Returning a Telework catalog item? See the specific telework items returns process here.

Stocked items (non-customized products) can generally be returned within 30 days of receipt in their original packaging. Some of our suppliers have specific requirements around returns. For details, see the Supplier Information page.

Once you’ve determined that the supplier will accept the return, please follow these four steps:
