How we compare
Not all holiday lighting is created equal.
Before you compare quotes, compare what's included. Here's how Lights Up stacks up against the usual alternatives.

Comparison reflects what's typical for each type of provider in our experience. Individual companies vary, so ask any provider what's included before you book.
The real cost of "cheaper"
A lower quote often leaves out design, service calls or takedown, and may come with retail lights that fail mid-season. With Lights Up, one price covers the whole season, about $40 a night.
$200 off + first pick of dates
Book by Thanksgiving for a complimentary wreath ($75 value).
