Ice cream van hire in Merton
Battery-powered ice cream van hire across Merton, from Wimbledon to Mitcham.
Merton covers Wimbledon, Raynes Park and Colliers Wood in the west and Morden and Mitcham in the east. Most people know it for the tennis, but the borough is mainly residential, with good-sized gardens, large green spaces and a full calendar of school and community events. Wimbledon Common gives the borough a huge area of open land, Morden Hall Park follows the River Wandle, and Mitcham has its well-known cricket green. Garden parties, school fairs and summer weddings are the bread and butter here.
Every summer, Wimbledon gets very busy during the Championships, with extra traffic and parking controls around the club. If your event is in SW19 during the fortnight, tell us early so we can plan our route. Outside that, Merton is a short trip from our base in South Croydon. Our vans are fully electric while serving and run silently from the battery, which suits garden parties in Wimbledon Village, sports days in Morden and staff events at offices in Colliers Wood alike.

01
Plan around the Championships
During Wimbledon fortnight, roads around the club and Wimbledon Park are much busier than usual. Book early if your date falls then, and give us any access notes for your street.
02
National Trust and private land
Morden Hall Park is run by the National Trust, and commons and private venues set their own rules on vehicles and catering. Check what the landowner allows before you plan an event there.
03
Garden access in Wimbledon Village
Some roads around the Village are narrow, with parked cars on both sides. A driveway is ideal. If the van has to park on the road, tell us whether there are parking restrictions on your street.

Wedding ice cream van hire in Merton
Wimbledon gives Merton a lot of its wedding character: hotels, restaurants, churches and large houses around Wimbledon Village and the Common. Morden has parkland and historic buildings, while Mitcham, Colliers Wood and Raynes Park offer function rooms and community venues for larger family parties. Summer garden receptions in the big houses near the Common are popular, often with a gazebo or small marquee on the lawn and the van parked on the road outside.
In Wimbledon Village, parking is tight and residents watch it closely, so plan the van's spot with the venue or neighbours. Our vans are silent while serving, which makes them easy to have near a garden marquee through the speeches. Around the tennis fortnight, traffic and parking restrictions in Wimbledon change a great deal, so book early and check routes if your date falls then. ULEZ is not a concern.
Merton: questions
- Can you serve during Wimbledon fortnight?
- Yes, but plan ahead. Traffic and parking controls around the All England Club make arrival slower, so we need your exact address and access details well before the day. Battery-powered serving is useful here, because a party near the club will not add engine noise or fumes while we serve to an already busy street.
- Do you cover Mitcham and Morden?
- We do, along with the rest of the borough: Wimbledon, Raynes Park, Colliers Wood, Morden and Mitcham. Mitcham and Morden are close to our base, which can help with shorter-notice bookings when a van is free. Get in touch with your date and postcode.
- Can you serve at a school sports day in Merton?
- Yes. Sports days are one of our favourite bookings. We can serve from the edge of the field or the playground, and work to prepaid tokens so pupils do not need money. Schools usually ask for our insurance and risk assessment, which we send in advance. There is more on our sports days page.
