Receiving

If you use our InPost App, your pick-up information will be available there. Go to ‘Parcel Tracking’ and tab the ‘Pick up’ tab to see your parcel deets. You will also receive an email with your collection code so make sure you check your spam or junk mail if you don’t see anything from us.  

If you don’t use our app, you will receive an email and a text from us with your collection code. We send the SMS to the phone number you gave to the retailer or marketplace, so it’s always a good idea to check your account details are up to date. If you haven’t received an email, make sure you check your spam or junk mail folders.  

You've got three days to grab your parcel. We'll send it back to the seller if it's not collected in time. We’ll send you a reminder when there are 24 hours left.

Any eligible refunds will be retailer-dependent.

If your parcel hasn’t updated on tracking for 48 hours, have no fear. Occasionally they can get a little bit delayed – but we usually get things moving again within 24 hours. If there’s been no update for 72 hours, then feel free to get in touch with our Customer Care team and they’ll do some digging.

First thing’s first, report it to the store or marketplace you bought it from. They’ll be able to send you a refund, if you’re entitled to one. We’re happy to help and look into things for you, too – but you’ll need to report it to the store or marketplace first, so they can launch an investigation with us.

There are two possible reasons:

  • The recipient did not collect the parcel in time (and it expired)
  • The parcel couldn’t be delivered to the InPost Locker or Shop

Yes, you can! When you track your parcels in the app, you can now request delivery to an Easy Access compartment. We can’t promise it’ll end up in a lower compartment, but we’ll do our best to make it happen.

We’ll send your collection instructions via our app and by email when your parcel arrives in the locker. Keep an eye out for this, as you won’t find them on the Vinted app. To pick it you can show your QR code or give them the tracking number and collection code. 

You have 3 days to pick up your parcel once it’s delivered. We’ll send you a reminder when there are 24 hours left – and send it back to the seller if it’s not collected on time. 

The locker you have chosen was full so we couldn't deliver your parcel there. Don't worry, we've sent it to a different location to get it to you ASAP. We'll keep you posted, so check your emails for updates. New locations will always be within 1km (1000m) of the original point.

Sadly not. If you won't be able to collect your parcel, then we recommend sharing the collection code with a friend or family member (that’s what little brothers are for, right?) so they can pick it up for you.

It’s best to get in touch directly with the retailer or marketplace to find out if you can get your money back. We won’t be able to help with that side of things.

Returning

Returns parcels should be back with the retailer within 5 working days, safe and sound. But some stores may take a little bit longer to let you know they’ve got it and process your return. Feel free to get in touch with them if you’ve got any questions about your refund.

 

Sending

If you're sending a parcel to an InPost Locker or Shop then it should arrive within 3 working days. If you're sending a parcel to a home address then it should arrive within 4 working days. You can keep an eye on your parcel's journey using our handy tracking page.

 

Collecting

Delivery time will vary depending on which store you've bought from. Keep tabs on your parcel's progress by downloading the app.

We work with our partners Royal Mail and Yodel to deliver to home addresses, so the label you either print or receive will have their logo on it. 

Parcels going to home addresses must be dropped at an InPost Locker or Shop.
