Planning Thai street food van hire in Heybridge Basin
The nearest station, North Fambridge, is about 6 miles away, so most guests arrive by car. With most guests driving, it helps to plan parking and leave a clear route for our van to reach the cooking area.
Heybridge Basin has plenty of larger family homes, with room for a bigger guest list at home. In bigger houses we can serve indoors in the kitchen or conservatory and cook outside, keeping cooking smells out of the house.
Three in four homes in Heybridge Basin (88%) are detached or semi-detached, so most hosts have a garden or driveway to work with. Our food van needs a level pitch about the size of two parking bays, which many driveways and side gardens here can offer.
