Food truck hire for your event in Hickmans Green
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 fresh salsas and guacamole, loaded nachos and burritos, which works well for birthday parties and wedding receptions.
In a rural place like Hickmans Green, access is the main thing to plan for a hired truck: the gate, the ground and the distance from the lane. Power and water may be limited, so we confirm the arrangements before the day. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Hickmans Green: parking, access and venues
Hickmans Green is about 3 miles south-east of Faversham, in Kent. Across the ME13 area, we can serve your guests. We serve in all 922 towns and villages in Kent, wherever the truck or trailer can get in.
A food truck in Mount Ephraim Gardens would need the park owner’s agreement, so check that first. If you are celebrating after a ceremony at a church like St Barnabas, our food truck or trailer can be waiting at the reception spot. With the Kent Downs National Landscape within about 8 miles, a rural setting for your private or work event is within reach. Firm ground and a clear way in matter most for the truck or trailer.

What we need at the venue
Many gardens, fields and venues can take a truck or trailer, but there are a few things to check:

- Distance from houses and windows
- The landowner’s go-ahead for the truck or trailer

Catering for every guest
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:

- Measure gates and look for low branches on the way in
- Email us any allergies
- Flag any coeliac guests
The hatch opens at the time you choose, and we cook each order as it comes.
Tell us what serveware you need and we will confirm the options in your quote.

For planners, venues and organisers
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
How it compares
For food that becomes part of the event, a private food truck is a strong option. What’s on the menu makes a difference to the total, so tell us what you have in mind. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
How it works
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, get the serving area ready, and serve without fuss. December events in Hickmans Green lose the light at about 3:50pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. In late June, it stays light until about 9:15pm.
