To create a return shipment follow the steps below:
- Once logged in select the Shipping tab at the top. In the area at the left select Create a Shipment, then select Create a Return.
- On this page select or enter a Return From address (the original recipient address) from the drop-down list or an external address book (if available). Confirm the Bill To information. To make changes select Edit.
- For each return package select the type of packaging from the drop-down list (for example, packaging provided by UPS, UPS Letter, your packaging or other) and enter Weight. Confirm, write over or enter a Merchandise Description using specific
language, such as annual reports (documents) or 9mm steel screws (non-documents). Avoid general terms such as documents, printed material and samples. If needed enter a Declared Value. Some trans-border returns could require a Merchandise Description (for example, textiles, machine parts, etc.). For documents and similar materials check Documents of No Commercial Value.
- Select the Return Service you want to use from the drop-down list. When selecting a return service you have the option of billing yourself, the person or company returning the package or a third party. Note: In some countries multi-piece return shipments are allowed. In those countries a drop list appears on the page allowing the sender to select up to 20 packages for the return shipment. Multi-piece returns are not allowed in the U.S. and Puerto Rico.
- Reference Number 1 displays your default preference or you can fill in the field, at your option. The reference number on this page helps you and your company track your return shipment using a purchase order number, invoice number, department number or any value (combination of words and numbers) your company requires for its internal accounting.
- Confirm the Payment Information which displays your default payment methods in the drop-down menu. You may also enter another UPS Account Number or credit card.
- To encode the reference number on your shipping label select the checkbox. You can also choose to send an E-Mail Return Notification. When the return package enters the UPS system an e-mail notice will be sent to the recipients you have indicated.
