Ice cream van hire

Ice Cream Van Hire for Street Parties

A street party is the closest thing to what an ice cream van was built for. The van at the top of the road, the whole street out, and every child on the estate in one queue — it works because it is exactly the setting the van belongs in.

What the street party package covers

The street party package is 50 99's plus 50 cones with toppings, or slush. That covers a good-sized road without anybody being told there is none left.

If your estate is bigger than that, tell us when you book and we will price the whole thing properly.

The green package

For community events we run a no-waste option — nothing left behind on the road when we pull away. Residents’ associations and Tidy Towns groups ask for it most, and it takes one thing off the clean-up list.

It is not automatic, so get in touch directly and ask for it when you book.

Road closures are your end

If you are closing the road you will need to sort that with the council yourself. Once you know where we can park and for how long, tell us and we will work to it.

Questions

Street parties — the usual questions

Do we need a road closure to have you out?

Not necessarily — plenty of street parties happen on a green, a cul-de-sac or a car park with no closure needed. If you are closing a through road, that is a council matter and it is your side of things.

What is in the green package?

A no-waste setup so there is no rubbish left behind after the van leaves. Ring us for the detail, since what works depends on the size and layout of the event.
