They probably drive it with a mini forklift all the way to your house. If you're up on the 5th floor with no elevator, you're screwed. But maybe they require a service elevator. The IKEA mentality where everything in packaged in a small box or boxed is probably very important. But that's why I'm asking.

A few weeks ago we drove the minivan to a nursery and we were able to fit 4 different trees in it. I bet the whole nursery business is complete different. Like unless you got yard or rooftop you're not getting a tree. Just an example of how things would be different in small ways.
