I once rented a cargo van to buy a mattress and bed frame from IKEA. It turned out that I didn't need the van at all and could have packed everything into the 4-door sedan I had at the time. Part of it was because the mattress was rolled up in a compact manner. I seem to recall that the van could easily fit in one spot.
