Frequently asked questions
How much does a food trailer cost?
Fully equipped custom cooking trailers start at $39,000 for a 14 FT build. In-stock units on our Trailers for Sale page run from about $23,900 to $155,000, ready to roll.
Can I get a trailer without paying cash up front?
Most of our customers do. We arrange financing through lenders who fund food trailers every week. Rent-to-own is also available with no credit check, through B&C Capital, LLC, a third-party company we are not affiliated with.
How does rent-to-own work?
Rent-to-own runs through B&C Capital, LLC, a third-party company we are not affiliated with. Pick a package, bring a valid ID and two forms of address verification, and make the down payment. Fixed monthly payments count toward ownership. B&C funds up to $25,000, so any amount above that is due up front. Down payments start at $4,400. Ask B&C about their terms, including any charge for paying off early. See the packages.
What do you need down to start a custom build?
Custom builds start with a 50% down payment. Deposits are not refundable. If you finance, the lender usually asks you for around 20% down and funds the balance to us. Request a quote and we'll walk through your numbers before you commit to anything.
Are your trailers built to code?
Yes. Venthoods, fire suppression, sinks, and equipment are installed to pass health and fire inspections. Requirements vary by county, so tell us where you'll operate and we build to that.
Do you deliver outside Texas?
We deliver nationwide from our shop in Belton, Texas. Rates and timing depend on your location; ask when you request a quote.
How long does a custom build take?
It depends on the package and our current queue. If you need to be cooking sooner, the in-stock trailers are ready now. Call or text (254) 727-2577 for current lead times.
Do you build food trucks too?
Yes, on Morgan Olson step vans, with the same commercial kitchens as our trailers. See food trucks.
Can I see trailers in person?

What do I need to get started?
A menu idea and a rough budget. Send the build form and we'll call you back with real numbers, or call or text (254) 727-2577.
Still have a question?
