Beltinge: your questions answered
Is Beltinge close to London?
Roughly 55 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Which station is closest to Beltinge?
Herne Bay station, about 1.9 miles west of the centre.

How much is fish and chip van hire?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers and we’ll reply with a price.
Can you come to our office Christmas party?
We do. Send us your date and site details as early as you can.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is generally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Where do you take the van?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Beltinge.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.
What affects the price in Beltinge
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- Distance and any road charges
- Parking and the way in
- The date and time of year
- Whether a minimum applies
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
