What is a Car boot Sale?
Car boot sales is mainly a UK form of market where private individuals come together to sell household and garden goods. The term refers to the selling of items from a car's "boot" (UK), or "trunk" (U.S.). Although a small proportion of sellers are professional traders selling new goods or seconds, the goods on sale are often used but no longer wanted personal items, Car boot sales are a way of focusing a large group of people in one place to recycle still useful but unwanted domestic items that previously would have been thrown away.

Locations
Car boot sales are often held in the grounds of schools and other community buildings, or in grassy fields or car parks. Usually they take place on weekend mornings. Sellers will typically pay a nominal fee for their pitch, and arrive with their goods in the boot (trunk) of their car, hence the name. Usually the items are then unpacked onto folding trestle tables, a blanket or tarpaulin, or simply the ground. Entry to the general public is usually free, although sometimes a small admission charge is made. Advertised opening times are often not strictly adhered to, and in many cases the nature of the venue itself makes it impossible to prevent keen bargain hunters from wandering in as soon as the first stallholders arrive.

History.
The world's first 'Boot Fair' or 'Boot Sale' was held at Nepicar Farm, Wrotham Heath, Kent in September 1980. The title or name 'Boot Fair' was coined by the originator and organiser, Barry Peverett, in order to create the curiosity that ultimately ensured that car boot sale events became a run-away popular success and a burgeoning nationwide weekend activity.
