Packaging
- Pick a strong box no larger than 42cm*30cm*9cm. If your box is larger, please advise our customer service, extra courier charges may apply. As a general guideline, use a box with at least a 1″ air gap between the laptop and the box on the top, bottom and sides of your laptop. There should be no tears or damage on the box. If you are using a box used to ship something previously, please remove/black out all labels so there is no confusion as to where the package is going/should be shipped to. Make sure the box weight is less than 3kg; please notify our staff if your box is more than 3kg, extra courier charges apply.
- Fill air gap with padding to prevent damage. I.e. bubble wrap, or similar protective material. The packing material should fill the entire air gap to reduce movement during transit.
- Please send us the whole laptop including the battery but you DO NOT need to send us the AC adapter/charger. Just make sure the laptop is fully chargedso we can turn on the computer to see if the new screen lights up OK.
- Also pack a copy of your repair request in the box so that we can easily identify your laptop when it is received.
- After receiving courier label/coupon. Seal box with thick tape and stick shipping label on top of the box where it will be scanned by the courier staff.
- Once your job is done and payment confirmation received, we will ship the item back to you in the same box using your existing packing materials where possible.
If the above packing instructions are not followed, you will be responsible for any damages/cost incurred. Packaging on arrival becomes the property of LAPTOP SCREEN REPLACE to recycle or dispose of as we see fit.

If you decide to cancel the courier service within 24 hours of your scheduled pickup time you will be liable to pay for the courier fees for that booking and any additional labour charges associated with the cancellation of your booking.
Loss/Damage in Transit.
