Ice cream van hire in Wandsworth

Battery-powered ice cream van hire across Wandsworth, from Battersea to Tooting.

Wandsworth covers a big slice of south-west London along the Thames: Battersea, Wandsworth Town and Putney on the river, then Balham, Tooting, Earlsfield, Southfields and Roehampton to the south. It has some of London's largest commons and a busy calendar of park events, school fairs and garden parties. Regeneration around Nine Elms and Battersea Power Station has also brought new offices, shops and event spaces to the riverside, alongside the long Victorian terraces that make up much of the borough.

Events on Wandsworth's commons usually run through the council or the event organiser. For private parties, terraced streets in Tooting and Earlsfield mean parking is often the main challenge, so it helps to know where the van will stand before the day. Our vans have no engine to run while they serve, so they suit tight residential roads and the corporate spaces around Nine Elms equally well. Every van is ULEZ compliant and produces no exhaust fumes while serving.

Booking in WandsworthGood to know

01

Serve from the front

In terraced streets, the garden is often only reachable through the house. The van stays on the road, so plan to serve from the front and let guests come out to it.

02

Commons need permission

Wandsworth's commons are popular and managed. If you want an ice cream van at an event on a common, ask the council about permission well before the date, and expect them to want insurance and a risk assessment.

03

New developments have their own rules

Around Nine Elms and Battersea Power Station, vehicle access is controlled by the estate. For staff or residents' events, check with the estate team where the van can park and when it can arrive.

Wedding ice cream van hire in Wandsworth

Wandsworth weddings make the most of its open spaces and riverside. Battersea, Putney and Wandsworth have venues near the Thames and its parks, while Balham, Tooting and Earlsfield have pubs, restaurants and family homes with gardens. The commons at Wandsworth, Tooting and Clapham give the borough a green feel, and many couples hold relaxed summer receptions close to them, often in a pub garden or private house.

Parks usually need permission from the council or the park's managers before any vehicle can trade, so check early if you hope to have the van on the grass. On residential roads, a parking suspension often solves the access question. Because the van is silent and gives off no exhaust while serving, it suits a garden party where neighbours are close by. ULEZ is no problem for our vans.

Wandsworth: questions

Can you serve on Wandsworth Common or Tooting Common?
Yes, as part of an approved event. Trading on the commons needs permission, which the event organiser normally arranges with the council. We provide our £5M public liability insurance, 5 Star Food Hygiene rating and risk assessment to support the application. For a private picnic, a nearby road or venue is usually easier.
Can you serve at an office at Nine Elms or Battersea Power Station?
We can, working with your building or estate management on access. Office treats and summer parties are a good fit, and battery-powered serving means no fumes near the entrance. Ask us about prepaid tokens if you would like staff to collect an ice cream without paying. See our corporate events page.
Do you cover Putney and Roehampton?
Yes, we cover the whole borough, including Putney, Roehampton, Southfields, Earlsfield, Balham and Tooting. Give us your postcode and event details and we will come back with availability and a tailored quote based on location, timings and guest numbers. We are happy to talk it through by phone.
