A/The heavy box that is in the garage

Please tell me if my understanding is correct.


Situation: I am asking Mr. XX to help me.


I say, “Please carry out a heavy box that is in the garage.” = He did not know that the existence of the heavy box in the garage, but now he knows the existence of it from my words. I am asking Mr. XX to carry out the heavy box. There may be or may not be other heavy boxes anywhere else, but I am no focusing on other boxes, if any.


I say, “Please carry out the heavy box that is in the garage.” = Mr. XX already knows the existence of the heavy box in the garage. I am asking Mr. XX to carry out the heavy box.
