Measure smart

What to measure.

Four numbers decide nearly every fit check. Get these right and the rest follows.

  1. 01The dresser width, height, and depth
  2. 02Cargo length with the rear seats folded
  3. 03Liftgate opening height and width
  4. 04Whether the dresser can safely lie on its back with the drawers taped shut

Don't make these

Common mistakes.

Most “it didn't fit” stories trace back to one of these oversights.

  1. ⚠Trying to load the dresser standing up
  2. ⚠Measuring cargo length with the seats up
  3. ⚠Forgetting the liftgate opening height for a dresser on its back
  4. ⚠Leaving the drawers loose so they slide out

Frequently asked

Questions we keep getting.

  • Will a dresser fit in an SUV?

    Usually only on its back with the rear seats folded. A standard dresser is 58 to 64 inches wide, so the SUV needs that much seats-down cargo length. Tape the drawers shut and slide it in flat.

    01
  • Can a dresser lie on its back in an SUV?

    Yes, and that is the usual way. Lying flat, the limiting number becomes the dresser depth, about 16 to 20 inches, against the cargo height, and the dresser width against the cargo length.

    02
  • What size dresser fits a compact SUV?

    A compact SUV with about 60 inches of seats-down length takes a dresser up to about 58 inches wide lying on its back. Taller three-drawer chests fit more easily.
