Evri : FAQ for Returning a Parcel

Have you received an item that is faulty, damaged or just not what you expected? Then why not send it straight back to where it came from! Below you will find some commonly asked questions with answers that we hope you find useful! If you do book a collection, make sure that you are at home to hand the parcel over to the Evri driver – the company will not be liable if the parcel is left in an unsecured location. You will want to make sure that the courier scans the parcel as well because as soon as the parcel is in the courier company’s possession, they are responsible for the safe delivery of the package.

Retailer Not Listed on the Evri Returns Page

What if I Can’t Find My Retailer’s Name on the List?

If your retailer’s name isn’t listed on the Evri returns page, it indicates that the service may not be available for returns with that retailer. However, retailers might use different names for various services. Please be aware that if the returns address is a PO Box, then Evri will not be able to deliver.

Steps to Follow:

1. Contact Your Retailer: Verify with the retailer if they use this service for returns and under what name.
2. Check Alternative Names: Some retailers might be listed under different names. Ensure you have the correct name.
3. Visit Parcel Returns Section: If confirmed, use the Parcel Returns section on the website to locate the correct name.

Tracking Your Return

How Can I Track My Return?

Tracking your return is simple:

1. Return Confirmation Email: Look for the tracking link in the confirmation email.
2. Tracking Number: If the email is unavailable, use the 16-digit tracking number or your ParcelShop receipt number.
3. Tracking Page: Enter the tracking number on the tracking page to monitor your parcel’s status.

Packaging Your Parcel

How Should I Package My Parcel?

Proper packaging ensures your parcel arrives safely:

1. Select a Sturdy Box: Use a box appropriate for the item’s size and weight.
2. Add Protective Materials: Use bubble wrap, foam, or newspaper for cushioning.
3. Seal Securely: Tape all box openings with strong packing tape.
4. Attach Label Clearly: Ensure the return address label is visible and securely attached.

Refer to the packaging guide for detailed instructions.

How Will I Know the Retailer Has Received My Return?

To confirm if the retailer has received your return:

No direct updates will be sent after the parcel leaves, but the tracking will confirm its dispatch to the retailer.
