It would help if you posted which model server you have as this may influence the service tag sticker location.

Also, your Dell contact should be able to get the service tag from the order number for the server (if you have this on file still), or at least that's my experience with Dell US.

Try this command from a command prompt: wmic bios get serialnumber

You don't say what OS you're running, but if you have Linux on it, try this as root:

dmidecode | grep "Serial Number" | head -1

If you have Open Manage Server Administrator installed, I believe it's in the Summary page of that as well.
