In my opinion there is so much to love about St. Louis. The neighborhood haunts, the great food, the people; all top notch. But there is one area where we are lacking: an IKEA. Anyone who has had the chance to visit one, or who has opened a shelter magazine in the past 5 years knows that IKEA is a thing of beauty. A warehouse full of everything from kitchen cabinets to house plants at incredible prices.
But with the closest IKEA 300 miles away in Chicago (and a new one coming in Kansas City, which is still 4 hours away by car) and shipping from their web site a high-priced gamble, the possibilites of getting anything from there looked grim.
Enter, Expedite STL.
Browse IKEA.com and then tell Expedite STL the items you want to order. They will pick them up for you at an economical rate and then you pick up your items in St. Louis, or have them delivered directly to your home. They make the trip once a month and will pick up any non-perishable items, no matter how big or small.

IKEA, here we come!
