Food truck hire in Pittswood, from our truck or trailer
Guests walk up to the hatch, order and take their food away hot. It’s simple, quick and sociable. It works well for client events and product launches and family celebrations, with tacos from the hatch, burrito bowls and loaded nachos.
In a rural place like Pittswood, 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. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

The process
The truck or trailer needs a level, firm spot with access to drive in, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A picture of the space helps. Evening events in Pittswood stay light until about 9:20pm at midsummer. After that, festoon lights or lamps near the truck help guests order.
- First come the basics: date, location, numbers and diets.
- We check availability and send a menu and a quote for hiring the truck or trailer.
- Where the truck or trailer will stand, the route in, and power and water are all agreed in advance.
- On the day we drive in, set up and serve to order from the hatch.
- Once guests are fed, we clear our area and head off.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the venue allows outside caterers
- Measure any gates or arches on the way in
- Give us your final numbers and diets

Can I do a taco night myself?
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
Food truck hire or something else?
Hiring a food truck is different from finding one at a festival. At a festival we trade to the public; when you hire us, we serve only your guests, on your timings. Extras, such as more dishes, extra drinks or a longer service, are quoted on request, so you can choose what you need.
