About the Alfa Romeo 159 2010 boot
The 159 gives you plenty of height at the opening and less width than you would like. The mouth measures 36⅝″ wide by 50¾″ tall, so tall boxes go in easily, and the floor matches it at 36⅝″ across its narrowest point. Length runs 40⅛″ with the seats up and 69⅝″ folded, a gain of 29½″. Wide, rigid cartons are the ones that fight you here. The sill is 30⅜″ off the ground with a 9⅞″ drop to the floor, so lift over the lip and lower, rather than sliding.
About the KALLAX Shelf unit, white, 43 7/8x57 5/8 " package
The KALLAX shelf unit arrives as two packages, and the larger one measures 56½″ long, 16″ wide and 5″ thick. That length is what decides the car. The whole order weighs 95 lb 3 oz, so it is a two-person lift even though the boxes look thin. Flat-pack board has no give, so you cannot bend it around a wheel arch or a seat back. An estate or an SUV with the rear bench down handles it comfortably. Load the long box first, on its edge and angled towards the far corner, then slide the second one alongside.
