Food truck hire in Badlesmere, served fresh
A hired food truck works for weddings, birthdays and staff days. It suits client events and product launches and winter staff parties, serving burrito bowls, tacos from the hatch and fresh salsas and guacamole.
In a small place like Badlesmere, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. We turn up ready to serve, and tidy our own area afterwards.

The process
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A picture of the space helps.

- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- We check power, water and timings with the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.

Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
