Gilbert, AZ Food Trucks & Mobile Vendors: Food Truck Permits (2026)

for each food vending vehicle, ice cream truck, or human powered food vending vehicle': a vendor running three trucks needs three licenses.

Vendors who operate from a vehicle must also carry vehicle liability insurance in at least the legally required minimum amount for the full term of the license (§ 14-137(c)).
