As I understand it, the law says they are yours. You have made every reasonable attempt to return them and they apparently don't want them back. Keep them, sell them, or do with them whatever you like.

In the several Costcos that I have frequented, their customer service as been excellent. But, not os much over the telephone. I would bet that if you went into the store, they'd help you out very quickly.
I found what you said riveting.

You will probably have the best luck contacting your local stores general manager over phone. Tell her to explain that the online delivery people have burdened her with unwanted heavy items she can’t move herself.

As I posted in another service related issue, make sure to list-out the problems you had with them, make sure to include names, dates and times and address it to the store manager. Keep it simple, use bullet-points; may also find out who the district/regional manager is also. As a member, they should be moving mountains to make things right but, sometimes there's some 'lost in translation' issue between various segments of the business. I thought Costco did their own deliveries, perhaps they contract out for certain items and the level of service isn't up to snuff.
Who knows, maybe they've had issues in this area in the past and your experience is the straw that breaks the camels back.
