IKEA is very reliable in delivery. Simply register your Spanish address. If you already have an account they will transfer it from your current country. 

Amazon Prime works the same. Register yourself with Amazon ES and you can access items from Spain and UK. For example UK  books will be available here at minimal delivery cost

I've been having orders from amazon in Spain for many years and can say they are very reliable.

Amazon Prime is pretty good in Spain, but sometimes not as fast as UK. But then many things slower in Spain, for example holidays and weekends don't really effect things in UK, here they do.

"weekends don't really effect things in UK, here they do"

Not in my area, I had Parcels delivered yesterday from Amazon.es, Sunday no problem 😊

In my experience the actual Amazon drivers are brilliant, delivering to your door. Unfortunately I have had problems with Amazon 'partners' who use other carriers such as GLS, UPS,  SEUR. They seem to always say 'could not be delivered' when people are at the address and they have our telephone numbers to check we are in? We have had several deliveries over the years from IKEA. Again with the actual IKEA drivers are ace but when they are busy (e.g. Christmas) they will use other carriers that are not so good. Hope this helps and sorry to sound so negative but this is just my experience with both. Best of luck on your move here!
