Furniture shopping in Minneapolis just got a lot cheaper. Francis Retail ships liquidation furniture, appliances, and outdoor structures from our Southern California warehouse to Minneapolis, Minnesota at flat-rate freight — no per-mile pricing, no fuel surcharges, no surprise fees at delivery.

Francis Retail's Minneapolis freight lane is built for large items: sectionals, dining sets, beds, gazebos, appliances. Anything you'd normally expect to pay $300-$800 to ship via LTL freight ships on our flat-rate lane for less. The items pick up at our Santa Fe Springs warehouse near LAX and arrive at your Minneapolis delivery address in a predictable 28-hour transit window plus handling.

The carrier calls you 24-48 hours before the delivery window so you can pick a 4-hour slot that works. Curbside is the default across the Minneapolis lane; liftgate is included. If the item won't fit through standard doorways or you need it assembled, pick the inside-delivery or white-glove option.

Shipping to Minneapolis — FAQ

Does Francis Retail ship to Minneapolis?

Yes. Minneapolis is on our dedicated Warp freight lane. We ship furniture, appliances, outdoor structures, and large home goods from our Santa Fe Springs, California warehouse to the Minneapolis metro at flat-rate freight pricing. The lane covers Minneapolis and nearby areas including Saint Paul, Bloomington, Brooklyn Park.

How long does shipping from Los Angeles to Minneapolis take?

Typical transit is 3-8 business days after pickup from our warehouse, plus 1-2 days handling to prep the pallet. Expect a scheduling call from the carrier 24-48 hours before delivery so you can pick a 4-hour window. The 1,935 miles lane runs direct — no transfers through a central hub.

What if my furniture arrives damaged in Minneapolis?

Inspect every piece before signing the Bill of Lading (BOL). If you see any visible damage, write it on the BOL before the driver leaves — that's critical for our claim against the carrier. Photograph the freight, packaging, and pallet, email photos + your order number to [email protected] within 48 hours, and keep all packaging until the claim is closed. We resolve verified damage at no cost to you — replacement parts, repair, a replacement unit, partial credit, or a return with refund, at our election.

Does Francis Retail charge Minnesota sales tax on Minneapolis orders?

We do not currently charge Minnesota sales tax — use tax may apply per MN law.

Can I pick up at a Minneapolis terminal instead of having it delivered?

Sometimes yes — several of our freight lanes support pickup at the carrier's Minneapolis terminal, which can save the residential delivery surcharge. Mention it when you email or call us before placing your order and we'll confirm whether terminal pickup is available for your specific item.

Why ship furniture 1,935 miles from Los Angeles instead of buying in Minneapolis?

Because our liquidation pricing — 40-80% off retail on brand-new and open-box items from Costco, Amazon, and Signature Hardware — makes the flat-rate freight math work even over 1,935 miles. A $2,500 retail sectional priced at $900 here, plus flat-rate freight to Minneapolis, is still hundreds less than buying that same sectional at local retail.
