Most are in the South West (6), the East Midlands (3) and the East of England (3). 32% are free for buyers to enter and 4 are indoors or under cover.

Afternoon boots suit families, shift workers and anyone who does not fancy a 6am start. Sellers still set up an hour or two before the gates open, and prices tend to soften in the last hour whatever time the sale started. Add your postcode to sort them by distance.

Good to know

Frequently asked questions

Are there car boot sales in the afternoon?

Yes. 19 car boot sales listed here open to buyers at midday or later, mostly indoor markets and a few evening boots in summer. Every listing shows its own buyer and seller times.

What time do afternoon car boot sales finish?

Usually two to four hours after opening, so a 1pm boot winds down around 4pm. The last hour is the best time for bundle deals as sellers would rather not pack things back in the car.

Is it worth going to a car boot sale late?

For bargains, yes: prices drop sharply in the final hour. For choice, no: dealers and early birds take the best stock in the first hour of any sale, whatever time it opens.
