Food truck hire in Yorkletts
The process
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so a crowd is looked after quickly. Afterwards we clear our area. December events in Yorkletts lose the light at about 3:50pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. In late June, it stays light until about 9:15pm.
- Tell us what the event is and who’s coming.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- The truck serves at the agreed times.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Ask the venue about power and water

Food truck hire in Yorkletts, from our truck or trailer
Everyone orders at the hatch and gets food cooked to order. It keeps things easy and relaxed for guests and hosts. It suits summer parties at home and retirement parties, with burrito bowls, tacos from the hatch and quesadillas.
In a small place like Yorkletts, a hired food truck might park in a garden, paddock or field. Lanes, gates and long drives are fine if we know about them. Soft ground after rain is worth mentioning too. We plan the timings around your day, so service starts when you want it.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Ask guests about dietary needs when they reply
- Confirm the venue accepts outside caterers and vehicles
- Confirm allergies with us in writing
- Plan a covered area for guests to eat
We arrive in the agreed window and park where we have arranged. It helps if someone can meet us on arrival.
Ask us about napkins, plates and cutlery and we’ll confirm the options in your quote.
Organising for someone else?
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.

Yorkletts questions
Do you hire out your food truck for parties in places like Yorkletts?
Yes, as long as we are available on the date and can get the truck or trailer in. Tell us about the lane, gates, ground and parking.
Could you come to a seaside event near Yorkletts?
Yes, as long as the site allows it and the ground is firm. Wind, sand and seafront permissions are the main things to plan on the coast.

You book the truck or trailer for set hours at your event. We cook to order, serve from the hatch and pack down afterwards.

How big an event can you cater?
That depends on the menu and the service time, but around 50 to 400 guests is the usual range. Tell us your numbers and we’ll advise.
