§ 01 · How to Track

Three simple steps to see where your order is.

We use 17track.net as our universal tracking portal because a single tracking number sometimes passes through several carriers on its way to you — ocean freight, customs, last-mile courier. 17track aggregates all of them into one clean timeline.

01

Visit 17track and paste your tracking number

Open 17track.net — or use the quick tracker at the top of this page. Enter the tracking number from your shipment confirmation email.

02

View the full shipping timeline

You'll see every scan from origin to destination. Use the language switcher in the upper-right corner to change languages, or click through to the carrier's own tracking page for the full detail.

03

Not sure, or stuck? Just send us your order number

Email support@lumioshine.com with your order number, and we will look up the latest shipping information on your behalf — including container-level GPS for shipments still at sea.

§ 02 · Shipping Methods

Two paths. Chosen to match your order.

Every Lumioshine fixture ships via one of two carefully engineered routes. For most of our United States customers — unless you've paid for an expedited upgrade at checkout — your order will travel by Standard Shipping, our flagship route that balances cost, care, and reliability.

Default · Free for US Orders

Standard Shipping

Sea Freight · 25–45 Days

Your fixture travels in a dedicated Lumioshine container from our Asia workshop to a port in California, clears US Customs, and is delivered to your door by FedEx, UPS, or freight truck.

Express Shipping

Air Courier · 5–10 Days

Your fixture ships directly from our Asia facility via commercial air courier — FedEx, UPS, or DHL — straight to your address, bypassing ocean freight entirely.

§ 03 · Standard Shipping, in Detail

From our workshop, to a port, to you.

Here's what happens after you place your order:

01
Crafted

Your fixture is built in our Asia workshop and quality-checked.

02
Ocean Freight

Loaded into our container, destined for California. 20–35 days at sea.

03
Port Arrival

Container lands at a California port.

04
Customs Clearance

Our team clears customs. Duties already paid by us.

05
Last-Mile

FedEx, UPS, or truck freight to your door.

AStandard-size fixtures — FedEx or UPS

Ceiling lamps, wall sconces, and table lamps that fit within normal courier dimensions are delivered via FedEx or UPS Ground from our California warehouse. You'll receive a tracking number and can simply wait at home for your fixture to arrive.

⚠ Important · Address Requirement

FedEx and UPS are commercial couriers — they cannot deliver to a PO Box. At checkout, please provide a physical residential or business address. Orders shipped to a PO Box are returned to our warehouse, causing delays and re-shipping fees.

BOversized fixtures — Truck freight (LTL)

For large chandeliers, long linear fixtures, and any piece exceeding standard courier dimensions, we switch to less-than-truckload (LTL) freight. After customs clearance, our California team schedules a local trucking company to deliver directly to you.

⚠ Important · Unloading Requirements

Freight trucks are large. Before scheduling delivery, please confirm with our team that:

  • Truck access — your street can accommodate a commercial truck. Narrow residential roads or tight turns may require a smaller delivery vehicle (arrangeable for additional fee).
  • Unloading capacity — someone is available to receive the freight at curbside. For particularly heavy crates, we can arrange forklift assistance in advance.
  • Advance notice — the trucking company will contact you to schedule a delivery window. A missed appointment may incur redelivery charges.

If you have any concerns about access, please tell us before your order ships — we will find an alternative solution.

§ 04 · Express Shipping, in Detail

Direct from Asia, when time matters.

If you've paid for our Express Shipping upgrade at checkout, your fixture skips the ocean. It leaves our Asia facility within 1–3 business days and arrives at your door via commercial air courier — FedEx, UPS, or DHL, depending on route availability — in 5–10 business days total.

⚠ Critical · US Import Duty Update (2025)

As of the 2025 trade policy change, the United States has eliminated the $800 de minimis exemption that previously allowed shipments under $800 to enter duty-free.

This means:
  • Every express shipment to the United States may now incur import duty charges.
  • Duties are paid by the recipient upon delivery — we have no ability to pre-pay on your behalf.
  • Your courier (FedEx / UPS / DHL) will contact you with the exact duty amount before final delivery and will request payment before releasing your shipment.
  • This policy applies regardless of order value and regardless of which express carrier is used.

We recommend budgeting approximately 10–25% of your order value for potential duty, though the exact rate depends on HS code classification and current policy.

For Standard Shipping customers, duties are already included in our shipping arrangement — you will never receive a separate customs bill.

§ 06 · Can't Find Your Tracking?

The most likely answer: it's still at sea.

If your tracking number returns "No information available" or "Not found," please don't worry. In nearly every case, this simply means your order is still aboard the container ship crossing the Pacific.

