return never arrived, the receipt shows the day UPS took it from us, and the tracking shows where it went after that. Take a photo of the receipt with your phone so you don't lose it.

If the item is worth a lot, take a photo of it before you seal the box too.

Some stores don't give a free label, or they take the label cost out of your refund. In that case, you're often better off shipping it yourself. Get the return address from the store and bring the item in. We'll pack it, check all three carriers, and you pick. For how they compare, read UPS vs FedEx vs USPS.
