IKEA is opening a new “plan and order point” location with furniture pick-up on Aug. 28 in Alpharetta, Georgia.

The new location will open in Mansell Crossing Shopping Center at 7681 North Point Pkwy., according to a Wednesday press release.

At plan and order point stores, customers can meet with an IKEA specialist for free to consult for their furnishing needs, such as kitchen, bedroom and living room design. Customers cannot buy and take home products on the same day, but they can pick up purchased items at a later date at the pick-up location at the same site or order items for delivery.
