Food Trailers
A food trailer is a restaurant without a lease — and the spec matters as much as the menu. Hunt’s Custom Cargo builds and carries food and concession trailers from the compact 8.5×14 concession trailer through 8.5×24 fully-equipped kitchen builds, with generator boxes, 50-amp electrical, vent hoods, serving windows, and interior layouts configured for the food business you’re running — not a generic shell you have to retrofit. Brands include Hook & Line, Xtreme Cargo, Coast 2 Coast, and Quality Cargo.

Reviews About Our Food Trailers
About Food Trailers
Building Your Mobile Culinary Dream
A successful food business needs a solid foundation. That foundation is your reliable and efficient mobile kitchen. The right trailer acts as your command center, your storefront, and your key to success. At Hunts Custom Cargo, we engineer trailers to handle the intense demands of the food industry. This ensures you can serve customers safely and efficiently every single day.
The Anatomy of a High-Performance Food Trailer
Every Hunts trailer includes core features essential for success. We start with the fundamentals, building every trailer on a reinforced frame with heavy-duty axles. This strong base easily supports the weight of heavy kitchen equipment while ensuring structural integrity and road safety. Inside, our trailers feature easy-to-clean interior surfaces, like stainless steel or Fiber-Reinforced Plastic (FRP). These non-porous materials help you meet health codes and simplify daily cleanup. We also integrate a complete plumbing package, including a three-compartment sink, a handwash sink, and proper water tanks, to meet local codes from the start.
Powering Your Passion and Serving Your Customers
A modern mobile kitchen needs reliable power. Our experts install a robust electrical system in every trailer. We provide ample GFI-protected outlets for your equipment, along with heavy-duty wiring and a dedicated panel box. We also prep every trailer for a generator, giving you the flexibility to power your business anywhere. Finally, we focus on your customer connection: the concession window. Our designs feature smooth-operating windows with secure locks, protective awnings, and exterior serving shelves to create a professional and inviting storefront.

FAQ's About Our Food Trailers
What's included in a food trailer from Hunt's?
The stocked food trailer builds at Hunt’s arrive with the commercial kitchen prep done — generator box, 50-amp electrical, vent hood, serving window, and interior layout configured for the build type. The exact spec varies by model; the concession trailer lineup shows what’s in stock. For a fully custom layout — specific equipment, sink configuration, or fire suppression — order to spec.Can I get a food trailer on rent-to-own with no credit check?
Hunt’s offers rent-to-own on food trailers — it’s one of the most common paths buyers take to get into a food business without paying the full ticket upfront. Credit requirements vary by program; see the rent-to-own details or call Hunt’s directly to discuss your situation. Financing is also available as an alternative.
What size food trailer do I need to start a food business?
The 8.5×14 is the most common starting point — compact enough to manoeuvre and park in tight spots, and large enough for a focused menu with two cooking stations and a service window. If you’re running a full kitchen line or need room for a second person, step up to the 8.5×16 or 8.5×24. Browse the full food trailer range to compare sizes and specs.
Should I choose an in-stock model or order a custom food trailer?
If your menu and workflow fit a popular, proven layout, our in-stock or build-to-order models offer a faster and often more cost-effective path to getting started. If you have a highly specialized concept, unique equipment, or a specific branding vision that requires a different layout, a full custom build is the best way to bring your exact vision to life.
What kind of power source do I need for my trailer?
Most food trailers are powered by a portable generator, especially at events without access to shore power. We design our trailers with generator-ready prep packages, including transfer switches and exterior hookups. The size of the generator you’ll need depends on the total power draw of your kitchen equipment.
