Street trading and pedlars: Allerdale

Who can apply, how to apply, costs and fees.

Through the street trading scheme, we aim to regulate the location and number of street traders.

The scheme also aims to prevent the obstruction of the streets of Allerdale by street trading activities.

In doing so, it recognises the importance of licensed businesses to the local economy and the character of the area whilst trying to ensure that the activities do not cause nuisance or annoyance to the people in the area.

Refer to the street trading policy for more information and to view the list of prohibited streets for street trading.
