If you need IKEA furniture delivered and assembled in Houston without overspending, local services like TaskRabbit, Dolly, and Thumbtack offer flat rates starting at $50. These providers handle everything from pickup to setup, saving you hours of frustration.

Houston’s IKEA store in Live Oak stocks over 7,000 products, but transporting large items like BESTÅ shelves or HEMNES beds requires a van or truck. Renting one costs around $20/hour, but hiring a delivery service with assembly included averages $80–$150–often cheaper than DIY when factoring in gas and time.

For same-day service, check Lugg or Furniture Assembly Houston, which specialize in IKEA builds. Their crews know tricky pieces like PAX wardrobes and can finish a full bedroom set in under two hours. Weekday bookings typically cost 20% less than weekends.

Smaller items? IKEA’s own delivery starts at $5, but third-party assemblers charge $25–$40 per piece. If you’re near Katy or The Woodlands, independent handymen often undercut city rates by 15–30%. Always confirm pricing upfront–some include disposal of packaging, others add fees.

Why it’s better than DIY

Save hours of frustration by letting professionals handle IKEA furniture assembly. Missing parts, unclear instructions, and uneven builds happen often–experts prevent these issues with the right tools and experience.

Professional services reduce physical strain. Lifting heavy boxes, bending for hours, and struggling with awkward parts can lead to injuries. A trained team completes the job safely and quickly.

Mistakes cost time and money. Misassembled furniture may need replacements or repairs. Assembly pros get it right the first time, avoiding wasted trips to IKEA or extra expenses.

Your schedule stays flexible. Instead of dedicating a weekend to building furniture, book a service that fits your availability. Most providers offer same-day or next-day slots in Houston.

Experts optimize space better. They know how to position furniture for maximum functionality, especially in tight apartments or oddly shaped rooms.

No tools required. Professional assemblers bring everything–drills, screwdrivers, levelers–so you don’t buy or borrow equipment for a one-time project.

Warranty protection matters. Many assembly services guarantee their work, fixing any issues afterward. DIY errors leave you with no recourse.

Focus on what matters. Spend your free time relaxing or with family, not decoding instruction manuals.

FAQ:

How much does IKEA furniture delivery and assembly cost in Houston?

Delivery and assembly costs depend on the size of your order and the complexity of the furniture. For standard delivery within Houston, IKEA charges a flat fee starting at $49, while assembly typically ranges from $59 to $199 based on the number of items and time required. Some third-party services may offer bundled discounts for larger orders.

Can I schedule same-day delivery and assembly for IKEA furniture in Houston?

Same-day service is rare for IKEA's official delivery, as slots fill quickly. However, local third-party providers in Houston sometimes offer faster turnaround times, including same-day assembly if the furniture is already in stock. Always confirm availability before placing an order.
