Returning Company Issued Equipment

Card image cap

Location: North Carolina. I work for a bank and was let go last month. I had already been on leave and was expecting to be let go so when they summoned me to a branch 45 minutes away I already had a feeling what was up. I asked to move the meeting to a branch closer to me and they said no.

I returned my keys but my company laptop and cell phone were at home. I have an email where I asked for shipping materials and a prepaid shipping label to return the items and she agreed. What I actually received was a beat up box with a thing of bubble wrap and no shipping label.

They are now refusing to give me a shipping label, saying one was included in the box (it wasnt) and the company lawyer is threatening to send the sheriff to my house if I dont drive somewhere to return them.

I dont see how I could get in any trouble when I have emails where I asked for specific items and the HR director agreed to send them. Should I drop it and just drive somewhere to return them or continue asking for a shipping label. I dont feel I should be made to drive anywhere on my dime for their convenience.
