A load floor system 10 for a vehicle load space, the system comprising: a load floor having a load portion 24, a slave portion 26 and a pivot portion 28; and a guide 20, wherein: the load portion is slidable within the guide and connectable along a forward edge 24f to a rearward edge 26r of the slave portion; and the pivot portion is pivoted along a forward edge 28f and connectable along a rear edge 28r to a forward edge 26f of the slave portion, wherein the pivot portion pivots in dependence on the position of the load portion in the guide. The load floor may therefore move between deployed and retracted positions (figures 7a, 7c), thus allowing items located on the load floor to be moved forwards and backwards within the load space (figures 3, 4). The system may also form a bulkhead at a forward most position of the load space (figure 4). Also disclosed is a variable length luggage strap comprising two strap portions selectively connectable via magnetic elements (figures 10, 11).
