Hunt County Trade Center – Where One Man’s Trash is… Still Trash

If you’ve ever wondered what happens to all the yard sale leftovers, questionable antiques, and that bass boat seat your uncle swore he’d reupholster, look no further than the Hunt County Trade Center. This place is like a flea market and a scrapyard had a baby—and that baby grew up drinking warm Keystone Light on Lake Tawakoni.

The aisles are a maze of rusted tools, off-brand fishing lures, and enough NASCAR memorabilia to start your own Dale Jr. shrine. Every booth feels like someone just emptied their garage, slapped a price tag on it, and hoped for the best. Need a VHS copy of Smokey and the Bandit? A single, slightly used cowboy boot? A 1997 Bassmaster calendar? Buddy, you’re in the right place.

And the people-watching? Top-tier. You’ll see everything from lake rats in cutoff overalls arguing over a trolling motor to someone’s meemaw aggressively haggling over a ceramic rooster. The vendors are a mix of friendly old-timers, suspicious guys selling “lightly used” power tools, and folks who look like they just cleaned out a storage unit and want gas money.

Prices are… well, let’s just say some folks think their pile of rusty socket wrenches is a hidden treasure trove, while others are practically giving stuff away. If you dig long enough, you might actually find a good deal, or at least something weird enough to justify the trip.

Final rating? 3 out of 5 dip cans. If you love junk, haggling, and the faint smell of mothballs and BBQ smoke, it’s worth the trip. Just don’t expect to leave without some mystery dust on your hands and a “What the hell did I just...

Fun! There's something for everyone out there. I love going into the buildings and looking around. Some have brand new stuff and some are like an antique store. There's fishing stuff, tools, refrigerators , washers and dryers, cowboy boots and hats, clothes, bedding, furniture, plants...you name it. The weather is hot right now. I just put a wet rag around my neck. There's a lady with an ice cream cart, a lady sells popcorn on the back row, a great fruit stand with good prices and of course a concession/restaurant place. The bathrooms are not air-conditioned but have big fans and are always clean and stocked...

I found lots of cool stuff and half the price than most flea markets, FREE PARKING (UNLIKE $10 FOR CANTON FLEA MARKET) YES, there's lots of junk but if you are a true flea market enthusiast then you know that's part of going to flea markets. There was a small mexican restaurant, there's bathrooms. It took me about 5 hours to look at everything. It's not as crowded as Canton. Much smaller market but the quality and the prices make up for it. And this one is open every weekend. People where more eager to sell you something and prices where so cheap that I didn't even feel like hagling. Great...
