Shopping at Denio's can be fun, exciting, and save you money too! For nearly 60 years, people from all walks of life have been buying produce, new and used merchandise, antiques, specialty items and who knows what else! Many of our vendors have been with us for years and have raised their families while selling at Denio's. Our customers regularly comment on the variety and selection of goods that are presented for sale each weekend. Always the freshest, most abundant selection of produce available anywhere, our produce market continues to be second to none! New and used goods dot the entire market and provide "the thrill of discovery" in looking for that unique "bargain" or "just right" item that keeps people coming back.

Before You Arrive . . .

Denio's is spread over almost 70 acres so it's easy to get turned around or even separated.  We suggest groups plan ahead. For instance, does everyone know where the car is parked?  Do you have each other's cell phone numbers, just in case?...maybe walkie-talkies.  We take the safety and comfort of our guests and visitors very seriously, especially those little ones.  All of Denio's employees working outdoors wear bright yellow Denio's vests and carry radios.  Our security personnel are in security uniforms and are in radio contact with one another.  Please teach your younger ones to find any one of us if they can't find you.  As parents, please take note of how your children are dressed so you can provide us with their description should you get separated.

Additionally, please consider the needs of those with you when it comes to weather, walking and shopping...young and young-at-heart, alike.

Parking at Denio’s . . .

On Friday, parking is free!  On Saturday and Sunday there is a $3 parking fee. There are no return privileges. For those requiring handicap parking spaces, we have numerous handicap spaces available. Official, unexpired placards or license plates must be visible.  Our Parking Lots are monitored. Motorcycle parking spaces are available adjacent to Bus Stop 3.

Lost Parents . . .

Parents who are separated from their small children will want to contact any Denio employee or call our Rental Office at   (916) 782-2704.  Security or management personnel will respond to your location.  Children are usually fairly close by so it's better to stay put.  We encourage all parties to make plans to meet up at a set location should anyone in the party become separated.  Our rental office is centrally located in the yard, just look for the "two-story" metal building on the North side, along Vineyard Road.  It's a great location to "meet-up."

What to Wear . . .

Dress casually, comfortably, and according to the season. Denio's is open all year - rain or shine! Wear good, comfortable walking shoes.  In warm weather, wear a hat and sunglasses and don’t forget your sun block.  The temperature changes as the day goes on, we suggest you wear clothing in layers so that you can adjust accordingly. 

What not to Wear . . .

Outer clothing that is offensive in nature, consisting of but not limited to words or pictures of a profane or pornographic nature are not acceptable in our family-friendly atmosphere.  Additionally, clothing connected to "gang" activity is not permitted on our grounds.  Persons choosing to wear this type of clothing at Denio's will be asked to cover it completely, change into more appropriate attire, or leave the market.

What to Bring . . .

Be sure to bring something to carry your purchases in, like a shopping cart or small wagon.  For larger purchases, be prepared to move your purchase to your vehicle.  Some vendors have equipment to assist you, but many do not. Please keep in mind, Denio's does not provide this service.  Tip!  If you plan to purchase a large item from a vendor, bring your own hand truck or dolly just in case!

What Not to Bring . . .

For informational purposes, this list is not intended to be all-inclusive but rather a sampling of those items we deem inappropriate for our market.  We strive to maintain a safe, family-friendly atmosphere and those items listed here are not conducive to this environment; your own alcoholic beverages;  roller blades; skates; skate boards; scooters; roller skates; bicycles (bicycle racks are provided at the walk-in gates); weapons; illegal drugs or controlled substances; glass containers.  If you have a question, please call in advance.

Please add your camera or camcorders to the list above; photographing images or persons inside the market is prohibited.

Pet Policy . . .

We love all Pets!  However, our market is not the place for them.  We’d rather you leave them at home.  Of course, service dogs assisting you are welcome! Service dogs in training are welcome also.  All service dogs must be easily identified (i.e. vest, harness or tags).  Animals should never be left unattended in vehicles.

ATM’s . . .

We have three ATM’s located at convenient locations throughout the yard.  During the busiest times of the day, there could be a line.  Tip!  In order to save your shopping time, you may want to consider stopping by an ATM either before arriving on the grounds or shortly after doing so.

Lost and Found . . .

If you've lost an item while visiting our market, please stop by or call the Rental Office at (916) 782-2704, we’ll be happy to check our Lost and Found.  Additionally, any Denio security or management personnel can contact the Rental Office by radio to check for you as well.  Please let us know.

If you have found an item that someone else may have lost, please contact any Denio employee in a yellow vest or call our Rental Office at (916) 782-2704.  Security or management personnel will respond to your location.

Can You Carry this for Me? . . .

Although Denio's does not provide loading or moving services for those items you have purchased, we do provide loading zones.  There are two (time limited) loading zones for your convenience, one between Shuttle Stops 1 and 2 (near produce) and one between Shuttle Stops 5 and 6.  If you have any questions, please find someone in a yellow Denio's vest. 

One of our parking lots is located at the Livestock Auction site. Any person parked in that lot may request a vehicle transfer to the main lot for the purposes of picking up larger purchases.  Simply stop by the ticket booth as you exit the Livestock parking lot and request a transfer from the parking booth attendant.  The attendant will notify the main lot of your vehicle description, after which you can proceed to the main lot.  Upon reaching the ticket booths for the main lot, let them know you are a transfer.  Once the transfer is confirmed, you will be allowed to enter.  Parking lot transfers are designed for immediate use only.  Denio's has a No Return Privileges policy.

At the end of each selling day, customers may request the opportunity to enter the selling yard with their vehicle to pick up large purchases.  Please note, for safety reasons, the time the yard will be opened for this purpose is solely at the discretion of Denio's security and management.  Vehicles will not be escorted in prior to the yard being opened.

Where can I test this? . . .

Many vendors provide generators or other means of testing electrical appliances, tools or equipment you may be considering for purchase.  Denio's does not provide electrical outlets for testing purposes.

Perhaps, your question is not about an electrical appliance, but rather about testing out a bicycle, scooter or mini-bike. Denio's does not allow testing and/or demonstration of these or similar types of items in our facility, including our parking lot.

Shopping Tips . . .

Bargains! Bargains! Bargains!  Many of our vendors welcome “haggling” or negotiating a price.  Others may have a set selling price.  But, it never hurts to ask.  Denio’s does not set selling prices, refund and/or exchange policies, so if you are not sure of the vendors policy, make sure you ask before you purchase.

Counterfeit, Pirated or Bootlegged Product . . .

Denio's is highly offended by the sale or purchase of counterfeit merchandise.  We do our best to make sure all products sold by our vendors meet all applicable laws and government regulations.  Product that is counterfeit, pirated or bootlegged is not acceptable and is never condoned for sale at Denio's.  Vendors at Denio's may unknowingly bring in this product and are very cooperative when they are educated otherwise.  Vendors who knowingly bring this type of product into our market risk losing their selling privileges. Should you see this type of product, contact Denio's management or security personnel.
