Amazon and Asda have today announced that Amazon customers can now take advantage of parcel pickup and label-free, box-free returns at more than 700 Asda stores. Just in time for the festive season, eligible Amazon orders can be picked up in most Asda stores across the UK, with more locations to be added throughout the coming months. The new pickup and return options will make shopping at eligible Asda stores even more convenient for customers, who will now be able to do their weekly shopping and parcel collection or returns in one trip.
The partnership also reduces the need for additional shipping boxes, with customers able to simply return the item in the original manufacturer’s packaging. Thank you to all our customers and colleagues, whose generous support has helped us raise £3.16 million for this year's @BBCCiN appeal.
Money raised by Asda, will support the Fuelling Potential campaign to help combat holiday hunger. pic.twitter.
