About the VW Polo 2021 boot
Boxes go into the Polo over a small step: the floor sits only 3⅛″ below the loading sill. Above that sill you get 24″ of clear height and 36¼″ of width at the tailgate opening, with 27⅛″ of height inside from the floor. The floor is 40⅛″ wide at its narrowest. Length is the catch, though: behind the rear seats you get just 26″, which suits one or two small boxes, and folding them adds 28⅜″ for 54⅜″, room for a long flat pack. Empty the boot before you shop, so the whole floor is free for the boxes.
About the IVAR Shelving unit, pine, 35x11 3/4x70 1/2″ package
Length is the whole job with this IVAR shelving unit. Its seven boxes weigh 34 lb 1 oz altogether, and the two long ones set the size: each is 70½″ × 3½″ × 1¾″ at 6 lb 1 oz. Lying flat and straight, they need 70½″ of boot floor. Turned on their sides and angled across the floor, they can fit in a shorter boot. The other five are shorter and easy to handle: four flat boxes of 32¾″ × 11¾″ × ¾″ and one slim 40¼″ box. Carry each long box at your side, pointing the way you walk, so its ends cannot swing into anything.
