Here we answer all of your most frequently asked questions.
Q. How much space is there for sellers?
A. We do not restrict the width sellers have, but do restrict the depth to ensure we can always fit an emergency service vehicle through the selling areas. We have space for around 300-350 sellers.
Q. Can we leave before 1pm?
A. Yes, if you wish to leave before 1pm that is fine, we simply ask you find one of our staff to escort you off, or leave at a snails pace with your hazard lights on.
Q. Will you get rid of our unsold / unwanted stuff?
A. NO! We operate a leave no trace policy on site. Take any unsold / unwanted goods home with you. Sellers found fly tipping will be banned from future carboots.
Q. Are dogs allowed?
A. Yes, on leads at all times in selling areas. Please do not let dogs urinate on sellers tables, its not nice for them. Clean up any dog mess and take home with you, our leave no trace policy applies to dog poo too!
Q. Is there parking on site?
A. Yes, we have over 1,000 parking spaces for public. Exit the site via our top gate only. Brixham Road is too busy to safely exit via the main entrance. Stick to the site speed limit of 5mph and you will not have an issue exiting this way.
Q. How many sellers do you get each week?
A. Every week is different, and seller turnout is impacted primarily by the weather forecast. That said, our statistics show we average 90-100 sellers per week.
Q. I'm thinking of selling at your carboot, is it busy with buyers?
A. Yes, every week our top gate CCTV captures over 1,000 vehicles exiting the site so confidently we can say we have over 1,000 buyers walk around our carboot each week.
Q. What are we not allowed to sell?
A. All of the prohibited items can be found on the previous page under the link "Seller Information".
Q. Do you have toilets on site?
A. Yes, we have 2 portaloos on site. 1 accessible on the hard standing and 1 in the middle of the selling area against the hedgerow. We have plans to install a permanent toilet block soon, but these things take time.
Q. Is there any food and drink for sale?
A. Yes, we have a catering unit on site every week serving hot food and hot and cold drinks.
Q. I've sold at the Carboot here for many years, can I have my preferred spot?
A. We will always try to accommodate but sometimes it simply isn't possible.
Q. Can we access the showground at any time?
A. No. When our gates are open, everyone is welcome, but when they are closed and locked KEEP OUT. Our site is private property, Security Patrol and respond to intrusions and trespassers will be prosecuted.
CCTV covers every entrance.
