Yeah, but loads like that are often dirty and spill shit everywhere. Plus, there's all the bending and twisting to load and unload.
SOURCE: I used my tiny convertible for years to haul dirt, kayaks, lumber, whatever. It sucked and ruined the insides.
Sheet. Tarp. Or hell that little liner that's already in the trunk you can take out and shake off
Now that's a fair shout, though I just throw a plastic tarp down when I'm moving shit like that in my Golf. It's a non- issue then.
I used plastic bins to haul bulk compost home in my hatchback and the interior survived just fine.
