How does Parcel Delivery work?
To use this service, add smaller items to your cart, select the 'Parcel Delivery' option at checkout, and provide your delivery address and any special instructions. You'll receive a confirmation email with estimated delivery dates, and tracking information will be provided once the order is processed. On delivery day, ensure a safe place is available if you're not present and check for any issues immediately upon receiving your order. If you notice any problems (such as missing or damaged items), contact IKEA Customer Support.
- Order placement
a. Add your smaller items (decoration, textiles, accessories) to your shopping bag, then select 'Delivery' (Parcel Delivery option) at checkout. (If shopping bag does not qualify for Parcel type, this option will not be available)
b. Plan a safe and secure location if you’re not available to receive the delivery in person.
c. Enter your delivery address and review pricing based on weight and other specifics provided at checkout. Ensure that any special instructions (e.g. safe drop-off location) are clearly noted.
d. Complete the purchase and check for a confirmation email detailing estimated delivery dates (typically 3–10 business days) which are subject to slight variations.
e. Unfortunately, we are unable to modify parcel orders that have been placed. Cancellation of parcel orders can only be made before it is sent to dispatch.
- Order processing and dispatch
a. Once the order is processed, the tracking information will be provided via email and oor SMS. Monitor the tracking details using the provided order number and the tracking link. Use the online Track and Manage tool (Track Order) to monitor your parcel’s progress.
