Ice cream van hire in Hemel Hempstead
Battery-powered ice cream vans for Hemel Hempstead's parks, schools, business parks and family parties.
Hemel Hempstead was an old market town before it became one of the post-war new towns. The Old Town High Street still has its historic buildings and St Mary's Church, while the new town centre was built alongside the Water Gardens designed by Geoffrey Jellicoe. The town is known nationally for the Magic Roundabout, a ring of mini roundabouts, and locally for Maylands, a large business area on its eastern side close to junction 8 of the M1.
Many local events are family focused: children's parties in Adeyfield, Leverstock Green and Warners End, school sports days and fairs, and community days in Gadebridge Park. Maylands brings in staff days and summer parties for its offices and warehouses. Every one of our vans is fully electric while serving. The freezers and soft serve machine run from batteries, so there are no fumes near the queue while we serve, which matters at a school gate or beside a workplace entrance.

Wedding ice cream van hire in Hemel Hempstead
Weddings around Hemel Hempstead often use country hotels, barns and manor houses in the Chilterns and the Gade valley, towards Berkhamsted and Ashridge. Rural venues may have grass parking that turns soft in a wet spell, so tell us about the surface where the van will stand. Without an engine running, the van can sit close to the marquee or barn without disturbing the speeches.

Hemel Hempstead: questions
- Could we book the van for a party in Gadebridge Park?
- Gadebridge Park belongs to the council, and the splash park makes it very busy on hot days. Any event with a van or food trading needs their permission, including where the vehicle can go. If they agree, we will send our insurance, food hygiene and risk assessment paperwork so your booking can be confirmed.
- Do you cover business events at Maylands?
- Yes. Offices and warehouses at Maylands often have car parks that suit a van. We need a safe, level spot away from delivery lorries and forklift routes, and some sites will ask for our risk assessment in advance. Prepaid tokens work well for staff events that run across several shifts. See our corporate events page for ideas.
- Do you cover Berkhamsted and Kings Langley?
- Yes. We cover Hemel Hempstead and the surrounding area, including Berkhamsted, Kings Langley, Bovingdon and Tring. Some of the lanes in the Chilterns are single track with passing places, so let us know if your venue is down one. Send us your postcode and date, and we will check the route and send a tailored quote.
