What is the difference between IKEA Self-Serve and Full-Serve IKEA articles?

Self-Serve and Full-Serve refer to different types of IKEA articles. Self-Serve articles can be collected directly from the store aisles, while Full-Serve articles are collected by IKEA coworkers, usually because they are larger or require additional handling.

Self-Serve articles can be collected directly from the store aisles. Use the aisle number and location number shown on the product tag to find the article in the self-serve area.
Full-Serve articles cannot be collected directly from the aisles. These articles are usually larger or require additional handling. Please ask an IKEA coworker for assistance, and the store team will arrange the collection.
After completing your payment, you can collect Full-Serve articles from the Exchange and Returns area.
