Chicago Rugs Freight — Flat-Rate from LA

Authorized 7-day change-of-mind returns on eligible Brand New and Open Box rugs: customer pays return freight plus a 15-30% restocking fee. Damage claims are separate — email photos within 48 hours of Chicago delivery and we resolve it at no cost to you (parts, repair, replacement, partial credit, or return with refund, at our election). Items marked "As-Is / For Parts" are final sale and disclosed as such on the product page.

Most area rugs and runner rugs fit on a single 50×50×85-inch pallet under 850 lb, which is Warp's flat-rate ceiling on the Chicago lane. The crew at our Santa Fe Springs warehouse boxes, wraps, and palletizes each item. If your specific SKU exceeds the ceiling (oversized pieces, multi-box sets), checkout will show a custom quote instead of the flat-rate number — no surprises.

Often yes. Because the Chicago lane rate is flat per pallet, adding more rugs items to the same pallet is effectively free — your per-item shipping cost drops sharply. If you're furnishing a room or the whole home in Chicago, it's usually cheaper to batch orders than to ship one piece at a time.

Oversized rugs — longer than 85 inches in any dimension, heavier than 850 lb, or multi-pallet — gets a custom Warp quote instead of the flat rate. The product page flags this and the checkout flow shows the actual rate for your specific Chicago zip before you pay — oversized pieces are priced before payment, not surprise-billed later.

Varies by item — boxed area rugs typically take 30-90 minutes with basic tools, larger pieces 2-4 hours. Freight delivery doesn't include assembly; the two-man inside delivery add-on ($300) gets it to the room of your choice in Chicago, ready for you or a local handyman to assemble.

Warp's current transit estimate for the 2,015 miles Chicago lane is 7 business days after pickup from our warehouse, plus 1-2 days handling to prep the pallet. The carrier calls you 24-48 hours before the delivery window so you can pick a 4-hour slot.
