About the BMW 1 Series 2020 boot
The way into the 1 Series boot is low: 22⅞″ of clear height above the loading sill, through an opening 37⅜″ wide, while the boot itself is 26″ tall from its floor. That makes tall boxes a poor fit. The sill is 27½″ high and the floor sits 3⅛″ below it. With the rear seats up the floor is 29½″ long and 40⅛″ wide at its narrowest, and folding them adds 28″, giving 57½″ for long flat packs. If a long box will not go in lying flat, try it standing on its side: at an angle, it then needs less of the 37⅜″ width.
About the KALLAX Shelf unit, white, 16 3/8x57 5/8″ package
A slim box can still be a two-person job. This KALLAX is one box of 60¾″ × 16″ × 4¾″ that weighs 39 lb 11 oz, and its length is what makes it awkward. A box this long is hard to steer on your own, and the far end goes where you cannot see it. Lying flat and straight, it needs 60¾″ of boot floor. Turned on its side and angled across the floor, it can fit in a shorter boot. Ask someone to take the far end, even for the short walk to the car, and let them guide it in while you push.
