        4.  
      4. How to Use Quick Drop:
        Step 1: Prepare your return package in accordance with the Quick Drop requirements set out in Section 3 above.

        Step 2: Bring your return package to a Canada Post street letter box.

        Step 3: Open Quick Drop through the Canada Post App and scan the barcode on your Canada Post returns label when prompted. Alternatively, you may manually enter the barcode number on your Canada Post returns label.
        The App will indicate when your return package information has been successfully scanned/entered, and will provide you with the following summary information (the “Summary Information”): (1) your username, (2) tracking number, (3) date and time you scanned/manually entered the return package information, and (4) checkbox (the “Confirmation Checkbox”) for you to confirm you have dropped the item into a Canada Post street letter box.

        Step 4: Review the Summary Information to ensure it is correct. If correct, drop your return package into the Canada Post street letter box and click the Confirmation Checkbox.
        If the Summary Information is not correct, do not click the Confirmation Checkbox. Correct the inaccurate information before clicking the Confirmation Checkbox.

        Step 5: Once you have clicked the Confirmation Checkbox and dropped the return package into the Canada Post street letter box, click “Submit”. Clicking “Submit” does not mean your item was received by Canada Post. Canada Post’s receipt and acceptance of the return package is only evidenced by the first item level scan of the package completed by Canada Post.
        5.  
      5. Acknowledgement Email and Tracking Information. After successfully completing the steps set out in Section 4 above and clicking “Submit,” you will receive an acknowledgement email from Canada Post. This email will be sent to the email address contained in your App profile. It is solely your responsibility to ensure this and all other information contained in your App profile is complete and accurate. The acknowledgement email does not indicate receipt of your return package by Canada Post. Canada Post’s receipt and acceptance of the return package is only evidenced by the first item level scan of the package completed by Canada Post.

        The acknowledgement email will contain the following information:
        Scan submission Date and Time
        Tracking PIN

        If you have subscribed to Canada Post’s automatic tracking feature, the tracking number for your return package will automatically be added to your Canada Post track list. In addition, your acknowledgement email will contain the following additional information: See the automatic tracking terms and conditions for details regarding the automatic tracking feature.
        6.  
      6. Acknowledgement Email Not Evidence of Acceptance by Canada Post. The acknowledgement email does not indicate receipt of your return package by Canada Post. No return package that would otherwise be eligible for Canada Post’s standard loss, damage or delay claims will be eligible for such claims without an item level scan evidencing acceptance by Canada Post.

        Neither the Quick Drop screen, nor the acknowledgement email indicate receipt or acceptance of the return package by Canada Post. Canada Post’s receipt and acceptance of the return package is only evidenced by the first item level scan of the package completed by Canada Post.
        7.  
      7. Failure to Comply with Terms and Conditions. Any packaged return that fails to comply with these Terms and Conditions may be returned to sender or otherwise not delivered. Further, you may be personally liable; see Section 9 and Section 12 for details.
        8.  
      8. Fees. Quick Drop is offered free of charge. Canada Post shipping fees are charged separately, and are not included as part of the free Quick Drop feature.
        9.  
      9. Responsibility/Liability for Returned Items. You are responsible and liable for all your packages. Without limiting anything contained in these Terms and Conditions, you agree not to drop any items into any Canada Post street letterbox that could be considered non-mailable matter (also referred to as “prohibited items”) or controlled items. Refer to our “Restrictions on personal shipping” page and the Canada Postal Guide at canadapost.ca/postalguide under Non-mailable matter for details.

      12. Indemnity. You will indemnify the Canada Post Parties against all claims, demands, damages, losses, fines, expenses (including all legal fees and costs) and/or any other types of liability (individually and collectively, the “Claims”) to the extent the Claim is caused by: (1) your breach of the Terms and Conditions, and/or (2) your use and/or attempted use of the Quick Drop feature. We may, in our sole discretion, assume the exclusive defence and control of any Claim otherwise subject to this indemnification by you. Even if we assume the defence of a Claim you will remain responsible for the payment of the Claim, and you will cooperate as fully as reasonably required by us in the defence of any Claim.

      15. Amendments. We may change these Terms and Conditions at any time without notice. It is your responsibility to check this website regularly for changes.
