About the Alfa Romeo 159 2010 boot
Height is the figure to watch in the 159's boot. Every box has to pass under 19⅝″ of clear height above the loading sill, so a tall one only goes in flat. Width is simpler: the opening and the floor at its narrowest are both 36⅝″, so a box narrow enough for one is narrow enough for the other. The floor runs 40⅛″ with the rear seats up and 69⅝″ with them folded, which gives long flat packs 29½″ more. The sill is 30⅜″ off the ground, with a 9⅞″ drop to the floor behind it. Lift each box over the sill and lower it gently to the floor, rather than letting it fall.
About the BILLY Bookcase, black oak effect, 31 1/2x11x79 1/2″ package
You get the black oak effect BILLY in a single box, 81¼″ long, 11¾″ wide and 5″ thick. It weighs 86 lb 15 oz, and over that length the weight is hard to control, so plan on two of you, one at each end. Lying straight, it needs 81¼″ of boot floor, though its width and thickness still matter. Lift together on a count, so neither of you takes the full weight, even for a second. Set it down the same way, both ends at once.
