Remove the back seat and see if you can pop it open that way . Perhaps a locksmith or AAA . Hit the button and bang on the trunk .

Without the keys, even if you push the glovebox button, the trunk won't open. But there is an emergency fix for you..... You can manually access your trunk without having to get it open, but it's going to might take a bit of time. Start by finding the clips underneath the rear seats in your Avalon. Pull up on the clips to release the back seat’s cushion and remove it. Once the seat cushion is removed, there should be 3-4 bolts that keep the backrests in place. Remove those bolts and lift the seat backs out. Now that the seats are out of the way, you can get into your trunk. Once you’re in your trunk, you can either remove anything that you need to or even open the trunk using the emergency latch.
