Tip #1:
If you have a list of items you are looking for and want first shot at all the goodness, plan on arriving by 7:30 to get in line. The diehard junkers have been known to begin lining up around 6am.
The lines are LONG, but don’t fret, once the gates open at 9am, we will get you in very quickly!
If you do not like crowds, we recommend coming Saturday afternoon or on Sunday.
We will be collecting gently used blankets and adult jackets for the homeless in downtown Phoenix. If you bring a donation you will receive $1 off your entrance fee and support a wonderful organization Meira House! You will also receive $1 off admission by wearing any Junk in the Trunk Vintage Apparel item!
Tip #3:
We have food trucks! Our favorite truck, Waffle Luv will be there with their ever fabulous waffles, Mustache Pretzels, Honey Bears BBQ and lots of other great options. The food is located outside and it can be hot. There will be some shade but a hat and some sunscreen doesn’t hurt. Along with yummy food, we have coffee from Mamas Cold Brew, Tea lattes from Teapressa and drinks served inside all weekend!
Tip #4:
Grab a Friend or two! It is more fun to shop with a buddy and you can save money for parking!
Tip #5:
Make sure to bring your walking shoes! Bring a tote bag for your smaller items and a cart or wagon for your larger items. Bring water and sunscreen (the market is inside, but the food area is outdoors) and cash is always a good idea. Most vendors do take cards and there will be ATMs on the property but having cash may mean snagging that one of a kind item before someone else spots it! It’s also helpful to have a list of items you are looking for so you can stay focused!
Tip #6: Holding ZONE!
We offer an amazing service for our shoppers that is exclusive to our market! We have teamed up with Young Life to help send kids to camp. As a courtesy to you, when you purchase a LARGE piece of furniture, our Young Life staff will carry your item to the holding zone, where upon finishing your shopping you can drive your car around and they will load the item in your car. These kids are doing all the heavy lifting for you, so if you get the chance please tell them thank you and show your appreciation with a tip!
Tip #7:
Stop and enjoy the Fabulous music! We have some amazing musicians lined up for you all weekend!
Derek Brandt, Lee Perreira and Obediah Parker will be inside and Adjustment Needed will be jammin’ oldies outside Saturday morning!
