Food truck hire for Burntcommon events
Planning the serving area
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- A place for guests to eat close to the hatch
- Enough width and height on the route in
- Distance from houses and windows
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
Food truck hire in Burntcommon, served fresh
We bring the truck or trailer to private and work events in and around Burntcommon. For client hospitality and end-of-year parties, we can serve tacos from the hatch, quesadillas and burrito bowls and more.
In a rural place like Burntcommon, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. We confirm power and water arrangements with you. Your quote sets out what’s included: menu, timings and any add-ons.
How it compares
A hog roast suits meat eaters well, but tacos and bowls make vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free guests easier to feed. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we will set out what’s included.

Working with your venue
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can check the date.
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We’ll provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
Your questions about food truck hire in Burntcommon
What’s the nearest station to Burntcommon for guests?
Guests can use Clandon station, about 1.5 miles south of Burntcommon.
Can you bring a truck or trailer to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
We do, where the venue allows a catering vehicle. Lanes can be narrow and ground soft, so tell us how we’d get in.
How does food truck hire work?
We bring our truck or trailer to your venue, park in the agreed spot and serve your guests from the hatch. It is a private booking for your guests only.
Do you do a taco bar?
Yes, a taco bar is one of our options. Let us know your numbers and space and we’ll recommend how to serve.
How much does food truck hire cost?
We do not publish set prices, because each hire is different. Tell us your plans and we will quote for your event. See the Mexican catering cost guide for background.
How is private hire different from festival trading?
Private hire means we serve only your guests, with a menu and timings you agree with us. At festivals and markets we trade to the public; see our street food catering page.
Do you offer a bar with the truck?
We bring bar staff with the drinks bar. Alcohol needs the right licence, which we’ll check with you.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We keep options separate, but we cannot promise anything is completely allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
What’s on the menu
Tacos from the hatch
A taco is ideal food from a truck.
Salsas and guacamole
Guests can add salsa and guacamole to taste.
How the day works
A typical event goes like this: we arrive and set up, we open the hatch when you are ready, and your guests are served fresh for the agreed time. By late September, it is dark in Burntcommon at around 7:05pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. In late May, daylight lasts until about 8:55pm.
