You can rest assured that security is a top priority at Hatchbag and we will always do everything we can to keep your details safe.
Q. My vehicle isn’t listed, how do I get a boot liner for my vehicle?
A. Due to the large number of vehicles available and our limited design resources, all new patterns are created based on a priority list. This priority list is populated through our model not listed form, which can be found in the Find My Vehicle section at the top right of every page.
Enter your details in this form along with the vehicle you require a boot liner for, and when a liner becomes available we will be in touch
We are not able to design one-off liners, or bump a specific vehicle up the priority queue.

Q. Your liner covers the power socket in my boot/your liner covers the vents in my boot etc.
A. Our liners are designed to offer complete protection to your car boot. In order to do this it is often necessary to cover features such as power sockets, internal lights and vents, or handles on the tailgate. If you require access to one or more of these features while the boot liner is in place then please take a look at our blog explaining how you can do this – https://www.hatchbag.co.uk/blog/cutting-openings-into-boot-liner/

Q. What is Autoglym Intensive Tar Remover? Can you supply it with your fitting kit?
A. If your Fitting Instructions involve sticking loop adhesive pads onto the plastic or metal trims of your vehicle, we very strongly recommend that you clean them first with Autoglym Intensive Tar Remover. This Petroleum based cleaner will remove traces of silicone from the trims. Silicone is applied during manufacture, and is a component of many valeting products. If there are any traces of silicone on the trims the fastener will not stick. Autoglym is available from Halfords and other car supplies stores. Due to hazardous nature of the product our courier are NOT licensed to send Autoglym Intensive Tar Remover.

We do not offer any other colours at this time, however, we do offer two tone liners using two of the above colours. There will be an additional charge for this service so please contact [email protected] for a price.
Q. Why has my order been declined?

We now have a video that shows how to clean you boot liner – (hyperlink to video page). If your liner needs a more complete clean, then you can remove the liner and hose down.

A. Please contact customer services ASAP. You can either call us on 0151 203 6555 or email [email protected] if you have already received your liner then please see the question “I would like to return my liner”
Q. My item is faulty, what do I do?
A. First thing to do is let us know as soon as you become aware of any fault in the liner. Ideally you would take photos of the fault and send these to [email protected], this will allow us to assess the problem and decide on the best course of action. This isn’t always possible but it is still very important you let us know as soon as possible, you can call us on 0151 203 6555 or email [email protected] . Our products are guaranteed against faulty materials and workmanship for one year. This is in addition to your statutory rights. Our guarantee only covers material and workmanship and does not cover damage caused by misuse or general wear and tear.
Q. What is the nearside and offside?
A. The nearside is the side closest to the kerb (not including central reservations) in the UK, this is the passenger side of the vehicle (the left hand side when looking into the boot) The offside is the side furthest away from the kerb (not including central reservations) in the UK this is the driver’s side of the vehicle (the right hand side when looking into the boot). If we ever reference nearside and offside on our website this is the UK understanding of the terms (nearside is left and offside is right when looking into the vehicle from the boot).
Q. How do I maintain my boot liner? (Caring for your boot liner)
A. All of our boot liners are made of high quality materials and are designed to last. However as with all things a little bit of care and attention is required - we recommend you regularly clean your boot liner with a non-corrosive cleaner (just water will suffice) making sure to pay careful attention to any seams and corners. When you have cleaned the boot liner you must allow it time to dry properly before using again.
If for any reason your liner comes into contact with a corrosive (salts, acids etc..) then you must thoroughly rinse all of your liner - this may stop the corrosive agent from rotting threads/bindings which are not able to withstand chemicals and salts.
