If your retailer uses USPS Label Broker, yes — show the QR code at the counter and they print it free.

Return window overview

USPS doesn't set return windows — retailers do. USPS options include Label Broker (they print for you), carrier pickup from your mailbox, and Post Office drop-off.

Receipt rules

Ask for an acceptance scan and receipt at the counter — proof the package entered the mail system.
Blue-box and mailbox pickups may not scan for a day or more; get a counter receipt for valuable items.

Label rules and drop-off options

USPS Label Broker: some retailers give a QR code that the Post Office prints for you — no printer needed.
Free package pickup from your mailbox can be scheduled online for prepaid returns.
Drop-off option: Post Office counter (receipt + acceptance scan)
Drop-off option: Blue collection boxes
Drop-off option: Carrier pickup from your address
Drop-off option: Label Broker QR printing at the counter

Refund timeline by payment method

N/A

Refund timing is set by the retailer once they receive the return.

Common denial reasons

Prohibited items (lithium batteries in some cases, hazmat)
Label expired

Refund delayed playbook

If tracking shows no acceptance scan, the retailer may not consider it shipped — a counter receipt fixes this next time.
Contact the retailer with tracking; they can open a missing mail search with USPS.
