How does the IKEA assembly service work?

You don't want to assemble your IKEA furniture yourself? With the IKEA assembly service in cooperation with Taskrabbit, you can conveniently have the assembly done by experienced assembly professionals. Depending on the product and project, different services are available to you.

Furniture assembly with Taskrabbit

For the assembly of many IKEA furniture, IKEA works with Taskrabbit together. The so-called "Taskers" are self-employed craftsmen who take over the assembly of your furniture directly at your home.

After your booking, you will receive an appointment proposal from Taskrabbit by email. To make sure that the appointment can be booked bindingly, you must provide your payment details to Taskrabbit within 24 hours. If the proposed appointment does not fit, you can easily send it via Taskrabbit.de adapt.
The assembly usually takes place a few days after receiving your goods. Before the appointment, your Tasker will contact you via the Taskrabbit platform to discuss all the details. In addition, you will receive a reminder before your installation appointment.
To ensure that the assembly can go smoothly, you should already bring the furniture into the designated room and, if possible, leave it in its original packaging. The Tasker brings the necessary tools with him. After completion of the work, payment is made automatically via the credit or debit card stored with Taskrabbit.
