GearHaven provides free returns and exchanges within 30 days so you can correct an order that is not right for your repair, workspace, installation, or household project.
Because tools and home repair products can vary in size, weight, packaging, accessories, and shipping requirements, we ask customers to begin with our support team before mailing anything back. This allows us to confirm the correct return instructions for the specific order and avoid unnecessary delays.
Protected
Keep the product, included accessories, manuals, loose parts, and available packaging together while the request is being handled.
Supported
Our customer support team is available 24/7 if the item arrived damaged, appears incomplete, or you are unsure how to proceed.
Before You Send Anything
Start with the order, not the box.
Contact our support team before shipping a return. Return routing can depend on the order, item, and handling requirements, so the correct instructions should be confirmed first.

Request Tell us whether you want to return the item or exchange it for another available option.
Condition Let us know whether the item is unused, opened, installed, tested, damaged, incomplete, or otherwise different from what you expected.
Contents Keep included accessories, hardware, manuals, bits, cases, attachments, and other supplied pieces together whenever reasonably possible.
Routing Follow the return instructions provided by GearHaven rather than mailing the parcel to an address without confirmation.

- Follow the return routing and shipment instructions supplied by GearHaven.

Product Handling Guide
Return preparation by product type.
Different repair products need different handling. The goal is always the same: send the item back cleanly, safely, and with its included pieces organized.
Hand Tools
Hammers & Pliers
Protect metal heads, jaws, handles, and surrounding packaging so heavy parts cannot move freely or puncture the shipping box.
Driver Tools
Screwdriver Sets
Keep driver handles, bits, extensions, holders, cases, and loose accessories together before repacking the set.
Power Tools
Drills
Remove loose accessories from the chuck where appropriate and keep included batteries, chargers, handles, bits, or cases organized according to the return instructions.
Power Tools
Grinders
Ensure the tool has stopped completely, separate or protect loose accessories as appropriate, and secure guards and included parts for transit.
Measuring
Tape Measures
Retract the blade fully and protect the case and belt hardware from unnecessary impact during shipment.
Fastening
Anchors
Keep loose anchors, screws, washers, or other supplied fastening pieces contained so the set can be identified and handled correctly.
Door Hardware
Hinges & Locks
Keep screws, strike plates, keys, mounting hardware, and other included pieces with the primary component whenever available.
Plumbing
Faucets
Remove residual water where practical and package fittings, mounting hardware, hoses, and accessories so they remain protected.

Installed electrical products should be safely de-energized and removed only when appropriate. Describe installation or removal conditions before return.
Electrical
Switches
