From rolling Peak District fields to flat Lincolnshire farmland, there is a pitch for every bargain hunter, with most sales running through the spring and summer season.
The region is home to some genuinely famous events. The Tansley car boot near Matlock is widely regarded as one of the biggest and best in the East Midlands, while the Ripley Giant draws huge Saturday crowds in Derbyshire. You will also find favourites like Quorn, Measham and Croft in Leicestershire, the popular Hucknall and Calverton sales in Nottinghamshire, the Rutland Showground near Oakham, and Torksey and Stickney out in Lincolnshire.
