Food truck hire for your event in Staple
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case. It suits staff appreciation days and summer parties at home, serving vegan tacos, burrito bowls and tacos from the hatch.
In a small place like Staple, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Tell us about narrow lanes, gates and long drives. Firm ground matters, especially after rain. Your quote sets out what’s included: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.
Working with your venue
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.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can check the date.

Planning for every diet
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Try these:
- Count children separately
- Guests with serious allergies should contact us first

The process
Service is quick and friendly: guests are served at the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area. December events in Staple lose the light at about 3:50pm, so ask the venue about outdoor lighting where we’ll park. At midsummer, sunset is around 9:15pm.
- 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.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- After service, we close up and leave the spot clear.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Is food truck hire right for your event?
A private hire is not the same as a festival stall. At a festival we trade to the public; a private hire means your guests, your menu and your timings. Larger events can cost less per head, because the set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
