Teaneck restricts mobile food and merchandise vending to designated zones, prohibiting operations near schools, in residential streets without permission, and within specified distances of brick-and-mortar restaurants.
Teaneck's vendor ordinance establishes zones where mobile vending is permitted, typically commercial districts along Cedar Lane, Teaneck Road, and Route 4 corridors with proper licensing. Vendors must not block sidewalks, fire lanes, or driveways and must observe minimum distances from school entrances during school hours and from competing fixed restaurants. Special events on public property require Township Council approval. Ice cream and similar vendors in residential streets follow separate rules including no stopping unless flagged by customer.
Vending in prohibited zones results in license suspension, fines up to $1,250 per offense, and possible vehicle removal at owner's expense for repeat violations.
