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 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.
