Last day discs will be shipped out

On April 18, we announced that after 25 years of shipping DVDs, this will be our final season, and we’ll ship our last disc on September 29, 2023.

Charges for unreturned discs

You won't be charged for any unreturned discs and can enjoy them for as long as you like. If you do want to return any discs, we'll continue to accept them until October 27, 2023.

Purchasing discs from DVD.com

We are unable to sell discs from our rental inventory.

Lost disc shipment or issue

Why is Netflix DVD closing?

After an incredible 25 year run, we’ve made the difficult decision to wind down at the end of September. Our goal has always been to provide the best service for our members, but as the DVD business continues to shrink, that’s going to become increasingly difficult. Making 2023 our final season allows us to maintain our quality of service through the last day and go out on a high note.
