Shipping Rates

We currently offer free shipping on all orders over $49 that can ship via UPS or FedEx.  For those items too large to ship UPS or FedEx, we are also offering FREE SHIPPING on all FREIGHT orders totalling over $499 for a limited time!

We ship from the big to the small – from large chadeliers to light bulbs. As we have such a large selection (over 150,000 products) shipping prices also vary for those orders where freight fees are imposed. To determine what the true shipping price is for your order:

• Find the product you are interested in on our website.
• Add it to your shopping cart.
• Enter the ship-to zip code.
• Choose your shipping method.

This will show you the total cost for that shipment, for that item. A few things important tips to keep in mind when trying to figure out what your shipping cost will be:

• The shipping price for each individual item is usually more than the total cost of a shipment. Add all the items to your cart before checking the final shipping price.
• We ship by two main methods:
  • Standard shipping – This means UPS, FedEx, DHL, USPS or some other common carrier that provides insurance and tracking. Shipping for additional items usually only goes up incrementally, determined by shipment weight.
  • Freight or ‘LTL’ – This is reserved for large, heavy or oversized items such as large chandeliers, pendants, furniture items, etc. As these are placed onto a pallet, require a scheduled delivery, extra insurance, the cost to ship by this method is more expensive. Adding additional items to this method does not usually increase the cost by a great amount.
• Because we always ship by a trackable method with insurance, there is a minimum for shipping – usually around $5. This can be more expensive when purchasing a $2 part, but it ensures that the delivery is made and that it can be verified.
• Free Shipping – LightingDirect.com often runs a Free Shipping promotion. Free shipping applies to any items shipped by the "Standard Shipping" method mentioned above. Items shipped by freight are not eligible for free shipping.
