  • If your purchase was through a Toolstation supplier, reach out to Toolstation's contact centre to process a refund.
  • Customer service will verify the purchase completion date (which must have taken place in the previous 30 days).

Returns to Toolstation Suppliers

The company has unique policy procedures if you purchase from one of its partner suppliers.

  1. If you buy from a Toolstation partner, the 30-day policy is still valid. Only you must return items to that supplier, not a branch or through Toolstation's customer centre. Be sure you know the policy for that supplier. Some won't take back a product that's been used.
  2. You can contact Toolstation's customer service team and arrange the return and refund. The service comes with a £9 fixed fee (taken from the refund).
  3. If you paid using cash, purchases will need to be returned to a branch. If purchased from a supplier, Toolstation will notify the supplier. The supplier will process the refund and provide a cash refund at the branch.

The store will process a refund within 14 days of the request.
