Customers General Conditions
On this webpage (and on the documents referred thereinto) you will find the terms and conditions of the service (“T&C“) that apply to the services (i “Services“) we offer through the website https://www.weitless.com/ or our mobile applications (each named “Sale Channel“).
Please read carefully these T&C before booking any Service on our Sale Channels.
If you have any question on the T&C, please get in touch with us before booking at info@weitless.com.
If you book a Service on the Sale Channels for purposes which can be regarded as being outside your trade or profession, you have specific rights which are not in any way overridden by the T&C. To view your rights please refer to Legislative Decree of 6 September 2005, n0. 206 (“Consumer Code“). Creating your Weitless account, you accept the T&C.
1. Overview
Weitless is a service platform managed by Weitless s.r.l. (Fiscal code 06998570482) registered office in Florence, via Pier Capponi no. 69. You can get in touch with us at info@weitless.com, certified email weitlesssrl@pec.it, or +39 3281166881.
2. Purpose
Weitless frees you up from the weight of your luggage and gifts you the extra time you need. Thanks to our Services you will be able to leave your luggage to our personnel or at your accommodation(“Accommodation“) and find it back at the time and place of your preference.
3. Account
To book our Services through the Sale Channels, you will be asked to create an account (“Account”), providing your personal data, including your card details. We will send you a password to access your account for the first time (thereafter you will be able to change your password).
It is your responsibility to keep your Account credentials secret and prevent others from using them. If someone else makes a booking from our Account, you will be held personally responsible for the payment of the Services booked.
You can close your Account at any time through the dedicated section on our Website or getting in touch with us.
We reserve the right to limit the access to your Account or to shut it down if we believe your Account is being used by someone else or if – in our opinion – you are not using it in compliance with the T&C (e.g. misbehaving with our personnel or requesting refunds when the related conditions are lacking).
4. Bookings
When you place a booking (“Booking”), you will be requested to indicate how many pieces of luggage and the day and the place where you want our personnel to collect them. The Booking is deemed as a contractual proposal. The agreement relating to the Service you have booked will be entered into upon acceptance by Weitless, which will consist in a confirmation (“Confirmation”) sent via email and via SMS to the contact details you will have communicated to us. Upon Confirmation of the Booking, you will receive a booking number (PNR), which you can use to verify the state of delivery of your luggage. You are solely responsible of the payment of all Services booked through your Account, and the other obligations of the T&C, even if booked by someone else.
5. Luggage Collection by Weitless
QWhen you place a Booking, you will be able to choose between a same-day and a planned Service.
With the same-day Service you can book the delivery for the same day you place your Booking and your luggage is collected. You will be requested to indicate the time starting from which your luggage will be available for collection (between 9AM and 4PM). Upon booking, we will tell you the estimated collection time, but we will aim at collecting your luggage ASAP; this means that your luggage should be available for collection as soon as you place the Booking.
With the planned Service you can book the delivery for a different day from that of your Booking. You can also request collection of your luggage for a few days (max 3, according to the options available upon booking) before delivery. In this case, your luggage will be collected between 9AM and 8PM.
Upon placing a Booking, you will receive a code for each piece of luggage to be collected. Please apply such code(s) on each piece of luggage, in order for our personnel to recognise them.
Once we will have collected your luggage, you will receive a dedicated communication to your contacts.
Until collection is completed, Weitless shall not be held responsible for your luggage and you will therefore be responsible for the custody and the consigning thereof to our personnel pursuant to the T&C even if you decide to leave your luggage with third parties, including the personnel of your Accommodation. With the Confirmation, we will let you know whether, upon collection, our personnel have found defects or damages on your luggage. We shall not be held in any way responsible of such damages.
In any case, if we cause any damage to your luggage, if you prove the existence and the quantum of the damage, we will compensate you up until the sum of Euros 500 (fivehundred/00).
Unfortunately, notwithstanding our best efforts, elements like traffic and adverse weather conditions might prevent us from collecting your luggage according to the estimated time. If our personnel is behind schedule of more than 15 (fifteen) minutes and we have not yet told you that you can cancel your booking, we will increase our efforts to collect your luggage ASAP, also getting in touch with you to favour – when possible – the collection in a different location of your choice, unless you have caused the delay (e.g., without any limitation, because you have told us the wrong Accommodation).
