Confirm the return before arranging freight
Ask the retailer where the item must go, which reference is required and whether they need an appointment. Their acceptance of a return is separate from transport availability.
Follow the agreed packaging requirements and provide packed dimensions and weight. Tell us if the original packaging is missing or the item is damaged.
Plan large-item return collections at the Telford address
For large-item return collections involving Telford, give the full TF3 address and the exact entrance. Use Telford, Shropshire and the complete TF3 address; distinguish the actual town-centre, estate, business park or residential district rather than treating Telford as one undifferentiated destination. Identify the named building and correct access road, service yard or residential entrance, with gate instructions, height or weight limits, carrying distance and a safe handover point.
Check Telford & Wrekin Council's roadworks information, traffic regulation orders and any required temporary order process and all current street signs close to the booked date. A postcode does not establish permission, vehicle suitability or a safe handover point; agree private access with the property contact and arrange any required council permission separately.
- For large-item return collections, prepare: return authorised; packaging requirements; receiving slot and reference.
- Name the actual Telford entrance and receiving contact, not merely a landmark, car park or town-centre reference.
Set out the handover requirements
Explain where the goods are located at collection and whether they are ready to load. Provide the receiving hours and any goods-in restrictions at the destination.
Transport does not guarantee a refund or resolve a purchase dispute. Confirm your return arrangements directly with the seller and the freight plan with the team.
