Items that can't be shipped
Our delivery partners Evri and DPD maintain their own lists of prohibited items, which are updated independently of Quibly. As a seller, it's your responsibility to check that any item you're shipping is accepted by our carriers before listing.
Always check the carrier websites directly before listing:
- Evri: www.evri.com/send/what-i-can-and-cannot-send
- DPD: www.send.dpd.co.uk/products-and-services/prohibited-items
Quibly is not responsible for listings that are removed or shipments that are rejected due to carrier restrictions.
For items that are permitted on the platform but can’t be shipped by our delivery partners, sellers will have to offer collection as the only fulfillment option during listing.
What happens if you list a prohibited item
Listings that violate our prohibited items policy will be removed. A single violation may result in account suspension. If you're unsure whether an item is allowed, contact our support team before listing.
The bottom line
Quibly welcomes a huge range of items across all categories. The main things to avoid are counterfeits, weapons, illegal substances, explicit content and alcohol. Check the carrier websites for their prohibited items before listing delivery items. Every listing is automatically checked before going live and anything flagged is reviewed by our team.
