Guides

Practical guides around flea markets – for organizers, sellers and visitors.

For organizers

Planning, legal basics and how the day itself runs.

From date and area to winning over neighbours and the day itself – plan your market step by step.

Permits, Sundays and holidays, public space and insurance – what applies to private and to commercial markets.

Do volunteers need a health certificate? What really applies to cake, chilling and allergens.

Every form at a glance – from garage sales to children’s bazaars and club markets, and which one fits your plan.

From clearing out to setting up – and what to do with the rest.

Preparation, setup, change and selling tricks – make your own stand relaxed and successful.

Rules of thumb and concrete guide values for clothing, toys, books, furniture and more.

When clearing out turns into a trade: the chamber of commerce criteria in plain words – and what it means for organizers.

Donating, charity shops, recycling centre, bulky waste: the order that keeps things out of your cellar.

Buying well – and knowing what to leave alone.

Plan your route, pack right, haggle well: find the best pieces without walking a metre too far.

Electricals, toys, bicycles – and the few things better bought new (car seats, helmets).
