How our food truck hire works in Scaynes Hill
Food truck hire suits weddings, milestone birthdays and staff events, and any gathering where guests want hot food without a sit-down meal. For leaving parties and wedding evening food, we can serve vegan tacos, loaded nachos and tacos from the hatch.
Near Scaynes Hill, a hired food truck in a field or garden suits private parties and work away days alike. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain. Everything is prepared fresh for your event and served from our truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We can send what the landowner or council needs from us.
Questions from Scaynes Hill
Which station should guests use for Scaynes Hill?
Guests can use Haywards Heath station, about 2.4 miles west of Scaynes Hill.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Augustine of Canterbury?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
How long do you serve for?
That depends on your event and menu. We agree arrival, service and pack-down times with you so everything fits your schedule.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent and Medway, Surrey, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, including Scaynes Hill.
Do you cook on site?
We cook to order in our food truck or trailer kitchen, or serve from a taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.
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.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. Under UK rules, caterers must give information on 14 allergens, and we give it for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). Anyone with a severe allergy should speak to us before the event.
Can you serve in the rain?
Rain does not typically stop service from the truck or trailer. It is worth planning a covered area for guests, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.

How we price food truck hire
We will give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Whether you need disposables
- How long we are needed on site
- The number of people
- Travel, parking and access
There is no one-size-fits-all price for food truck hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Your quote sets it all out.
What to tell us
To speed things up, tell us:
- What power and water the site has
- The date and rough timings
- Diets and allergies you know about
- The address or venue name
Every quote is put together for your event. Give us your date and numbers, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.
Can I do a taco night myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

How it works
