About the BILLY Bookcase, black oak effect, 31 1/2x11x79 1/2 " package

The BILLY bookcase comes as a single long, flat box: 81¼″ × 11¾″ × 5″ and 86 lb 15 oz. It is the length that catches you out, not the weight on its own. That long panel wants a flat floor, which on most cars means folding the rear seats first. The board is rigid and will not flex around a wheel arch or a short boot, so it has to lie straight. An estate, a folded-seat hatchback, or an SUV takes it comfortably. Load it long-edge first, keep it flat, and guard the corners, because a knock at this weight cracks the edge.
