Why Is Ikea Shipping So Expensive? (finally Explained)

IKEA is the best place to find furniture for your home. They are well known for their low prices and you can find everything you like.

This is the reason why it is so expensive to use IKEA. It is because they spend so much money on labor, storage and shipping.

However, there are occasions when you will be saving money by purchasing multiple items at once. For example, if you are buying kitchen goods for your home, it may be better to buy a single item first and then buy more products (such as pots, pans and other utensils) at a later date, if you need to.

Now IKEA shipping can be tricky because it depends on a number of factors.

Here Are Some More Reasons Why Shipping Is So Pricey

We have to know that what does your order contains so as to adjust the shipping cost (in the website of IKEA).
To keep track of a purchase, you can easily create a receipt on your computer.
You can also go to the “My Account” page in the same website to manage your order.

If you are living in a metro area, you can usually find a shop of a large courier company (in most cases they are same as the smaller, local, local) that provides services in your area.

How to find out the costs yourself: You can use the *online calculator* on the [delivery page](https://www.delivery.com/calculate-delivery-cost/).

So, no matter how many products you have at checkout, the shipping and delivery fees are calculated per order, rather than per item, so you can order more items and not pay more for shipping.

I am pretty sure that this means that there is no charge for the multiple purchase to arrive in one package. But if I order 5 items, it will arrive in one package, right?

I doubt it. Since the package will be shipped as soon as one is collected. I.e. the only thing that matters to charge the shipping is the first one. If 5 items are collected it’s a package of multiple items shipped.

So, because of this, the shipping cost is quite expensive when buying a single item from IKEA. However, it is actually quite cost-efficient when purchasing a lot of furniture from IKEA.

Not only are our delivery people crazy, but they have a weird shipping rate where we have to pay for every single item delivered.

Even if you live in Alaska, there is a chance that you will have to pay more for shipping.
