Hope this works.  Here is my first attempt at packing the roofbox.

And another pic just to show off my dinky little dustpan and brush set I got from Homebase for £1  lol

I really need to get the sleeping bags smaller somehow, or maybe unroll them and lay them flat?

Don't know if this tip is helpful to you, but here goes.  I always fit the roofbox to the roofbars before it goes on the roof.  That's because the fittings that are furthest away from the lid are bu$$ers to screw down when its on the roof.


Thank you soooooo much for this Claydoncamper! I'm a short a*** with short arms and I've just struggled so much trying to get the things off after just purchasing a roof box. Will be so much easier going back on now :-)
