Walmart renews holiday light installation partnership
For the second straight year, Walmart is teaming up with a well-known home services platform to assist customers with installing and removing holiday lights.
The discount retailer is once again partnering with Angi (formerly Angie’s List) to provide holiday lighting services. Walmart customers can obtain installation and removal of their holiday lights starting at $149 for up to 150 feet. Walmart and Angi initially offered this collaborative service during the 2022 holiday season.
Walmart customers will see QR codes on store shelves shelves and the packages of lights. This code will give them the opportunity to purchase light installation from an Angi-verified professional. Whether in a Walmart store using the QR code or while shopping online at Walmart.com, customers will be directed to the retailer’s holiday landing page.
When the holidays are over, another professional from Angi can come take down the lights too with the bundled Walmart special of $229 for both installation and removal of 150 feet of lights.
Walmart shoppers will have the option to utilize a variety of holiday services offered by pros through Angi, which include décor setup and removal, artificial Christmas tree setup, and two package options for Christmas lights.
“Once again Walmart is committed to helping customers make the most of their time during the busy holiday season. This includes offering home services that allow them to spend more time with their families,” said Marlena Bond, VP of Walmart’s seasonal merchandise. “We are proud to partner with Angi to offer customers an affordable, reliable option for professional light installation. And this year, we are excited to make it even easier for families to save time by bundling our installation and removal services together.”
"The holidays can be a hectic time of year and getting your home ready is one thing you can check off your list with ease with the help of a pro from Angi to install your holiday lights from Walmart," said Angie Hicks, co-founder and chief customer officer, Angi. "We are happy to be partnering with Walmart again this year to help homeowners hang and take down their lights with professional installation by one of the pros on Angi. With upfront pricing and easy booking options, let a qualified home pro from the Angi network do the work for you."
In January 2022, Walmart partnered with Angi to enable customers to book flooring, painting, plumbing, electrical, TV mounting and other home services with Angi. Customers can book the services in-store or online.
