How to Return Solar Lights and Obtain a Dangerous Goods Label

When returning solar lights, it is essential to follow specific guidelines to ensure compliance with shipping regulations. This article outlines the steps required, including the need for a "Dangerous Goods" label and how to obtain one if you do not have a printer.

Why is a Dangerous Goods Label Required?

Solar lights often contain components, such as batteries, that are classified as dangerous goods. To comply with shipping regulations, a "Dangerous Goods" label must be affixed to the parcel before returning it. This label ensures that the package is handled appropriately during transit.

What If You Don’t Have a Printer?

If you do not have access to a printer, you can request Hoselink mail a "Dangerous Goods" label to you. Note that postal services, such as Australia Post, cannot print this label for you.

Additional Notes

  • Always use the pre-paid return label provided by the company in addition to the "Dangerous Goods" label.

  • Contact the company’s customer support team if you need assistance with obtaining the label or have questions about the return process.

Steps to Return Solar Lights

  1. Prepare the Parcel: Ensure the solar lights are securely packaged to prevent damage during transit.

  2. Print the Dangerous Goods Label: If you have access to a printer, download and print the "Dangerous Goods" label provided by the company.

  3. Affix the Label: Attach the printed label to the parcel in a visible location.
