About the Citroen C3 2023 boot
The C3 gives you a small supermini boot suited to shopping and soft bags rather than long flat-pack. The opening measures 88 cm wide by 79 cm tall, and the floor runs only 67 cm deep with the seats up. Fold the rear bench and it reaches 136 cm, a healthy gain of 69 cm, while the floor stays a fairly narrow 96 cm. Tall and compact boxes load easily; long panels struggle against that short floor. Watch the 78 cm loading sill with a 23 cm drop to the floor, so you lift over the lip, then down into the well.
About the HEMNES Chest of 8 drawers, white stain, 160x96 cm package
The HEMNES chest of 8 drawers ships in three packs and weighs 60.8 kg in total. The largest carton runs 164 cm by 54 cm by 6 cm, which is too long for many hatchbacks seats up but slots into most folded boots. Estates and SUVs take it without folding. The pack is thin, rigid, and prints face-down on the top board, so a scratch shows. At the boot lip, lay the long pack flat first, slide it forward against the seatback, then place the smaller cartons next to it, not on top.
On pickup day
The verdict is no. This HEMNES arrives as three boxes and the largest is 164 cm long, while the C3 loads through an 88 cm wide opening. Seats up, the big carton overshoots by 48.8 cm even turned diagonally. Fold the rear bench and the gap drops to 12.8 cm, close but still out. The other two boxes would slot in fine; it is that 164 cm panel that stops the load. Measure your own longest carton before the trip, since pack sizes vary between ranges.
