Questions hosts ask

Do events in Boston, MA need a special permit for food trucks?
Public events often need a temporary event permit from the city, and trucks may need event approval from the health department. Check with your city early.
How many food trucks does my event need?
A common rule is one truck for every 100 to 150 guests during a meal. Give your headcount and we'll send the request to enough trucks.
How much does it cost to host a food truck in Boston, MA?
Sending a request is free. Many trucks come at no cost to the host when enough people are expected; for private events trucks may ask for a minimum. You agree the terms with the truck.
How far ahead should I ask?
Two to four weeks ahead works best. Trucks book weekends early, so ask sooner for Fridays and Saturdays.
Do trucks need power or water?
Most trucks bring their own generator and water. A flat spot near the entrance and access for a large vehicle are what matter most. Mention anything special in the notes.
Do I need a permit to host a food truck in Boston, MA?
Trucks carry their own licenses. Some cities ask private property owners or events for extra permission, so check with your city or HOA if you're unsure.
What happens after I send the request?
We review it within one business day and send it to food trucks nearby. Interested trucks contact you by email or phone.
