About

VENDORS
It all starts before the sun comes up. Vendors from all over the east coast make their way to the pre-dawn lineup. At 4:15am, the gates to the parking lot open and cars are queued up waiting for their turn to get loaded onto the field. Many of the loyal vendors of this community have been attending since the very start of this market in the 1970s.

However, every week there is a unique mix of old and new vendors bringing merchandise that captivates all the senses. By 6:50am, the field gates are closed and vendors are busy unloading their trucks and displaying their wares for the droves of buyers that come crashing through the gates at 7:00am seeking deals of every sort.

There are three categories of Buyers that comprise the Marketplace at the Trunk:

5:30 am: $20 – Exact change will have first priority to the field.

7:00 am: $10 – Available for purchase on-site.  We accept cash or credit.

8:00 am: $ 3 – General Admission. Available for purchase on-site.  We accept cash or credit.

Admission Gates Close at 2:00 pm – No Entry After 2:00 pm – Everyone must be off the Field by 3:30 pm, No Exceptions.

Loved the flea market. There are so many things to look at. Love it. Can't wait to go back. This brought me back to the 80s. Should have bought it. Lol

August 5, 2023 was a great day at Elephant's Trunk Flea Market. Parking was free and very easy to get in and out. $3.00 entrance fee at 8:00am. Lots of different style vendors throughout the whole place. Some very pricey and others had great deals. For sure this is worth a visit every now and then. They could use more food truck selections. Portable bathrooms are extremely messy and dirty. Otherwise a great visit.

Made popular by a TV show, you never know what you will find at the Trunk. I see people walking down the isles with the strangest things imaginable. Nice combination of antiques, crafts, and new items. Unlike the nearby Stormville Flea Market, all of the vendors are mixed in together. Nice for visual variety but bad on your feet because what you want can literally be in the first aisle or the last. The food, other than the Doughnuts, simply ain't that good. It won't kill you, but it is pretty pr

Amazing! One-of-a-kind experience. I've never been to a flea market before and it was an experience. Full of bargains and deals. Hidden treasures and not so treasure-like. These people wake up at the Crack of dawn to be here and I truly appreciate them for what they do. Staying there until late and in the heat of the sun. I applaud them. If only I could've bought more stuff and supported each kind soul there. 10/10 would return. I give it 4 stars because I wish the parking was more organized. Pe

$3 to get in after 8 am... A giant flea market. A lot for everyone. Pricey but if you know what you're looking for and are willing to walk away you can make a deal or two

Love this place. Fun to go and explore!! We always find something; fresh baked bread or pastry, a food truck, plant, hand made craft, or something from my childhood that just makes me smile.

Get here early! Take advantage of the early entrance. This place isn't too big and has great food trucks. A little bit for everyone. All sellers are also pretty friendly and CLEAN! It's a bit of a walk to bring good sneakers. Parking is easy and easy to get out of. No confusing "this way" "that way" signs.
