About our food truck hire in South Malling
We serve when you want us to: a lunchtime window, an evening service or a longer slot through a party. Tell us when guests should eat. Popular choices include loaded nachos, vegan tacos and burrito bowls, and it’s a good fit for staff appreciation days and anniversary celebrations.
For a place the size of South Malling, 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. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so set-up goes smoothly.

South Malling is one of 289 places in East Sussex where we can bring food truck hire. We cater right across the region, from South Malling to Brighton (about 7 miles away).
Being close to the A26 and A2029 makes South Malling an easy run for the truck.

Streets in the area include Lee Road, New Road and Mill Road, and an event on any of them can work if the truck or trailer can park nearby.

FAQs for South Malling
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Michael?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to Railway Land?
Only with permission from whoever runs the park, often the council. Ask them first, and we will help with the information they need from us.
What about power on site?
Tell us what the site has, such as a supply from the venue near where we’ll park, and we’ll confirm the arrangements with your quote.
How does private food truck hire work?
You book the truck or trailer for set hours at your event. We cook, serve and clear away.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
What’s on the menu?
We agree a sample menu with each client. Fillings could include chicken tinga, pork carnitas, al pastor-style pork and vegan options like black beans. See our menu for ideas.
What space does the truck need?
Level, firm ground or hardstanding, access wide and high enough to drive in, and the venue’s permission. Power and water are confirmed with each booking.
Do you take everything away?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will talk it through.
The process
We take care of everything you’ve booked, from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your event. A hired food truck at a summer event in South Malling can serve in daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer, and by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Send us your date, the address, a headcount and dietary needs.
- You get a hatch menu and a quote for the hire.
- We confirm the parking spot, access, power and water with you or the venue.
- Your guests order at the hatch and we serve hot food at the agreed times.
- After service, we close the hatch, pack down and drive away.
Preparing for the day
- Find out what power and water are available
- Give us a contact for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
