Frequently asked questions

Oops handles online, in-store, and gift returns to almost any retailer (including furniture and oversized items).

We'll pick up and return your items for you, whether that means shipping them to the original vendor or bringing them back to the store.

If you have an oversized item to return, just let us know when scheduling your pickup so we can plan accordingly.

We ask that your return items aren't hazardous or illegal, per our terms of service.

On the off chance we're unable to return your purchase, we'll get in touch and make it right.

If you have questions about what you can return, call, text, or email us and we'll help you out.

Yes! We'll return all the gifts you don't want to keep so you can get what you really wanted instead. Usually, the retailer will provide you with a gift card or store credit equal to the value of your gift return.

Just upload, text, or email us the gift receipt or proof of purchase, or just leave it out with your gift return pickup.

No gift receipt? No problem. We'll work with you and the original retailer to help you navigate post-holiday return policies so you can swap your gift for something you'll love.

Every return pickup is insured up to $1,000, so you can rest assured you'll always get your money back.

Return protection starts the moment you leave your items on your doorstep and covers accidental damage, theft, and the possibility of getting lost in transit.

If we're aware of an issue with your return, we'll contact you directly. If you have concerns about your return status, you can always get in touch.

If you're making a return, we'll need a return label, receipt, or QR code in order to process your pickup.

The good news? You don't have to print a thing. Just upload a screenshot or photo when scheduling your pickup.

You can also text or email us a copy of your return label or QR code, if you'd prefer.

Making an online return? You'll need to initiate the return with your retailer first. You can usually do this on the retailer's website or by contacting them directly. Be sure to check your return policy for details.

Questions? Contact us for help.

We'd love to take donations off your hands! We'll pick up clothes, furniture, toys, household goods, decor, and more.

Just select "Donation" when scheduling your pickup and be sure to let us know if your donation is oversized (won't fit in the back of a standard SUV).

We ask that all donations weigh 50 lbs. or less. If you have a donation that's bigger than this, contact us and we'll do our best to help you out!

We sure do! We return in-store purchases to almost any retailer, with the exception of Costco, which requires the member to be present. We hope to handle your in-store Costco returns soon!

If you're returning an in-store purchase, just attach your receipt to your return item(s) or take a upload a picture when scheduling your pickup.

We'll typically process your return within 3 business days of your pickup. The original retailer will then issue your refund (check your return policy for an ETA).

When initiating your Amazon return, you may be required to select a drop-off location, such as Whole Foods, Kohl's, UPS, or an Amazon return center.

While we can return to any location, UPS is best, so we recommend choosing a UPS drop-off when requesting your QR code from Amazon.

We'll make sure your return gets to the right place no matter what!

Still have questions? We'd be happy to walk you through it. Just give us a call at 801-890-2897.

We'll pick up all your extra cardboard too—we reuse and recycle them all! Just select "Cardboard boxes" when scheduling your pickup.

We ask that cardboard pickups are limited to 5 boxes total, one of which can be oversized (longer than 4 feet on any side).

If you have more boxes than this, or your boxes are larger, get in touch and we'll do our best to accomodate you!

No need to break down your boxes. Just be sure they're free of trash and packing materials.

When scheduling a return or donation pickup, you'll be asked for an item description. This information helps us identify and process your item(s).

The best details to provide here include:

• Item type
• Color
• Size (if clothing)
• Where it was purchased (if returning)

Here's an example of a great item description:

• "Black size 6 leggings from Lululemon"

Here's an example of a not-so-good item description:

• "Clothes from Lululemon"

If you're scheduling multiple items for pickup, be sure to include specific descriptions of each. This helps us identify how many items you're returning/donating and ensure each is accounted for when we pick up and process them.

Anything that won't fit in the back of an SUV is considered an oversized item.

We ask that you limit oversized items to one per pickup, keep them under 50 lbs., and make sure a single person can reasonably lift them.

If you have questions about a specific item or want us to take something that falls outside these parameters, contact us directly.

Nope! You can always schedule returns on a pay-as-you-go basis. You'll pay only $1 for your first pickup, then $8 for each pickup after that.

You can return or donate multiple items in a single pickup. These can be different purchases from different retailers (note that each purchase should have its own return label or receipt).

Oops currently picks up returns, donations, and cardboard boxes in the greater Salt Lake City and Phoenix metropolitan areas. We service Utah's Wasatch Front, including Salt Lake County, Utah County, Davis County, and Summit County, as well as part of Maricopa County in Arizona.

Before we can complete your return pickup, you'll need to provide a return label, QR code, or receipt for your purchase.

You can usually find these by looking up your order status or logging into your account on the retailer's website.

If you lose your receipt or have trouble accessing your order history, contact your retailer directly. They should be able to help you out and provide replacements if needed.

Nope! The beauty of Oops is that you never need a box or printed label.

We'll bring you a reusable bag at the time of your first pickup, so you can put everything in there moving forward. If you don't have an Oops bag yet, just place all your pickup items together on your porch.

When leaving your items out, be sure to include all related parts and accessories. If an item has multiple parts (for instance, an electronic device that comes with a separate charger), clearly group or attach these so we know they should all go back together.

If you have specific questions about your pickup, get in touch and we'll help you out.

You'll get an email after your return is processed and out of our hands. Once the original retailer receives it, they'll handle your refund.

You can always check the status of your return in your account dashboard.

On the day of your pickup, you'll get text message updates when your driver is on the way, along with a planned ETA and a link to track your driver.

Absolutely. If your return window is closing and you need to expedite return shipping or drop-off, just contact us after scheduling your pickup and we'll be sure to process your return right away.

Tip: It's always best to return your items sooner rather than later to allow for shipping time and return processing on the part of the original retailer.

This will depend on the retailer, so check your return policy for details. Some merchants offer store credit for purchases returned after the return window has closed. Others may not accept your return at all.

We'll always do our best to help you get your money back, but if we do end up with an unreturnable item, we'll contact you directly to let you know your options. This often includes bringing the item(s) back to you or donating them on your behalf.

We also host one-time donation drives (we collected more than 620 lbs. of food for Utah Food Bank over the holidays!). Community impact is important to us, so we're continuing to develop partnerships with local nonprofits that make a difference.

• Car seats
• Tires
• Batteries
• Weapons and ammunition

• Medications and prescription drugs
• Food items (unless part of a food drive)
• Cleaning products and other chemicals

If you have a monthly or annual plan, all you need to pay is your membership fee. As an Oops member, you get unlimited pickups of all your returns, donations, and cardboard recycling.

You can also choose to pay per pickup, in which case, you'd pay $1 for your first pickup and $8 for each subsequent pickup. Our rates are the same for all pickup types, including donations.

When we stop by to complete your first pickup, we'll bring you a blue reusable Oops bag. You can put all your returns in donations in there moving forward.

The bag is great for a couple reasons. It helps protect your items from inclement weather and keeps everything together so our drivers know exactly what to pick up.

That way, you'll never have to worry about returns and donations getting mixed up with deliveries or anything else on your porch (this doesn't happen often, but we want to bring you that extra peace of mind!).

When we come by for your pickup, we'll take your full bag and replace it with a new one that you can use for next time.
