What to know about Thai street food van hire in Basildon

Basildon station is under a mile from the centre of Basildon. Guests can arrive by train, which keeps parking simple and lets everyone enjoy a drink.
Where our food van can park in Basildon
Our horse-box food van needs a level pitch about the size of two parking bays and a clear route in. It is fully self-contained with its own gas and equipment, so power and water on site are a bonus rather than a must.
Around Basildon, that could be a garden, a driveway, a farm field, a school field or an event site.
