About the VW Golf 2024 boot
The Golf's boot is wide but short. The opening is 104 cm across and the floor keeps 101 cm at its narrowest, so wide boxes have room. Every box goes in over a 68 cm loading sill, with 62 cm of clear height above it, and the floor sits 16 cm below the sill. Length is the limit: with the rear seats up you get 76 cm of floor, which favours wide boxes over long ones. Long flat packs are a job for the folded set-up, where the floor runs to 148 cm. Fold the seats before you load anything long, not after.
About the MALM Chest of 6 drawers, white stained oak veneer, 160x78 cm package
The heavy part of this MALM chest is one long, flat box: 169 cm × 50 cm × 8 cm at 35.4 kg. Two smaller boxes of 84 cm × 46 cm × 10 cm follow at 17.3 kg each, so the job is three boxes and 70 kg. The long one decides the boot floor length: 169 cm, lying straight. With that much weight in a box 8 cm thick, there is little to grip. Lift it on its long edge with one person at each end, and get it into the boot before the two small boxes go in.