Here's why this happens: commercial ocean freight typically does not generate detailed tracking events during the 20–35 day voyage. Tracking only becomes active once the container reaches a US port, begins customs clearance, and is handed off to the last-mile courier (FedEx, UPS, or freight truck).

What to do

If it's been more than 40 days since your shipment confirmation and tracking is still empty, please contact us. Using your order number, our support team can:

  • Query the GPS coordinates of the vessel carrying your container in real time.
  • Provide an estimated arrival date at the US port.
  • Share updates on customs clearance progress.

§ 07 · Our Crating Promise

Oversized fixtures get their own wooden crates.

FRAGILECustom-built · Forklift-ready · Padded

For chandeliers, long linear pendants, and any fixture exceeding standard packaging dimensions, we manufacture custom wooden crates sized specifically to the piece. These are not stock boxes — they are built, piece by piece, around your fixture.

Each crate is engineered to:

  • Absorb container handling impact during multiple stages of loading, ocean transit, and unloading.
  • Control internal humidity to protect metal finishes and delicate components during ocean travel.
  • Accept forklift handling at every touchpoint — ports, customs, warehouses, and final delivery.
  • Protect finishes and surfaces with internal padding sized to the fixture.

We would rather absorb the additional crating cost than risk your fixture arriving anything less than perfect.

§ 08 · If Something Arrives Damaged

First — don't panic. Every case has a solution.

Shipping damage is rare but not unheard of. If your fixture arrives damaged, missing parts, or with a visible defect, please follow these steps — it will dramatically speed up your resolution.

AWhat to do — within 72 hours of delivery

  1. Photograph the outer packaging before unpacking — especially any visible damage, crushing, or piercing.
  2. Unpack carefully and photograph the fixture from multiple angles, with close-ups of any damage or defect.
  3. Note any missing or broken components using the packing list included in your shipment.
  4. Email our support team at support@lumioshine.com with your order number, the photographs above, and a brief description.

BWhat we'll do — within 24 hours of your email

A dedicated specialist will review your case and reply with one of three outcomes, depending on what best resolves your situation:

  • A full replacement fixture shipped at our cost.
  • Replacement parts if only a single component is affected (often faster than a full replacement).
  • A full refund if a replacement is not feasible or if you prefer.
We handle every case ourselves. You will not be redirected to an outside warranty office, put into a support queue, or asked to pay return shipping for our error.
§ 09 · For Wholesale & Bulk Customers

A word to designers, hoteliers, and developers.

If you're planning to order Lumioshine fixtures in volume — for a hospitality build-out, a multi-unit residential project, or a design showroom — we have a sincere piece of advice:

Lumioshine · Wholesale Advisory

Start with one sample. Always.

Even if you love what you see on our website, even if you've ordered from us before, even if the project timeline is tight.

Here is the honest reason we recommend this:

  • International freight in both directions is expensive. If a bulk order of 30 fixtures isn't quite right for your project, returning them costs significantly more than shipping them to you.
  • Specifications on paper don't fully communicate a fixture. A single sample in your actual space — with your actual lighting, your actual ceilings, your actual dimmers — tells you everything a 3D render cannot.
  • Our goal is a long partnership. A 100-fixture order that delights you is worth far more to us than a 100-fixture order that ends in a return.
How the sample workflow works

Purchase one unit of the fixture you're considering. If you decide to proceed with a bulk order within 30 days, we will credit the full sample price against your bulk order. Contact us before placing the bulk order so we can arrange the credit.

§ 10 · Our Service Promise

Every customer. Every order. Every time.

The four commitments behind every Lumioshine shipment.

24-hour response On every email and phone inquiry — 7 days a week, holidays included.
Proactive updates During any exceptional shipping situation. If your order is delayed, you hear about it from us first, not from you writing in.
Real people, not chatbots Every support case is reviewed by a specialist.
Direct authority to resolve Our support team has full authority to issue refunds, dispatch replacements, arrange special logistics, and waive re-shipping fees. No multi-level approvals. No runaround.
! A sincere note about resolution

If something goes wrong with your order — a late delivery, a damaged item, a billing discrepancy — please reach out to us first.

Negotiation is always faster than escalation. We can typically resolve an issue within 24 to 72 hours. A bank chargeback or payment dispute, by contrast, initiates a formal process that takes 4 to 8 weeks — during which neither party can act freely. The outcome is nearly always worse for both sides than a direct conversation would have produced.

We have helped thousands of customers through their shipping journeys — across oceans, customs, last-mile couriers, and the occasional unexpected problem. We will help you, too. You only have to ask.
