Hunt for bargains at the Battersea Car Boot Sale

The weekly car boot sale held at Battersea Technology College is one of only a few proper car boot sales in central London. It’s held every Sunday afternoon from 1.30pm - 5pm, so unlike some Sunday Markets you don’t have to rush out of bed.


It’s not a fancy sale, but you can pick up a few bargains and there is plenty of proper old-fashioned car boot tat to sort through.

When a correspondent popped by recently she spotted old cameras, record players, DVDs, CDs, bathroom products, sunglasses and more. There was also a bakery stall, an ice cream van and a burger van, for all your culinary needs.

The sale is open all year round except two weeks over Christmas, but sellers must book in advance on 07941 383 588, and there is a fee.
