Is it necessary to fully cover the car trunk?

If the trunk is not frequently used to place items, or only a small number of items are placed, a non-full-coverage trunk mat is more practical. However, for heavy trunk users who often place a large number of items with sharp edges in the trunk, a full-coverage mat is more appropriate. The functions of a trunk mat are as follows: 1. Anti-slip: When traveling, if there is a trunk mat, the items you carry can be safely placed in the trunk of your car. The trunk mat is designed with an anti-slip surface to prevent items from scattering due to bumps, providing the most thorough protection. 2. Waterproof: The material of the trunk mat includes PE material for waterproofing, UV protection, strong toughness, and resistance to oil stains. It can prevent mud, sand, snow, water, and oil stains from contaminating items in the trunk, such as luggage. 3. Anti-contamination: It can be used to transport goods, plants, rain gear, or place damp items. The three-dimensional high-edge design effectively prevents dirt from spilling and protects the car from contamination. 4. Protection: Made of high-density foam material, it has excellent shock absorption and sound insulation, providing complete protection for every corner of the trunk against various intrusions.
I've been driving for over a decade and frequently haul construction materials and tools. A full-coverage trunk liner has been incredibly practical. Last time I helped a friend move, the metal edges of the toolbox scratched several marks in the trunk - if only I'd installed a full-coverage mat beforehand. These liners are like putting protective armor on your trunk. Whether it's fishing gear leaking water or gardening tools covered in mud, a quick wipe with a wet towel cleans it right up. The 3D grooved versions work even better - drink bottles won't roll around even when placed sideways. I recommend choosing TPE material - no weird smells even under summer sun exposure. After all, the trunk takes the most abuse in our vehicles, and proper protection can make a noticeable difference in resale value when selling used cars.
