Ikea does delivery here in the United States, but their delivery service has a bad reputation. There are small businesses that have been created around this. I found a business that would purchase, deliver, and assemble items from Ikea. All I had to do was send them a copy of my Ikea shopping list. In my particular case, they purchased items at the Elizabeth, NJ location, which has a 3.3% sales tax [1]. If I didn't use their service, I would have had to shop at Ikea Brooklyn, which has an 8.8% sales tax [2].

Yes, Ikea delivery is wonky in the US. Ikea themselves will deliver, but the cost is based on how far you are from the nearest store, and it's not cheap. Some of those third-party delivery services are good, but none of them are cheap. Ikea stores give me nightmares. You can get in, but you can't get out again. What I really want is to be able to order stuff from Ikea online so I don't have to set foot in their store, and have it delivered quickly for a low flat fee. They probably should think about doing some kind of partnership with Amazon to make this happen.
