Where's the best Car Boot Sales in Glasgow/Renfrewshire

A question about : Where's the best Car Boot Sales in Glasgow/Renfrewshire

Hoping to do a car boot sale this weekend. Anyone know where the best ones are in Glasgow/Renfrewshire area. Last time I did one (many moons ago) I went to Blochairn Market so don't want to go back there. Also want to get rid of some of my Tesco toiletries but don't want to be charged as a trader. Anyone any ideas?
Thanks in advance

• There used to be a fairly big one in paisley near the town centre, but I haven't been there for a long long time. There is one at yoker (holm) park in clydebank and one at the homebase in milngavie if that is any good to you. Both are fairly busy if its nice

• polmadie is indoors and good on a wet day
  a friend tells me the one at ayr racetrack is nice- may be a bit far out for you though
• There is one at Crossford, Lanark on a Sunday. Its on the clyde valley route. It takes place in a big field, so if it sunny its really nice. We ended up doing a car boot there by default as we turned up at 5.30 in the morning at Blochairn to be told it was full!!!! People had been turning up the night before for their pitch.

• Overton Farm is great come the summer months, but for size and popularity you can't beat Blochairn (fruit market) in Glasgow on a Sunday.
  https://www.boot-fairs.co.uk has details of regular boot sales and one-offs and sometimes the one-offs are best for getting rid of toys, games, family stuff. Toiletries are one of those things that don't sell well from a stall at a boot fair in my experience.
• CAR BOOT SALES in GLASGOW
  Check out this car boot sale at Polmadie in the south side of Glasgow (near Hampden football stadium). Open Wed, Sat and Sun, pitches from Ј10-20. All undercover. Haven't been myself but hope to clear out some junk this week.
  Sorry, this site won't let me attach a web link so search internet for POLMADIE CAR BOOT SALE
  Also a huuuge car boot sale at BLOCHAIRN in the north of the city, north of Dennistoun at the Blochairn fruit market, off junction 14 of the M8, near the gas works - if you can find it and get there early enough in the morning. There's some info on theis one on the Dennistoun.co.uk website
• Blochairn is definitely busier than Crossford but prices tend to be cheaper due to the competition. There are a few people that sell toiletries in Blochairn and seem to do OK. Used to be a lot of people selling Boots stuff before the factory in Airdrie went, often soap from Soapworks and Avon reps also.
• there's a car boot sale in wallneuk north church car park paisley tomorrow saturday 11th june from 8.30am - 1pm, for paisley car boot sales keep a eye on paisley org uk website events guide the car boot is held in the car park at rear and the gate opens at 8.30 to allow cars and punters in at the same time which i thing is great
• Can't be bothered with Blochairn, anyone know of any local ones in Renfrewshire coming up?
• i think polmadie car boot is better run than blochairn.
• Hi,
  Does anyone know of any car boot sales coming up in Renfrewshire in September.
  Thanks
• I've heard that Polmadie is useless to sell at but have never actually done it.
  Blochairn has always been good for us but about 10 o'clock there are a load of folk that start really wanting something for nothing. You just need to stand your ground (and make sure you have the item in your hand otherwise they have a tendancy to walk off with it)
  I don't know why you stayed until 4pm though, if you're there as early as 1 you should have your pick of sites. We go around 3.30 and get a site at the grass bank and leave around 12. Loads of folk had gazebos up this week to deal with th rain!
• What time can you set up from at Blochairn and what time to the buyers start arriving?
  Thanks
• Blochairn you need to be there for about 2-3am is to get a pitch however if the weather isn't looking so good youmay not have to be there so early.
  You get let in about 4-4.30ish and buyers will be at your car door before you can even open it with their little head torches and everything....you have never seen anything like it it's hilarious!!
  We take the in car dvd player and oh watches that while lo and I sleep.
• I didn't realise you had to go that early in the morning !!!! My OH and I were thinking of going to one but that time just seems indecent!
