What counts as a car boot sale — names, regions and the rules of thumb
What to expect
You will typically find bric-a-brac, kitchenware, books, DVDs and records, toys, tools, garden gear, clothes, vintage finds and the odd antique. Early birds get the best finds, but prices drop in the last hour. Bring coins and small notes, a strong bag, and check whether the sale is on grass or hardstanding after rain. In winter many boot sales move indoors or take a break, so check the date before you go.
Every listing here is free to browse and shows real photos, a price range, the dates and hours, and an approximate map pin. Save the ones worth a stop, get directions straight to the door, and plan the morning before you leave the house. Running a car boot sale yourself?
