I use the trunk cargo net for groceries, but I could see getting long over door type plastic hooks to hook in the back seat pocket to hook grocery bags to to keep them from sliding. I keep a few longer items (umbrella and reach grabber) under my back seats so a partition wouldn’t work in my case. https://a.co/d/02UQaMT2

I use a different version of the same net, close to the tailgate. Very handy for groceries and random items. Quick to unclip and throw in the smuggler's bay, too.

I use this:

Strangest thing. It fits right under the seat like it was made to do that. Put the seat up, insert your bags. Collect when home.

If you are looking for more than just something for a few bags, this won't do.

I'm pretty used to putting the two or three grocery bags or other small items on the floor behind the drivers seat in my CT. Carried this practice over from the F-150s I've had in the past.
The CT has a big flat floor back there and the groceries in plastic bags will find their way all over the width of the floor by the time I get home.
I had cut a large piece of plastic from a storage tub for my F-150s but it isn't big enough to span the CT back seat. Just a tub placed back there would have sides a bit to high to reach over.
Is there anything on the market to hold groceries or other small stuff in place on the floor behind the drivers seat?
Frunk when the CT is parked in a garage is not easily reachable. Check out the rubberized bed liners. When I travel now even slippery items stay in place. Works better than I imagined. Available at Amazon.

It’s interesting that a topic about groceries has so much traction on a Cybertruck Owners forum. Makes you think…maybe the Cybertruck IS for the everyday person

I considered the bed of the truck, but the tail gate seems bit longer than my previous F-150s. Ya gotta lean in to get the smaller stuff that would end up against the bed divider. If just in from the rain, I get my shirt and trousers wet from the rain on the taligate.
Geezo, I just complain about everything.

Yeah, I get it. Have you seen the boxes that strap under the back seats? there are several versions. I purchased one set of 3 they velcro together and have lids. They work unless its very heavy and bulky. Great for bags of groceries.

I have not used the cabin to store things, that’s what sedans are for 😬

I have an assortment of collapsible bins, L-track cargo net than spans the bed, same for the frunk. Insulated bag for the smugglers bay.

Bed liner helps prevent things from sliding around. Regarding the cabin you may have to get non-slip surface if you’re going to use plastic bags. Totes and carpet surface may work as some have mentioned

Weathertech makes a set of 4 "corners". They have non-slip on the bottom and the weight of the grocery bag (or whatwever you put in a corner) keeps them from sliding around. I've used them for years in my MY with great success. Not sure how they would be in the back of a CT.

Forget the hard containers for the back seat. They just aren't flexible enough. Do a search on Amazon for "rope baskets for storage" These baskets are GREAT, lightweight, flexible, and fit right UNDER the seat if you need them out of the way. Yes, some of them are a bit taller than the space under the seat but the top of the basket just scrunches down when you drop the seat down.

Check these out. There are a TON of different sizes and shapes so find a set that will work. They are less expensive than hard plastic and far more convenient. They come in different colors too.

They are not expensive at all. The ones I pictured here are in the $20-25 range for all those in the picture. Not each, for the whole set!

I’m confused. I fill standard size reusable grocery bags to the rim and they fit fine in my frunk. Maybe there’s more than one standard?

I have also purchased some plastic hooks that installed on the top of the frunk liner, which I hook the bag handles into to prevent them from toppling over.

I went to Target and thought about this thread when I put the bags in my frunk. "I don't need to bend them down, that's what the reliable posters on the forum said." Sure enough, these bags popped the frunk open. At this point I was getting rained on and was unhappy, then I did the reliable fold the bage 1/3 into itself trick and the frunk closed.

The frunk is 2 inches too short to be truly useful. Unless they redesigned the truck for some of the other posters on here.

Those do appear slightly bigger and are stiffer than the fabric ones I use. Could you have defective sensor? I see on FB that other owners have had similar problems with the frunk not closing on stuff that shouldn’t prevent the frunk from closing. Tesla replaced a sensor to fix it.

If my frunk hits anything, including something it can bend like a bag handle, it pops open. Not sure this is a defect or safety feature, but any obstruction it immediately opens.
