In the north you'll find Rastro's - there is a big one in Guarnateme - they'll pick up and deliver. This one is run by guys who are in drug rehab schemes and any money made from furniture is put back into the rehab.

South - Trotters is the main one. There is another one in Maspalomas somewhere.

Car boots every Sunday now in Arguineguin too - in the Big Top near Anfi

Are the car boots where the markets are held, otherwise if we get a taxi do we ask for the Big Top?

Thank you all for the great information. Can someone give me an indication where "Guarnateme" is located. Nothing very precise, just the general location or some well-known landmark in the area.

Guanateme is sort of near the Auditorium in las Palmas. The rastro is on the main road between Plazoleta farray and the Guanateme centro de salud.

For a fantastic pine warehouse open to the public ( one of the biggest and best i have ever been to anywhere ) "Maxio" C/Fresno S/N Aringa this place is wonderful and very good value for everthing pine , it is just around the corner from "el corte ingles opportunidades" near vecindario you can see opportunidades from the motorway . Maxio is just down the side road open normal spanish times . You would never know it is there unless someone told you about it. Really very worth wile going to for all things pine .