We will attempt collection at the location you communicate to us upon placing your Booking. If you need to change location thereafter, we might be able to accommodate your needs only if the new location is in the same area as the original one and our personnel are able to divert as requested in accordance with their collection and delivery plan. If we cannot change the collection location, you will be entitled to annul your Booking, within the limits laid down by Art. 6 of these T&C.
You will be charged the full price of the Service if the failed collection is attributable to you for any reason. The reasons for which you may be held responsible include (as mere examples), but are not limited to, the case where you are not present at the collection location and/or the personnel of your Accommodation is not present/available for collection and do not pick your phone up when our personnel call you or you do pick up but are unable to let your luggage be collected within the next 15 (fifteen) minutes.
6. Delivery of your luggage by Weitless
Upon placing your Booking, you will be requested to indicate the day and the time you want our personnel to deliver your luggage. Such a time limit is in Weitless’ favour, as depositary of your luggage.
Please bear in mind that, in case of same-day Service, we will be able to deliver your luggage not earlier than 4 hours after the starting time of your availability for collection. In case of planned Service, we will be able to deliver your luggage not earlier than 2 hours after the starting time of your availability for collection. Please ensure to have enough time before your train or flight.
In case the date of delivery is different from that of placing the Booking, the price of the Service will include also a daily sum for the deposit amounting to Euros 10 per day (or part thereof).
Unfortunately, notwithstanding our best efforts, elements like traffic and adverse weather conditions might prevent us from delivering your luggage at the indicated time. In that case, we will get in touch with you and make our best efforts to deliver your luggage before the time of departure of your train or flight. If this is not possible, we will dispatch your luggage over at the location you indicate to us, bearing the related cost, unless you have caused the delay (e.g., without any limitation, because you were not present for the delivery).
We will attempt delivery at the time and place you indicate upon placing your Booking and we will advise when your luggage will have arrived. In total, we will wait for maximum 15 (fifteen) minutes after the scheduled time of delivery. In case of delay, please let us know at assistenza@weitless.com in advance of the time indicated upon placing your Booking. If you are not present at the indicated time, we will try to get in touch with you. You can ask us to wait for you further and, in this case, Weitless can accept or not your request at its discretion (Weitless has the right not to accept your request). If yes, we will wait 15 minutes further and the cost will be Euro 15 (fifteen). You can repeat this request, up to total three times (maximum delay of 45 minutes and maximum cost of Euro 45). If you are not present at the indicated time, we will try to get in touch with you. In case you do not pick your phone up when our personnel call you and/or you do pick up but then are unable to let your luggage be delivered within the next 10 (ten) minutes and/or in case you do not ask us to wait or we cannot wait for you, we will bring your luggage in our storage room, sending you a written notice thereof.
With the same notice, we will inform you that you can:
- request a second delivery, according to the availability of our personnel, paying the related price (in addition to that already paid for the Service);
- request your luggage to be dispatched via mail to the address you provide; upon so requesting, you shall pay the costs of dispatch, further to a penalty fair of Euros 50.00 (fifty).
In case you do not choose either of the options above, or in case even the second delivery fails for your fault, you will be charged the daily cost of Euros 10 (ten) for the deposit of your luggage, up to 60 (sixty) days.
Once such a time limit has elapsed, Weitless will be entitled to keep your luggage and sell it pursuant to Art. 2756, paragraph 3, of the Civil Code to discharge your debt.
7. Booking modification and cancellation
You can modify your Booking, as per these conditions:
- You can postpone the luggage Collection, not later than 4 hours before the time scheduled with your Booking (in any case, not later than 9 p.m. of the day before);
- You can postpone the luggage Collection, not later than 4 hours before the time scheduled with your Booking (in any case, not later than 9 p.m. of the day before);
Out of these cases, you cannot modify your Booking and you will have to cancel it (as below described) and proceed with a new booking.
It is possible to cancel a Booking free of charge in these two cases:

- by and not later than midnight of the day before collection, in case of planned Service.
In all other cases of Booking cancellation, you will be charged the full price of the Service.

In case of cancellation after the time limits above have expired, you will be charged the full price of the Service booked.
Weitless is entitled to inform you that your Booking has been cancelled at any time prior to collection. You will not be charged for your Booking if this is cancelled by us and we will refund any payment already made to the same payment method you have used to pay your Booking.
