About our food truck hire in Send
We cook inside our food truck or trailer, so there is no need for kitchen space at the venue. What we do need is level ground, a way in and the venue’s agreement. We serve burrito bowls, vegan tacos and burritos, which works well for engagements and anniversaries and leaving parties.
For a place the size of Send, food truck hire at your own home is often simplest: no venue hire, and guests order at the hatch. Let us know about the route to the house. Guests are served from our food truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Step by step
We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. Guests come up to order when service opens. Late-September events in Send see sunset at about 7:05pm, so evening service from the truck may run past dusk. In late May, daylight lasts until about 8:55pm.
- Check our availability for your date.
- You get a menu for the hatch and a quote.
- The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.
- We drive in, open the hatch and serve your guests.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.
Before we arrive

Who books food truck hire in Send?
You don’t need a kitchen, which opens up gardens, fields and car parks with the venue’s agreement.
Almost any gathering can work with a truck or trailer. In Send, you could book us for events such as:
- Private parties in fields and grounds
- Anniversary celebrations
- Christenings and family parties
- Birthday parties
Parks such as White Rose Lane typically need permission for vehicles and catering, so a garden or hired venue is often simpler.

Where the truck can go in Send
The route in matters as much as the spot itself. We look for:
- Enough width and height on the route in

Is food truck hire right for your event?
Several trucks mean several quotes and arrival times. One truck with tacos, burritos and nachos is one booking to manage. The cost per head can fall as numbers rise, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
What we offer in Send

Planning for every diet
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Measure gates and look for low branches on the way in
- Ask the venue about catering vehicles before you book
- Guests with serious allergies should contact us first
- Have shelter ready in case of rain
We arrive in the agreed window and park where we’ve arranged. It helps if someone can meet us on arrival.
Ask us about evening food later on, quoted with the main booking.
Prices and what affects them
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- How many guests we are serving
- What’s on the menu
- Travel, parking and access
- Staff for serving and the bar
Catering from a truck or trailer can be a practical alternative to a sit-down meal, because it needs no venue kitchen. Contact us for a quote to compare.

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Diets and allergies you know about
- What you’d like on the menu
- The date and time of the event
- How we drive in and where we can park
Send us the date, your venue or GU23 postcode and guest numbers, plus any dietary needs, and you’ll get menu ideas and a price. To get started, send a quick message through our quote form.

What else we do in Send
DIY taco night versus a caterer
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 has to serve all evening. See our margarita bar guide.

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.

Can you cater in a back garden?
Yes, as long as there is access and a level, firm spot. Send us a photo of the access and the space.

Send us the address and a description of the spot, and we’ll check it works. Our guide to space and power has more.
What access do you need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding for the truck or trailer, and a route in it can fit through, and the venue’s agreement. We confirm power and water with you for each booking.
