About the VW Polo 2021 boot
Boxes go into the Polo over a small step: the floor sits only 3⅛″ below the loading sill. Above that sill you get 24″ of clear height and 36¼″ of width at the tailgate opening, with 27⅛″ of height inside from the floor. The floor is 40⅛″ wide at its narrowest. Length is the catch, though: behind the rear seats you get just 26″, which suits one or two small boxes, and folding them adds 28⅜″ for 54⅜″, room for a long flat pack. Empty the boot before you shop, so the whole floor is free for the boxes.
About the VITTSJÖ Shelf unit, black-brown/glass, 39 3/8x68 7/8″ package
The VITTSJÖ shelf unit packs into one long, narrow box, 79¼″ × 15¼″ × 3½″, and it weighs 60 lb 12 oz. Its glass travels in that same box. The length makes the box hard to turn, and with glass inside, a knock or a drop can break something. For it to lie flat and straight, the box needs 79¼″ of boot floor and 15¼″ across. Carry it with two people and take every turn slowly. Once it is in the boot, push a blanket or soft bags into the gaps around it, so the box cannot shift on the drive.
