About the BMW X3 2022 boot

The X3 gives you a wide, level cargo bay. The hatch opens 44⅛ inches across and 31⅛ inches tall, and the floor holds 43¼ inches at its narrowest, so wide boxes that snag in smaller SUVs slide through here. Length is the catch: 37⅜ inches behind the seats, 70⅛ inches once they fold, a gain of +32⅝ inches. The floor sits level with the 27½ inch liftover, no drop on the far side, so a heavy carton pushes straight in. Save long flat-packs for seats-down trips; upright, the bay favors short, wide, stackable boxes. Slide heavy loads in across the sill and spare your back.

About the MALM Bed frame, white, Queen package

The MALM queen frame ships as 3 flat boxes, and the longest is the one that decides everything: 81¼″ long, 9¾″ wide and just 3″ thick. It is a long, rigid plank that will not bend around a wheel arch or a seat back, and the set weighs 101 lb 6 oz in total, so it is heavy as well as long. A boot with over 81¼″ of load length handles it, which in practice means an estate, a hatchback with the seats folded, or an SUV. Slide the long box in first, flat and angled if needed, then lay the two shorter boxes on top. Protect the leading edge as you push it over the sill.
