Food Trucks

Any vendor seeking a food truck fire inspection must schedule an appointment. Food truck fire inspections will be scheduled only on Tuesday mornings between 8:00am - 9:00am. 

To schedule a fire inspection for a food truck, please contact Irving Fire Administration at (972) 721-2651. There is currently no charge for these inspections. 

All other inspections for food trucks, such as health inspections and permits, are now managed by the Dallas County Environmental Health Division. For more information, please visit the dallascounty.org.
