Minneapolis shoppers don't have to settle for local lighting prices. Francis Retail liquidates overstock chandeliers and pendant lights by the truckload and ships it from Los Angeles to Minneapolis, MN at predictable flat-rate freight — same pieces the big-box stores sell, delivered to your door after LTL transit (the current estimate is shown with the rate).
Most lighting items we ship fit cleanly on a single pallet inside the 1,935 miles lane to Minneapolis. That means the rate you see on this page is the rate you'll pay, not an opening bid. If you're furnishing a home in the Minneapolis metro — population ~3.7M — run the landed-cost math: we sell chandeliers and pendant lights at 40-80% off retail, and the current rate for a standard pallet is shown on this page.
Curbside delivery with liftgate is included on every lighting order to Minneapolis. Driver calls 24-48 hours ahead to book a 4-hour window. Two-man inside delivery (white-glove) to the room of your choice is a flat $300 checkout add-on.

How lighting freight delivery works
Curbside + liftgate
Standard freight is curbside with liftgate: the driver lowers the pallet to your driveway or curb. Moving it inside is up to you unless you add inside delivery.
Two-man inside delivery (white-glove)
A 2-person crew brings your items inside your home, to the room of your choice — not just the curb. One flat $300 per order. Assembly isn't included.
Lighting shipping to Minneapolis — FAQ
Can I combine lighting with other items in one shipment to Minneapolis?
Yes — multiple items to the same Minneapolis address ship on combined pallets as long as the total stays within Warp's 850-lb, 50×50×85 flat-rate ceiling. If your cart exceeds that, checkout shows a multi-pallet freight quote (still flat-rate per pallet) instead of surprise fees at delivery.
Why is your lighting cheaper than Amazon for Minneapolis delivery?
Our lighting is often literally Amazon's inventory — overstock and returned-pallet liquidation from the same warehouses that stock Amazon. We skip Amazon's retail markup and the fulfillment fees baked into their price, then ship from Santa Fe Springs to Minneapolis. Same product, same condition grade, typically 40-80% less even after 1,935 miles of freight.
Do I need to be home for a lighting delivery in Minneapolis?
Yes — residential lighting freight to Minneapolis requires someone 18+ present at the delivery address to sign the Bill of Lading. The carrier will call to schedule a 4-hour window so you're not waiting all day. If no one's home during the confirmed window, the carrier's actual reattempt and storage charges apply before redelivery.
What's included in the lighting freight rate to Minneapolis?
Pickup from our 1,935 miles-away Santa Fe Springs warehouse, LTL freight transit on Warp's Minneapolis lane, curbside delivery with liftgate, and carrier scheduling. The one optional add-on — two-man inside delivery (white-glove) for a flat $300 — is a visible line item at checkout, not hidden inside the base rate.
How much lighting do you actually stock?
Our Santa Fe Springs warehouse runs 10,000+ sq ft of active inventory with new truckloads arriving weekly. Lighting Fixtures turnover is fast — the product grid on this page is a live slice of what's in stock and freight-eligible for Minneapolis today. Items can move before a MN order ships, which is why we hold a unit once you pay.
What does inside (white-glove) delivery cost on Minneapolis lighting shipments?
Checkout offers one delivery add-on: two-man inside delivery (white-glove) for a flat $300. A 2-person crew brings your lighting inside your MN home to the room of your choice instead of leaving it at the curb. It doesn't include assembly. Without it, freight to Minneapolis is curbside with liftgate.
