For the past seven years, new and veteran resellers have flogged everything from pre-loved pieces\u00a0by\u00a0big-name brands to vintage homewares out the trunks of their cars at the bi-monthly market.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Erin Murphy and Steven Lopes, the duo behind the swap meet, launched an additional iteration last year to serve second-hand treasure hunters in Balham.\u00a0Now, they\u2019ve announced that they will also be bringing the weekend market north of the river. From September, Peckham Car Boot is heading to Leyton, hosting monthly events at George Mitchell School in September, October and November.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The organisers have said that they\u2019ll be using these three events as a trial run, and will look to make the event permanent if\u00a0it\u2019s popular with the E10 crowd.<\/p>\n<p>Londoners with an N postcode shouldn\u2019t feel left out, though, because Peckham Car Boot is also planning to trial a market in Stokey. Yep, it\u2019ll be heading to Stoke Newington School for three monthly events from September to \u2018test the waters\u2019. Its founders are encouraging sellers and shoppers to \u2018come down, see what it&#8217;s about, and help us decide if this is a regular thing\u2019.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"e44ab4c4-d67c-a442-134b-d5378b51857b\" class=\"photo lazy inline\" loading=\"lazy\" data-component=\"lazy-embed\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/1787138725_40_image.webp\" alt=\"Peckham Car Boot\" data-caption=\"Peckham Car Boot\" data-credit=\"Photograph: Peckham Car Boot\" data-width-class=\"\" data-image-id=\"106438133\"\/>&#13;<br \/>\nPhotograph: Peckham Car BootPeckham Car Boot&#13;<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking to offload some old gear, bookings are already open for both the east and north London markets, with pitch prices starting at \u00a315.
