RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK – Shoppers want to return merchandise bought online without going back to a store or to the post office have a new choice in the RTP area. ReturnQueen, a free pick up and return service for shoppers wanting to send back purchases, has expanded to the Triangle.
The company announced the addition of its sixth logistics facility known as a ReturnHouse will be at an unspecified location in the Triangle region. It launched services earlier this month.
