Even better!!!

If the smell of your smuggler's bay plastic has dissipated, now the vault will stink with a vengeance all over again.

I have a little different strategy with truck beds. I can generally fill the floor up enough that stuff doesn't move around. The painted steel bed of my F-150 was way too slippery, but at least it allowed me to load it from the rear by continually pushing stuff in and sliding it all forward. The Cybertruck is a lot less slippery, but smooth enough that most stuff, plastic tool cases, carboard boxes, coolers, duffle bags, etc. can be loaded using the same strategy.

I also carry around a sheet of lightweight scrap closed cell foam about 1/4" thick that often assists with the unloading without getting in the bed. I remove all the stuff within arms reach then grab and pull on the trailing edge of the foam and slide everything else out to the tailgate. It works with most loads, as long as the cargo is not too heavy. It's stiff enough that I can still load it by sliding items on top of it.

For smaller loads, I have a stretchy lightweight cargo net just forward of the tailgate. I can push stuff into it, backpacks, duffle bags, grocery bags, coolers, chairs, bags of leaves, etc. and fill up the rear third of the bed. This makes it really easy to unload and keeps things from flying forward if I need to step on the brakes suddenly.

Oh trust me, I do not miss that old smell.

These don't smell bad at all. I now have one in the truck, and 3 in the garage.
