About the VW Polo 2021 boot
The Polo boot is a supermini boot: short, fairly wide, and easy to load low. The opening is 36¼″ across but only 27⅛″ tall, so tall boxes are the first thing to catch. Seats up you get 26″ of floor, fine for a shop or a couple of cases, not for long cartons. Fold the bench and it opens to 54⅜″, a gain of 28⅜″. The good part is the floor: 40⅛″ wide at the narrow point and almost flush with the sill, just a 3⅛″ drop. With the sill at 27½″ you can slide flat boxes straight in without lifting over a lip.
About the KALLAX Shelf unit, white, 30 1/8x30 1/8 " package
The 2x2 KALLAX is one of the easiest IKEA packages you will carry: a single flat box of 31¾″ × 16¼″ × 7½″ at 37 lb 8 oz. At under 32″ long it fits in nearly any trunk without folding a seat, small hatchbacks included. The weight is the only catch: it is dense for its size and the cardboard gives you no handholds. Carry it upright against your body rather than flat by the ends, and lay it on its wide face in the trunk so it cannot flip over on the first speed bump.
