Frequently Asked Questions
Q:
Hours of Operation?

A:
A. We are open Sundays only. We don’t have an official close time it is really dependent upon weather & crowds usually significantly less busy after 1:00 pm.

We plan to open Sunday April 16th 2023.

Q:
What happens if it rains?

A:
We are an outdoor, open air market so heavy rain shuts us down, usually best to call the morning of because it may be raining where you are but not at the Flea Market.

Q:
Do I need a reservation?

A:
No, you do not need a reservation. In 40+ years we've never turned away a vendor. Just show up and we will have a space for you.

Q:
How much is a space?

A:
$35 per day

3 x 5 table rentals available for $3 each or feel free to bring your own!

A space is approximately 20 x 20 wide. Multiple adjoining spaces available.

Q:
Can I get a specific space?

A:
Depends, spaces are given away on a first come first serve basis. So if you want a specific space come early. Only pre-paid monthly and seasonal spaces are guaranteed.

We do our best to honor your space request and we almost always are able to accommodate getting you to your desired area.

We do this because many people use to make a reservation and for an array of reasons (some legit, some not) did not show up the day of their reservation or they would show very late. Since we would hold their spot we had gaps all over the field and then would try to squeeze them into their reserved space as they arrived. The abutting dealers would see a gap and inevitability spread out a little making the reserved space smaller we would then have to move all the abutters back into their spaces usually juggling tables, cars, and items for sale. As you can imagine it never worked out well for anybody.


Q:
I am setting up as a vendor, how many cars can I take in my spot?

A:
There is usually only one vehicle allowed per space however we allow extra vehicles to enter and unload but they must be removed after unloading. Sometimes two small cars can fit into single space.

Q:
What can/can't I sell?

A:
No food sales, pornography, or anything otherwise illegal. If unsure, check with us first.

Q:
Can I bring my dog?

A:
Friendly, leashed, dogs are welcome at the Hollis Flea Market.

Q:
When is the best to arrive?

A:

Shopping at the Hollis flea market is a great way to find everything from antiques to appliances, clothing, household goods, tools and toys as well as unique items and save money in the process. You can do everything from decorate your home to dressing for success all by shopping the Hollis Flea Market. Think creatively when shopping. New uses for old items means unique decorative accessories: old balusters can become candlesticks or shelf supports, anything sturdy and big enough can become a coffee table with a sheet of glass across its top. Vintage clothing can become a chic new outfit or a costume.


Advice: Bargain with a light touch. It's half the fun of shopping flea markets but bargaining nicely often gets the best results. For example, a good strategy is to ask if the price is firm instead of immediately offering half the quoted price. Also, many vendors will give bigger discounts if you're buying several items at once.
