There is disclosed a load floor system (230, 520, 540, 600) for a rear compartment of a road vehicle (10). The system (230, 520, 540, 600) includes a load floor (230) for bearing a load (240) placed thereupon when the floor (230) is disposed in a horizontal orientation. The floor (230) is pivotal about a hinge arrangement disposed at a forward edge thereof. The load floor (230) is pivotable from a horizontal orientation to a raised angle, for example to a substantially vertical orientation. Moreover, the system (230, 520, 540, 600) includes two clips (600) operable to resiliently engage with lateral edges (650) of the floor (230) when the floor (230) is at the raised angle for retaining the floor (230) at the raised angle.
