UPS FAQ
Do I need a box or label for my Amazon return?
For most Amazon returns, no. Start the return in the Amazon app, pick a UPS drop-off option and show us the QR code. We pack and label it.
What time is the last UPS pickup?
UPS picks up from every LJ HUB store late afternoon on weekdays. Bring it before 4 PM to ship the same day; ask the store for today’s exact cut-off. Saturday drop-offs ship Monday.
Can I ship UPS to a P.O. Box?
UPS doesn’t deliver to P.O. Boxes in the U.S. Use a street address, or ask us about UPS SurePost which hands off to USPS.
How much is UPS Ground?
Price depends on weight, box size, destination and speed. A small 2 lb box from Queens to Florida is usually around $12–18 with Ground; we give you the exact price before you pay. Request a quote or walk in.
Is my package insured?
Every UPS shipment includes $100 of declared value at no charge. You can declare a higher value for a small fee; keep your receipt.
Can I track it?
Yes. We text or email you the tracking number, and you can follow it on our Tracking page.
What can’t be shipped?
Cash, lithium batteries shipped loose, aerosols and flammables, perfume by air, alcohol (without a license), firearms, perishables without special packaging, and anything illegal to possess at the destination. Phones and laptops are fine when the battery is installed in the device. Ask us if you’re not sure.
