<!--FAQ QUESTION END-->
<!--ANSWER START-->
<article>
<div class="keepVueWhiteSpace pt-10">In order to find the right size roof box, you need to consider the size of the load you want your roof box to carry. Roof boxes come in:
1/2 width and 3/4 width roof boxes allow additional room on the top of your car for bikes, whereas full width roof boxes take up the full width of your car's roof, making them ideal for large loads when going on holiday or moving house.

<!--FAQ QUESTION END-->
<!--ANSWER START-->
<article>
<div class="keepVueWhiteSpace pt-10">Here at Halfords, we offer a range of roof boxes to meet every requirement. To find which one suits your needs, have a think about capacity and how you intend to use the box.
Also consider how you want it to open and what materials you want the box to be made from, as more cost-effective boxes are made from thinner plastics that may vibrate in the wind.
For more information, have a read of our <a href="https://www.halfords.com/motoring/buying-guides/roof-boxes-buyers-guide.html">buyer's guide</a>. </div>

<label for="q2"> <h3> <strong>Q.</strong> How do I fit a roof box? <i></i></h3> </label>
<!--FAQ QUESTION END-->
<!--ANSWER START-->
<article>
<div class="keepVueWhiteSpace pt-10">First, you need to ensure that you’ve got a pair of roof bars installed as you need something to attach your roof box to. If your car didn’t come with roof bars as standard, then you can find a suitable (and compatible) set by entering your vehicle registration number in our <a href="https://www.halfords.com/motoring/roof-bars-roof-boxes/roof-bars/">online checker</a>.
Fitting a roof box to those roof bars is a fairly simply process and the instructions that come in the box should walk you through it step-by-step. Keep in mind the weight capacity of your roof bars, the roof box itself and your car roof.
If you need a helping hand with the fitting process, then head to your local Halfords store or you can book in for a fitting online when you purchase your roof bars and/or roof box. </div>

<!--FAQ QUESTION END-->
<!--ANSWER START-->
<article>
<div class="keepVueWhiteSpace pt-10">When it comes to packing your roof box, here are a few tips to bear in mind:
• Be aware of the weight limits for both the roof box itself and for the roof of your car to make sure you don’t overload it.
• Pack lighter items in your roof box and heavier items in your car, as your car’s weight limit is always going to be greater than the roof box’s.
• Spread the weight evenly in your roof box to help create a smooth ride.
• Considering putting your suitcases in your roof box.
• Considering putting awkwardly-shaped items in your roof box.
• Make sure your roof box is properly secured to the roof of your car.
• Secure your locking system so that your roof box doesn’t open by accident.
• Take advantage of straps, hooks and holders to help secure your items. </div>
