Helpful tips

Use these loading tips to improve your chances of fitting KALLAX Shelf unit, white, 43 7/8x57 5/8 " in Dacia Sandero 2023.

  • Optimize opening width

    Keep the narrow edge leading while entering the opening.

  • Load diagonally first

    Load diagonally first, then straighten once inside.

  • Plan package order

About the Dacia Sandero 2023 boot

The Sandero's boot is a small, square space that opens up once you fold it. The opening is 37⅜″ wide × 33½″ tall, and the floor runs 31½″ with the seats up, reaching 54⅜″ folded, a gain of 22⅞″. At its narrowest the floor still spans 40½″, so width rarely stops you. Length does. The sill sits high at 30⅜″ with a 9⅞″ drop to the floor, so you lift parcels up and over before they settle in. It takes boxes, cases and shopping well, long flat-pack panels poorly. Slide heavy items in rather than lowering them down the drop.

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.
