Guide to returning your books by Freepost

1) Using the portal generate a one-off label: Generate Return Label

2) Please carefully package any University of Warwick Library items into one parcel. We are unable to cover the costs of the packaging, just the postage cost.

3) Drop off the parcel at your nearest Collect + point. Find your nearest store.

Here is some information to help you pack your parcel(s):

• Weight: up to 10kgs per parcel

• Maximum dimension: 60cm x 50cm x 50cm

• If you have a lot of books you are welcome to send them in multiple parcels

We appreciate you may not have scales to guide you in packing your books so the following information may help:

A pile of 7 paperback and hardback books weighs around 5kg. So, depending on size and the packing materials you have available you may be able to fit up to 10 books in a single parcel. If you need to send your books in multiple parcels please enter your email address more than once to the portal to download different labels to attach to each of your parcels.

If you do not have access to a printer please call us on 024 76 522026 for assistance.

If you have any issues with the service, including the service rejecting the size or weight of the parcel, please contact library@warwick.ac.uk.
