Mobile Food Truck Information

To obtain a food permit for serving on a mobile Food Truck in Glenn Heights, you must complete a fire inspection. Here’s what you need to know:

For Vendors with a Dallas County Permit: Even if you already have a Dallas County food permit, you must still complete a fire inspection to serve in Glenn Heights.
For Vendors Without a Dallas County Permit: If you do not yet have a Dallas County food permit, you’ll need to complete a fire inspection to secure both your Glenn Heights food permit and the Dallas County permit.

Apply for a Fire Inspection: Start by filling out our basic Vendor Application Form. If you already have you Dallas county license, you can upload it in this application form, however - we will need a hard copy upon fire inspection as well. After submission, you will receive an email with available timeslots for scheduling your fire inspection.
Complete the Fire Inspection: Schedule and complete the fire inspection as directed. Make sure you adhere to all the safety requirements outlined in the Fire Marshal Guidelines.
Submit Fire Inspection Results: Please submit your fire inspection results to Dallas County if you do not already have a food permit from them. If you already have a permit and pass the inspection, you are eligible to participate in our city events for the full year.
City Permit: In addition to the food permit provided by Dallas County, vendors are required to obtain a $100 permit from the City of Glenn Heights to participate in this event. This permit is separate from the health permit issued by Dallas County. The City permit ensures compliance with local event regulations but does not cover health inspection or food handling requirements.
