So, you want to vend?

The Del Ray Vintage & Flea Market was started to provide an opportunity for anyone with vintage and flea market wares to sell and participate in a community event, you do not need to live in Del Ray or Alexandria to vend. We are requesting that anyone vending have garage sale/thrift store/ curated vintage collectibles or similar items for sale. If vendors do have new or crafted items they must be accompanied by vintage or flea items as well. We currently do not permit multi-level marketing franchises or products.  


  • Read through the info below
  • Sign up for the months you'd like to vend (it's free to sign-up!)
  • Arrive at the market on the morning(s) you've signed-up for and choose your space based on what's available, pay your vending fee when the organizers are collecting 
  • Have fun!!  

Vending Fees

  • $20 for approximately a 10x10 space - enough size for a pop-up canopy
  • 30 full-size spaces are available each month. In the rare event that we run out of 10x10 spaces, a limited number of smaller spaces will be made available for $15 - ONLY after all 10x10 spaces have been filled  COVID NOTE: We are booking *less than full capacity and not offering the $15 tables until Distancing Requirements are lifted*
  • Your vending fee is due the morning of the event to one of the organizers (Lauren Fisher or Amy Eggers) on-site, cash is preferable but we can also accept Venmo and PayPal in person
  • Can I pay in advance to reserve a spot? Unfortunately no - you may sign-up in advance to vend but the actual spots on-site are first come/first serve. Paying in advance may lead to refund requests which we cannot accommodate at this time
  • Collected vending fees are put towards operational costs and advertising  

Where does this all happen?

  • The original, smaller market lot is at 1900 Mt. Vernon Ave. in Del Ray, the parking lot of Del Ray Psych & Wellness. There are only 10 vending spaces available here, all approximately 10x10. 
  • We also have been granted access to the Salvation Army Corps parking lot just steps away which offers *20* additional 10x10 spaces. The technical address for this building is 1804 Mt. Vernon Ave. but the parking lot entrance is around the back, off Bellefonte Ave. COVID NOTE: We are booking *less than full capacity until Distancing Requirements are lifted*
  • Maps of both lots are here, outlining available vending spaces. 
  • How do I know which lot to vend in? No restrictions - since spaces in both lots are first come, first serve you can see where there looks to be a good spot for you and set-up shop! 

Rules, Regulations & Reminders

  • As a vendor, you are responsible for bringing everything of your own. We do not provide anything but the space to set-up your displays and wares. 
  • Pop-up canopy tents are encouraged, but need to be weighted down properly on all four legs with sand bags, cinderblocks or otherwise appropriate items. Amazon sells sand bags that easily velcro around the tent legs.
  • There are no electrical outlets or access available, please do not bring anything requiring power or generators.   
  • If vending in the Salvation Army parking lot, please be respectful of their property and do not attempt to enter the building for any reason. 
  • Other items to consider bringing: chairs, tables, drinks/snacks, display pieces, payment method signage, apron or cash box, mobile accessories for processing credit/debit cards, sunblock, bags/packaging material if offering to customers, mirrors for customers to admire themselves while trying on your products!  

What to do the morning of a market if you're vending ...

     

  • Set-up may begin as early as 6:30am but please be considerate of our neighbors 
  • You may pull your vehicle into the lots to unload but must park on the surrounding streets once unloaded and for the duration of the market. Street parking is easily found near the market. Please do not start unpacking your items before you move your car and park. 
  • The market technically starts at 9am although you may have some early birds! The market is scheduled to end at 1pm, but again - you may have some stragglers and we won't make you stop a sale in progress.
