White’s Farm Flea Market Live Animal Sale Policy
At White’s Farm Flea Market the welfare and safety of all live animals are of utmost importance. To ensure a humane and safe environment for both animals and customers, the following policy must be adhered to by all vendors dealing in the sale of live animals:
- Animal Welfare Requirements:
- All animals must be provided with sufficient water at all times.
- Adequate shade must be provided to protect animals from direct sunlight and overheating.
- Hygiene Protocol:
- Vendors must have hand sanitizer readily available for customers.
- Customers are required to sanitize their hands before and after handling any animals.
- Temperature Regulation:
- The sale of live animals will not be permitted if the temperature exceeds 85 degrees Fahrenheit. This is to ensure the health and well-being of the animals.
- Designated Sale Area:
- The sale of all live animals is restricted to the northwest portion of the flea market. This area has close access to a water hydrant to ensure animals can be properly hydrated.
- Specific Requirements for Juvenile Canines:
- All dogs must have proof of vaccination. Vendors must provide documentation verifying the vaccinations of each dog.
- No dogs may be kept directly on the ground. A barrier must be placed between the grass and the animals to prevent direct contact with the ground.
These guidelines are designed to maintain a high standard of animal care and hygiene within our market. Vendors found in violation of this policy may face penalties, including but not limited to, suspension of their vendor privileges.

Auctions
Private treaty sales (which deal with potential buyers one at a time) may result in selling the property without everyone having an opportunity to buy. The auction method brings all interested buyers together at the same place and same time to ensure that everyone has an equal opportunity to participate in the bidding. The auction method also ensures the seller that the property will have a definite date of sale, eliminating the question of, “How long before my property will sell, and how far do I have to reduce the price to sell my property?”
All of the real estate that we sell at auction is sold subject to the owner’s confirmation, leaving the final decision to the seller.
Sellers pay a minimal commission plus advertising expense and the cost of any necessary surveys if the property sells. If the property does not sell, sellers are responsible for the advertising expense and cost of sale plus a small predetermined fee.
* Please note: Federal antitrust laws prohibit us from publishing specific fees in order to avoid price-fixing. Please contact us directly if you have questions about our fees.
