Car Boot Market at Grey Lynn
Since 2011, we have been running the Grey Lynn car boot market. It is a great local alternative to running your own garage sale, no advertising necessary (we take care of that), no strangers descending on your home and no need for the hassles with Facebook marketplace and Trade Me.
How it Works
You can sell from a table, your car boot or from the ground (bring a mat). The market is for second hand items only – no new stuff as we think there is already enough stuff on our planet..
- Date: Last Sunday of each month (except December when it is the Sunday before Christmas)
- Location: Grey Lynn RSC Carpark, 1 Francis Street, Grey Lynn
- Time: 8.00 am - 11.30
