Why Don’t You Offer Free Returns?

Why Don’t You Offer Free Returns?

1. Introduction
At Home & Kids Co., we’re dedicated to bringing you stylish, high-quality items at prices well below the market average—often 40–60% lower. While many brands build “free returns” into their higher costs, we focus on keeping our everyday pricing as low as possible. Below, we explain the reasons behind our no free returns policy and how it benefits you in the long run.

2. True vs. “Free” Costs

  • Hidden Expenses – Offering free returns often means companies raise their prices to cover shipping and restocking fees.
  • Value Over Markups – By not including those fees in our prices, we’re able to maintain a lower-cost model, so you pay for the product itself—not the return option most shoppers never use.

3. Environmental Impact

  • Less Waste & Emissions – Limiting returns helps reduce the carbon footprint that comes with transporting items back and forth.
  • Reduced Disposal – Returned items can be damaged in transit and end up in landfills. Our approach encourages more mindful purchasing and fewer needless shipments.

4. Practical Alternatives

  • Partial Refunds or Local Fixes – If your order arrives with minor issues, we can often coordinate local repairs or issue a partial refund rather than shipping the product back.
  • Comprehensive Product Details – We provide thorough descriptions, photos, and measurements so you can make an informed decision before buying. Our Customer Care team is also happy to help answer questions.

5. Keeping Prices Low
By not offering free returns, we avoid adding extra operational and shipping costs to our overhead. That means we can keep prices dramatically lower than those of our competitors—allowing you to enjoy premium products at a fraction of their usual cost.

6. Need Assistance?
