Be Realistic With Prices – Because everyone who comes to a car boot is on the lookout for a bargain, you need to be realistic with how you price things. Part of the charm of a car boot is the ability to get rid of things easily, and if you price too high you won’t make a sale.

Get there Early – This is really important as many people will turn up at a car boot sale early on to get the first look at everything for sale, so you need to be ready for them! Setting up early gives you the best chance to sell your wares.

Have the Right Equipment – You don’t need a lot of equipment for a car boot (apart from the car of course!) However, having certain things will help you – a table to display items on that folds up for transport, a tin that can be locked for money and a clothing hanging rail if you are selling clothing are all good things to have.
