A chip van near Blenheim
What happens on the day
The van turns up at the agreed time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts at the time you asked for. For an evening event in Blenheim, sunset is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June; after dark, we need a lit pitch.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Share the timings for the day
How to get a price
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A photo of the spot helps too. When you’re ready, send us your details through our quote form.
