Streamline your lighting fulfillment with the industry leaders in big, heavy, and bulky fulfillment
Red Stag specializes in fulfilling lighting & home ambiance products with the precision and care these delicate items demand. Here are just a few of the products we can fulfill:
Pendant lights
Wall sconces
Chandelier fixtures
Floor lamps
Table lamps
Recessed lighting
LED strip lighting
Smart lighting systems
Decorative string lights
Outdoor pathway lighting
One of the reasons we moved to Red Stag is because they had secured big discounts with their carriers. If you’re a brand with large products, high surcharges for big and heavy items can really kill you.
Red Stag went really aggressive on cutting down those costs with the carriers, and they could pass the savings on to us.

Why partnering with a 3PL built for large items like specialty lighting & home ambiance benefits your brand:
Carrier savings that illuminate
Shipping delicate and sometimes bulky specialty lighting is costly. By combining shipping volume across our client base, we’ve secured exceptional discounts with major carriers that significantly reduce costs for oversized, fragile, and high-value lighting and ambiance products.
Specialized storage solutions
Our warehouses feature specialized shelving, temperature controls, and dust-free zones designed specifically for valuable lighting fixtures. Our team is trained to handle delicate items with precision, ensuring your unique ambiance products receive the specialized care they deserve.
Brilliantly backed guarantees
Fine lighting pieces and ambiance products often carry premium price tags. That’s why we offer zero damage and 100% inventory accuracy guarantees. If we fail to meet these standards, we’ll reimburse you for your cost and provide additional compensation for the inconvenience.
The human touch advantage
While competitors rely on rigid automation unsuitable for delicate lighting products, our approach blends custom technology with highly-trained personnel. This human-centered model ensures your specialty lighting receives meticulous handling that automated systems simply cannot provide.
Common challenges of specialty lighting & home ambiance fulfillment & shipping to customers
01
Specialty lighting products are often fragile and uniquely shaped, requiring customized packaging and careful handling to prevent breakage during storage and transit.
02
Home ambiance items like delicate glass fixtures, crystal elements, and artisanal pieces demand extra protection against vibration and impact during shipping.
03
Many lighting products contain electrical components and specialized bulbs that must comply with safety regulations and require proper labeling for shipping.
04
Precise shipping helps to avoid costly returns from customers with damaged products, especially with high-value decorative lighting that creates significant replacement expenses.
The Red Stag Story
Focusing on big, heavy and bulky fulfillment since 2012
In 2011, our co-founders were on their third 3PL and at their wit’s end.
Their sporting goods e-commerce company was growing rapidly. But fulfillment was a major problem— late deliveries to customers, lost inventory, and package mixups were costing them dearly—in both money and customer loyalty.
One of the problems? Their inventory was heavy and bulky. And the 3PLs were struggling with the (literal) heavy lifting.
This was the moment Red Stag was born.
And since our very first client was our owners’ sporting goods company, we purpose-built our operations to handle big, heavy, and bulky fulfillment from day 1.
Specialty lighting & home ambiance fulfillment isn’t the only thing we have going for us…
US support team with dedicated account managers
You never get lost in the shuffle at Red Stag Fulfillment. Need to pick up the phone and talk to someone today? You got it. We aren’t going to send you down a support ticket rabbit hole with an outsourced rep.
Clean and organized warehouses
This should be a given for any 3PL, right? Sadly, it’s not. Cleanliness and organization are two of the best leading indicators of a successful operation. We’re proud of our warehouses and welcome you to come see for yourself, anytime.
Privately owned
12 years later, our co-founders still own 100% of Red Stag. They’re in it for the long haul. No venture capital pushing for growth at all costs. No 4PL shenanigans. We value a reliable and consistent fulfillment experience that brings peace of mind to operators.
Not convinced?
We get it, this is a difficult decision.
Your products are the life of your brand, and having them at the mercy of an outsourced partner requires a lot of trust.
That’s why we have one of the most in-depth consultative sales processes in the industry to make sure you find the very best fit—even if it’s not us (we turn away over 95% of companies, helping them find better fits instead!).
