Food truck hire in Beckley Furnace, served fresh

Food truck hire means our truck or trailer is booked for your guests only. It’s a private booking, not public trading, so we plan the menu and service times around you. We serve burrito bowls, burritos and fresh salsas and guacamole, and it’s a good fit for anniversary celebrations and client hospitality.

Near Beckley Furnace, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests order at the hatch, so plan a sheltered spot for the queue in case of rain. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.

Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Tell us how many children are coming
  • Have shelter ready in case of rain
  • Check gate widths and any height limits
  • Look into parking permissions if the truck can’t go off-road

We can serve through rain, but guests will want a covered area to eat.

The process

The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, with power and water arrangements agreed beforehand. A photo of the space helps. At midsummer, it stays light in Beckley Furnace until about 9:15pm, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:00pm. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, plan lighting where guests queue at the hatch.

  1. First come the basics: date, location, numbers and diets.
  2. You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
  3. Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
  4. On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
  5. Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.

Preparing for the day

  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time

Planning help

Should I do it myself?

Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.

A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, with allergen information for every dish.

Planning the serving area

Before the day, we will agree where we park and serve. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:

  • A clear area for a queue at the hatch
  • A place for guests to eat close to the hatch
  • Any parking or loading permission needed for street locations

Is food truck hire right for your event?

Burger and pizza vans are familiar. A Mexican food truck offers something less expected while staying easy to eat. Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Ask us for a quote.
