To schedule a return, customers can select which items they are returning from Walmart's website or app, choose a return pickup and appointment date, pack up the items, affix a provided label and wait for a pickup.

Retail rival Target has a similar policy for returning items delivered via Estes Forwarding Worldwide or FedExFreight. However, customers have to contact Target.com Guest Services to schedule a return.

Walmart's Carrier Pickup by FedEx is a free service that will continue beyond the holidays.
