The Burroughs: your questions answered
Can the van park in Hendon Park?

It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll work around it.

Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.

Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
What if it’s raining or freezing?
The fryers are inside the van, so we carry on. Keep the van close to the door.
Do you need power or water?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we will confirm the rest.
Is there something for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.
