Flea market selling is fun and can provide you with a little extra income. What could be better than taking someone's trash and turning it into another person's treasure and making a quick buck in the process? If you already love selling at flea markets or you are just about to get started, an enclosed utility trailer could make your selling a lot easier. Below, you'll find out how a trailer will make things easier and more organized for you.
Organized Storage
Having an enclosed utility trailer gives you a place to store all of the goods that you sell at the flea market. It will eliminate the need to load and unload on the weekends before and after the sale. Each week, you will simply hitch up and take off to the flea market of your choice. When you get home, park the trailer, disconnect the hitch and you're done.
Note: Instead of trying to pack new merchandise in the trailer, transport the new merchandise in your vehicle with you. Then, when you get to the location, you can unload and organize the new merchandise with the old without having to dig and move things around in the trailer.
Off-Site Storage
If your property isn't set up to park a utility trailer, you can lease a space to park the trailer between flea markets. For example, if your homeowners association prohibits utility trailers being parked on the property, finding a local storage facility can give you the parking space you need without having any issues with the HOA and you still have the storage space you need for your goods.
Easy Set Up
When you arrive at the flea market, you want to get set up as quickly as humanly possible. The utility trailer can make this process much quicker. Each time you pack the utility trailer up, load your goods inside in an organized manner. Think about how you have everything displayed – load the last items you display first and the first things you display last.
If you sell a lot of clothing, you can install a clothing bar inside your utility trailer. The clothes can be covered with a sheet while still hung. When it's time to set up, you simply uncover the clothes and you can allow your customers to shop through the rack right there in your trailer. If this is prohibited at your local flea market, invest in a clothes rack on wheels so it can be rolled in and out of the trailer with ease.
Investing in an enclosed utility trailer, like those from Colorado Trailers Inc., can save you a lot of time, make the selling process easier and make it possible for you to transport a lot of inventory for each show.
