It's Not a Rumor ... IKEA is Finally Coming to St. Louis

(I-Newswire) August 25, 2010 - ST. LOUIS, MO – The wait is over. For years, design-savvy St. Louis area residents have longed for a convenient and economical way to have IKEA furnishings and accessories delivered to their doorstep. Now getting the style you want, at a price tag and time commitment you can afford, has never been easier, thanks to Midwest-Modern, LLC. Started by local entrepreneurs Guy Cunningham and Nathan Bavolek, the St. Louis-based company recently began delivery services of IKEA furniture and accessories to the metropolitan region.

“IKEA stocks more than 9,000 items that are both stylishly designed and economically priced,” said Guy Cunningham, co-founder of Midwest-Modern. “But the nearest IKEA to the St. Louis area is more than 280 miles away and IKEA’s shipping rates can be astronomically expensive. With Midwest-Modern, customers simply pick out the items they want from the IKEA catalog or website and our staff takes care of the rest. We’ll drive up to Chicago, fight the traffic and crowds at checkout, load up the items, and bring them back to St. Louis, all for a very reasonable delivery fee. We can ship every item IKEA offers, even items they won’t ship to St. Louis. And, we can put everything together for you. No more fumbling around with an Allen wrench.”

In addition, Midwest-Modern, LLC offers IKEA design services and remodeling solutions for the kitchen, bath, home office, bedroom or corporate workspace. “IKEA is the world’s largest cabinet maker. The retailer stocks a large assortment of both modern and traditional cabinetry, cabinet hardware, fixtures, sinks and appliances, all with industry-leading warranties,” said Bavolek. “Midwest-Modern, LLC will individually work with clients to customize a design plan for their unique lifestyle, develop design options, and provide installation services at very a reasonable price point.”

Customers can place their orders through Midwest-Modern’s website, www.midwest-modern.com with a few simple clicks. The company’s delivery schedule is published on the site. The first scheduled trip is September 1, 2010. Midwest-Modern plans to make subsequent trips every two to three weeks. Midwest-Modern, LLC accepts all major credit cards and PayPal. Items can be picked up on Fridays and Saturdays at Midwest-Modern’s warehouse located at 284 East Avenue in Webster Groves. Alternatively, customers can choose home delivery for an additional fee.
