Default Boot Liner

I'm trying to find a boot liner that.....

A) is sealable
B) is big enough to fill the car with the rear seats down. So around 1800 x 1400 x 1000.
C) is waterproof

I use the car to carry bikes, lots grass cuttings, other garden waste and random house improvement waste. I should've bought a van rather than a V60 !!

The closest I've been able to find is the SafeBag range by roofbox.co.uk.

Whilst there is no specific Volvo options, the bags come in three sizes - way too small, too small and too big !

Has anyone found any other options? Any ideas? Any experiences?

BMB Hatchbag, a great UK company based in Liverpool, they will tailor it for you exact needs at a very reasonable price
They did me a rubber liner to suit my exact needs...really superb service

It may not help, but I find the "jumbo" bags that builders sand etc come in handy for transporting grass cutting etc.

I use the jumbo bags for the grass cuttings so they are easier to throw in the skip. But I find the grass tends to work its way into and throughout the car no matter how well I try to seal them.

So trying to find a full boot liner that will act as a kind of inner bag - that I can then put other bags in.

Hatchbag.co.uk look good. I'm wondering if they are a bit too good though. And by the time they've custom built a 'bag roof' it'll be v expensive.

If you give them a bell and tell them your requirement and budget, they will find a solution for you...I had mine cut from a roll of rubber to the contour of my boot and then flaps to go up seat backs when folded and over top of bumper when tailgate is open, because it is "off the roll" grippy knurled rubber it was very affordable...
You can't put a price on protecting your pride and joy's interior...especially an XC60

It is worth a call to hatchbag.co.uk at the very least. Can't discount them without having a chat first.

Ta for the tip.
