This is one of the coolest things at the drive-in......right after the movies of course! Held every Sunday morning for as long as I can remember and probably about the biggest weekly trash and treasure markets in SA.
Cheap to get in and the entry is well and truly covered by the savings. I especially like to go here when it's fruit season for peaches, apricots, plums and the likes that are more seasonal and usually a lot more expensive. Heapos cheaper to buy them from here. Better still get a few of you together and buy big 10 or 20kg bags then split them up. Works out even cheaper again.
There's always some regulars that go and sell tools, bikes, games, clothing, sunglasses, dvd's, electrical and then all the people that just go to get rid of a whole heaps of stuff. You have to go here to sell at least once just for the experience though. You get there when it is still pitch black. You can't see what you are doing and Asians are almost climbing in your car with their torches to see what you have. If you take anything fantastic it will probably be unloaded for you, if you get my drift. So get in early for the best bargains and coolest stuff.
And as Chloe said take your cash, no eftpos machines here. And I recommend you barter or haggle for anything and everything. People are there because they want to sell this stuff and it's their trash, get the best deal you can.
Big Tip: much easier to just go for street parking on Main North or preferably Port Wakefield Roads. If you get parking inside it is way too hard to get out once it's packed with patrons! read more
