What happens on the day
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. Send us a photo of the space if you’re unsure. Summer events in Gants Hill have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter markets, dark by about 3:50pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Organisers send us the event details, dates and pitch information.
- You get our stall menu, what we need at the pitch and the paperwork you request.
- We arrive at the agreed time and set up on our pitch.
- We serve from the hatch through the trading times you set.
- We pack away and leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare

Gants Hill questions
Could you bring a taco truck to a school fair in Gants Hill?
Yes, if the school is happy and there is access for the truck or trailer. Tell us the date and pitch details.
What’s the nearest station to Gants Hill for guests?
Guests can use Ilford station, about 1.2 miles south of Gants Hill.
What about power on site?
That depends on the set-up, and we agree power and water with you before the day. Let us know whether there is a supply near where we’ll park.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Tell us your numbers when you ask for a quote.
What access do you need?
Access and level ground matter most: a firm spot for the truck or trailer, room for a queue and, for a taco bar, space for a serving table. If in doubt, send us a photo of the space and the way in.
Do you run a bar at festivals?
It depends on the event’s licence. Tell us whether the event has a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
Can you cater for crew and volunteers?
Yes, timed to your schedule. Tell us numbers and timings.
Do you have options for kids?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.
For planners, venues and organisers
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.
Organising a club, school or community event in Gants Hill? A truck or trailer serves a crowd quickly, with options for most diets. Tell us about the event and we’ll suggest a menu.
Space, access and the venue
We’ll be honest if a space won’t work, and help find another spot. The main points are:
- Firm, level ground or hardstanding
- Your arrangements for power, water and waste
- Your trader pack and site rules
In Gants Hill, as everywhere in Greater London, the ULEZ applies and kerb space is limited. Where will the truck or trailer stop? A drive, a courtyard or a suspended bay can all work.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
