Boot organiser fitted and secured properly in your car. Stops shopping sliding around and makes your boot actually functional instead of a chaos zone.
Stop Your Shopping Sliding Around
You know the feeling - every corner sends your shopping bags flying, bottles rolling under seats, loose veg everywhere. A properly fitted boot organiser sorts that in half an hour.
💡 Pro tip: Most people buy an organiser and just plonk it in the boot. It slides around unless you secure it properly - that's where I come in.

🔧 DIY Tips
Fancy doing it yourself? Here's how to get it right:
🔧 What you'll need
- Your boot organiser
- Heavy-duty velcro strips (if not included)
- Scissors
- Cloth and cleaner for boot floor
- Tie-down straps or bungee cords (for some types)
📐 Positioning it right
- Put your car on level ground
- Clean the boot floor where velcro will stick
- Position organiser empty first - work out best spot
- Mark where it sits before attaching anything
🔗 Securing methods
- Velcro strips: Stick to boot floor AND organiser base - both sides
- Cargo hooks: Thread through organiser loops, hook to boot tie-points
- Tie-downs: Run straps through organiser, anchor to seat mounts
⚠️ Common mistakes
- Not cleaning boot floor before velcro - it won't stick
- Only velcro-ing one side - needs both base AND organiser
- Positioning it empty when you always carry heavy shopping
- Forgetting you need boot floor access for spare wheel
💡 Pro trick: Load it up heavy and drive around the block before final securing. You'll quickly find if the position works or annoys you.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.
Good to Know
🚗 Multiple cars? If you've got a few vehicles, I can fit matching organisers in each. Bulk jobs get better rates.
Often combined with:
- Boot protector fitting (stops scuffs and spills)
- Dog guard installation
- Roof box fitting for extra storage
Car-specific options: Some cars have built-in cargo management systems with slots and rails. If yours does, I'll use those instead of velcro - much neater.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's a boot organiser and why would I need one?
It's a fabric or rigid divider that sits in your boot and creates compartments. Stops your shopping bags tipping over, prevents tools sliding around, and generally makes your boot far more practical. Game-changer if you do a big weekly shop.
Can you fit it to my car?
If it fits in your boot, I can secure it properly. Most are universal but some are car-specific. If you've bought one, bring it along. If not, I can advise on what'll work best for your car and usage.
Do I need to provide the organiser?
Usually yes - you buy the one you want (Halfords, Amazon, etc) and I'll fit it properly. Some need velcro strips or tie-downs securing, which I'll sort. If you're not sure which to get, send me your car model and I'll point you in the right direction.
How long does fitting take?
Honestly? Usually under half an hour. Some just need positioning and velcro, others need tie-down straps threading through. Either way it's quick - often done while we chat about what else you need sorting.
Will it stay put once fitted?
That's the whole point of getting it fitted properly. I'll use the right fixings (velcro strips, cargo hooks, tie-downs) so it doesn't shift around. A loose organiser is worse than no organiser.
