Carboot product & public liability insurance?

Missy_Spud

Hi, I've been trading on ebay for about a year and half now, registered with HMRC back when I started trading,

I have been looking at going to local carboots which permit new goods to be sold as another source of income (hopefully) quite a few big ones around where i live which permit new goods, also thinking of having a market stall on flea market days too to try my hand at local markets. I have been looking at insurance for product & public liability insurance, I sell cosmetics.

I'm getting a bit confused as to if I would be covered on a carboot or not, market stall holders insurance is available but I can't seem to find anything about people selling new goods at carboots having insurance, anyone know if I would be covered by insurance as a market stall holder when i trade at carboots? or do you have to specify a place you want insurance for, i will most likely move about to different markets/carboots week by week unless I find one which is very profitable.

Any advice you can give? thank you.

I think you would specifically need to clarify with your own insurers. But market stalls and carboots (trade stalls) can't be too different for those purposes.
