After moving cross country in my VW GTI, my suggestion is to avoid packing things in boxes and use soft containers as much as possible. This allows you to maximize the available space. And pack soft things against the tint to avoid scratches and scrapes. My tint got a nasty gouge that could have been prevented.

Motor safely, and keep in mind that a fully loaded MINI does not handle quite as quickly as it does unladen.

Yeah, good idea Yuca. Ive only got one or boxes and the rest are duffle bags. I guess Ill see if I can position the box on the center away from windows.
