Casual Cards are available to maintain priority for casual stand allocation.
These cards can be obtained at Market Offices or at the Sydney Markets Limited Office. You will need to bring identification and complete an application form.
The casual card application fee is $56.10 (GST inclusive).
If you wish to obtain a casual card on a market day, please inquire at a Market Office between 10am-12noon, to avoid interruptions to the casual calls.
Two general goods casual calls are conducted at each market to allocate all available vacant stands.
Both calls start card No1 until all vacant stands are allocated. When a card number is called, the card holder then chooses a stand. (Please note, there will be no refund of casual fees).
If a card holder is present and there are no available stands, then they should record their attendance on the Allocation Sheet.
Once allocated, casual stands may not be exchanged without approval.
Haymarket – No vehicle entry for Casual Traders.
Sydney Markets – No vehicles permitted into the market after 11am on Friday, 6.00am on Saturday and 8am on Sunday.
Every month the casual cardholder attendance is reviewed and if a cardholder has not attended in that month, then their Priority Card Number is cancelled.
Casual Card conditions are fully set in the Standholder’s Guide (copies of which can be obtained from Market Offices). A summary of the conditions is as follows:
