Freight Shipping
Processing and Estimated Delivery Times:
All Freight delivery dates are estimates, with no guarantees on delivery dates. Estimated transit times vary based on location and size of order. Standard transit is between 3 and 15 business days. Please note, Solar Sovereign is not responsible for delays due to carrier exceptions.
For in-stock products, standard processing times are 1 - 3 business days. Estimated delivery times are based on carrier availability and national shipping lanes, these can vary anywhere between 3 - 15 business days.

at any point you would like an update on your estimated delivery date, feel free to reach out to the

What to Expect at Delivery:
When checking out and selecting freight delivery for your order please note this is Curbside Delivery. This means that the freight carrier will deliver the pallet to your curbside, which is generally the end of your driveway. A driver will unload the pallet on a lift gate and set the pallet typically on your driveway. The freight carrier is not responsible for delivering the pallet up your driveway or onto your property in anyway. Often times this means you are responsible to remove the goods from where they were placed by the carrier. Please plan ahead!
Best practice for Receiving Freight Delivery:
- Take an image of your order in the truck with the Driver upon Arrival
- Take images of all 4 sides of your pallet
- HOT TIP: Try to get the driver in any show where you see potential damages
- Images of any tears, holes, rips in the packaging
- Call the number on your delivery receipt to report any damages to the terminal (immediately upon discovery)
- Call Solar Sovereign (469) 206-8743

Solar Panels
Order Minimums:
After extensive research on transit damages and shipping practices we have discontinued palletizing shipments of less than 10 solar panels. We have found that the stability and overall success of delivery increase substantially at 10+ panel pallets. No pallets under 10 pieces will be allowed for purchase unless picking up in store (on select panels). When purchasing solar panels, we urge customers to purchase additional panels to ensure the safe delivery of the needed amount. Solar panels are made of glass and shipping companies are human-- please do not buy the exact amount of panels needed for your project in case of damages. If you have additional questions regarding the shipping of your solar panels please refer to our Solar Panels Shipping Policy Here.
Packaging:
Solar Sovereign packages solar panels to NMFC guidelines. When shipped Solar Sovereign carefully inspects and documents the packaging and overall condition of your order. All pallets are banded, strapped, and wrapped prior to leaving our warehouse to ensure safe delivery to you!
