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 KALLAX Shelf unit, white, 30 1/8x30 1/8″ package

This KALLAX comes in one compact box of 32″ × 16″ × 7½″, and it weighs 37 lb 8 oz. That is a lot of weight for so small a box, and it is what makes the job awkward. Lying flat on the boot floor, it takes a space 32″ long, 16″ wide and 7½″ high. The risk sits in the lift, so bend your knees and get your hands under the bottom corners, not on its top edges. That keeps your grip under the weight the whole way into the boot.
