The present invention relates to a combination of a motor-vehicle door, in particular, that of a passenger car or commercial vehicle, and a storage box that is used to accommodate utensils, objects, and the like. The storage box has a shell, which includes a lower segment and an upper segment. The vehicle door includes an interior trim panel, which has a storage compartment open at the top. The inner contour of the storage compartment is shaped to be complementary to the outer contour of the lower shell segment, so that the lower shell segment can be vertically inserted into the storage compartment, the upper shell segment then projecting upwards from the storage compartment, and laterally resting against an essentially vertical panel of the interior trim panel.
