Kohl’s announced on Tuesday that it will accept Amazon returns at 82 of its locations in and around Los Angeles and Chicago starting next month. According to Business Insider, there will be parking spots near store entrances designated for people coming to return Amazon goods.

Once you hand over a return, Kohl’s will then package and transport the item to Amazon’s return centers, free of charge. This is slightly easier than returning through USPS or UPS, as you won’t need to tape up your own cardboard box.

The move is Kohl’s allying itself with the e-commerce giant as analysts fear that Amazon will swallow up retail stores, especially after it made a successful transition into the groceries industry with the Whole Foods acquisition. Earlier this month, Kohl’s also announced that it would sell the Amazon Echo and other devices at 10 of its stores in Los Angeles and Chicago.
