San Francisco 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 San Francisco, CA 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 380 miles lane to San Francisco. 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 San Francisco metro — population ~4.6M — 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.

For lighting bound for San Francisco, CA, expect a scheduling call from the freight carrier 1-2 business days before delivery so you can pick a 4-hour window. Curbside is the default. Add two-man inside delivery (white-glove, flat $300) at checkout if the item is heavy, bulky, or going upstairs.

How lighting freight delivery works

Included

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.

Add-on at checkout · $300 flat

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 San Francisco — FAQ

Can I inspect lighting before it ships to San Francisco?

Yes — our Santa Fe Springs warehouse is open to the public Mon-Fri 9-5 and Sat 10-4. If you want hands-on eyes on a specific lighting SKU before it leaves for San Francisco, call (562) 568-8883 to arrange a walk-through. For remote buyers we can also send additional photos or a short video of your exact piece.

What brands of lighting ship to San Francisco?

Our lighting inventory is sourced from Costco, Amazon, and Signature Hardware overstock plus truckload liquidations from other major retailers. For San Francisco orders specifically, you'll see the same brand-name chandeliers, pendant lights, and ceiling lights that retail stores carry — at 40-80% off their retail prices — because our sourcing isn't tied to a local CA distribution network.

What if my lighting item is too large for flat-rate freight to San Francisco?

Oversized lighting — 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 San Francisco zip before you pay — oversized pieces are priced before payment, not surprise-billed later.

What happens if lighting arrives damaged in San Francisco?

Inspect every piece before signing the Bill of Lading (BOL). Write any visible damage on the BOL before the driver leaves San Francisco — that's critical for our carrier claim. Photograph the freight, packaging, and pallet, email photos plus 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.

Do you charge California sales tax on lighting orders shipped to San Francisco?

San Francisco is in California, where we collect sales tax at the local rate (typically 9.5-10.75% depending on the delivery city). The final tax amount is calculated automatically at checkout based on your delivery address.

Can I pick up lighting at a San Francisco freight terminal instead of having it delivered?

On several San Francisco lanes, the carrier supports terminal pickup, which saves the residential delivery surcharge. Email [email protected] or call (562) 568-8883 before placing the order and we'll confirm whether your specific lighting item supports San Francisco-terminal pickup and what the savings would be.
