Care Packages Return Policy
If you experience any problems with your order, please contact us within seven days of delivery and appropriate measures will be taken to resolve your concerns.
Undeliverable Packages
We make every attempt to arrange suitable delivery dates and times for off-campus recipients. After arranging delivery conditions, our carriers will make one attempt to deliver the package. If the recipient is not available and there is not a secure location to leave the package, the package will be deemed undeliverable. If the delivery address or phone number provided by the sender is incorrect, or if our attempts to contact the recipient are unsuccessful, the package will also be deemed undeliverable.
Undeliverable packages are held for 7 business days following the delivery date. During that time we contact the recipient and inform them that their package is ready for in-store pickup. We will also notify the sender of the delivery delay. If after 7 business days the package has not been claimed, we will cancel your order and issue a refund to your credit card. All cancelled orders are subject to a 35% restocking fee.
Gopher Express does not guarantee delivery in every instance and reserves the right to reject any order in the exercise of its reasonable discretion. Gopher Express shall not be liable for incidental, special, or indirect damages of any kind arising out of this order. Customer agrees that the maximum liability of Gopher Express for any direct damages arising out of this order shall not exceed the amount of the order itself.
