Question #3 Question #4

WHERE IS THE NEAREST AIRPORT TO YOUR FACTORY?

Answer

We’re around a 20 minute drive south from the Gold Coast airport. It’s an easy drive down to the factory, lots of our customers fly in for the day (or weekend) to visit in person. If you cant make it to the factory, no problems, we have video tours of all our trucks and trailers on our website.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE FOR DELIVERY?

Answer

We manufacture each truck and trailer to order, as every customer needs different equipment and layouts to suit their business, so it’s not just a case of delivery timeframes, but manufacture timeframes as well. Some trailers have signwriting, some require specially ordered appliances, so there are many variables in there that can affect your delivery timeframe, as well as your physical location.

All our trailers are tested and have an extensive pre delivery check completed prior to shipping to ensure your trailer is delivered in top working order.

For an accurate ETA, please drop us an email at office@foodtrailerking.com.au or call us on 1300 247 066, we can let you know what we have available and when we can book it onto the specialised truck for delivery.

Question #5 Question #6

CAN I PICK IT UP MYSELF?

Answer

Yes, many people collect their food trailers directly from our factory, 10 Mayfield Street, South Murwillumbah NSW.

You’re more than welcome to pick up your trailer yourself and get a run down of the equipment face to face. We are open Mon- Fri 8-4pm.

WHERE DO YOU DELIVER TO?

Answer

Delivery is simple and easy, no matter where you’re located in Australia. We only use select carriers that have specialised trucks set up to allow unloading without the need of a forklift.

Please send us an email at office@foodtrailerking.com. au or give us a call to discuss delivery options for your address.

Question #7 Question #8

WHAT IS THE DELIVERY COST? Answer

Delivery cost varies with location, though we have a cost-effective solution via the fleet of specialist trucks. Please shoot us an email at office@foodtrailerking.com.au give us a call and we are able to provide pricing for your food truck or trailer and delivery over the phone.

DO THE TRAILERS COME WITH COUNCIL APPROVAL? Answer

We guarantee council compliance on all our trailers and trucks. Whilst you will need to apply for council approval for your trailer in your own name, our team of experienced staff will be on hand to assist and walk you through the process every step of the way.

Question #9 Question #10

HOW DO I GET APPROVED BY COUNCIL? Answer

Each local council has its own trade regulations and approval process, so each process will be slightly different, as are the requirements for council. For example, some councils require 3 sinks, some 4. We guarantee council compliance on all our trailers and trucks, and our staff will help you through the process every step of the way.

WHERE AM I ALLOWED TO TRADE? Answer

Again, as each council is different, each will have their own set of regulations regarding where you are allowed to trade. This is to keep fair trade between mobile food businesses (food trucks and trailers) and fixed food businesses (cafes and restaurants).

For advice specific to your council, we suggest calling your local council and having them send through their regulations so you can plan where you want to trade. For example, on private land, events and markets, or roadside.

Question #11 Question #12

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF COUNCIL APPROVALS? Answer

In general, councils have 3 types of approval – private land, events and markets, and roadside. The regulations for each vary slightly from council to council (we recommend calling your council to get a copy of their specific regulations) but the approvals are self-explanatory. Private land permit – you are able to trade on private land with the landowner’s permission.

CAN I TRADE FROM MY HOME? Answer

If you are aiming to trade from your own property, you can talk to the council regarding a private land permit which allows you to trade from your land, or another owner’s property (with the owner’s permission). This can include residential and commercial properties, provided that it meets your local council’s regulations.

As each council in Australia has slightly different regulations, you are best to call them direct and have them send through the regulations specific to your circumstances so you can ensure you are compliant.

Question #13 Question #14

CAN I TRAVEL AROUND AUSTRALIA AND TRADE?

Answer

Most people travelling with their trailer will opt for one of three scenarios –

1.) Roadside permits so they’re able to pull up when it suits (within their council regulations)

2.) Events and markets permit to allow them to plan ahead and tour the country attending large events and sightseeing along the way

3.) Private land permit so they’re able to organise with the owner to trade outside a business such as a garden centre or service station for a period of time before moving onto their next holiday destination.

DO I NEED INSURANCE? Answer

Yes, you will require public liability insurance, as well as vehicle registration and insurance for your trailer. Our staff are able to provide you with all the documentation you require for insurance for your trailer.

Question #15 Question #16

WHO DO YOU USE FOR FINANCE? Answer

The finance is via a broker, the criteria for applicants is that you need to be a permanent resident or citizen, and either working, or have had income on an ABN that is minimum 2 years old. Unfortunately, Centrelink and Disability Pension do not qualify for finance.

Drop us an email at office@foodtrailerking.com.au and we can give you a call and put you in touch with the broker to start the process.

WHAT DO I NEED TO GET FINANCE ON A TRAILER? Answer

The criteria for applicants is that you need to be a permanent resident or citizen, and either working, or have had income on an ABN that is minimum 2 years old. Unfortunately, Centrelink and Disability Pension do not qualify for finance. It is a very simple process, drop us an email at office@foodtrailerking.com .au and we can give you a call and put you in touch with the broker to start the process.

Question #17 Question #18

HOW LONG DOES FINANCE TAKE?

Answer

Finance is simple, straightforward, takes a few minutes over the phone and you will generally get your approval very quickly once you submit your documents. We use specialised finance brokers to take care of the finance for our customers, they are experienced with dealing with our products, which makes the process quick and easy.

HOW MUCH DEPOSIT DO I HAVE TO PAY TO START PRODUCTION?

Answer

In most cases, no deposit is required if you are financing your food trailer package. If you are paying directly up front, we take a deposit to prepare your order, then when your trailer is ready to send, you pay the balance.

Question #19 Question #20

CAN I CUSTOMISE THE EQUIPMENT PACKAGE? Answer

Of course. Our trucks and trailers are custom built for this reason – so you get your perfect trailer and you’re not paying for equipment you don’t need. Our packages on our website include the most popular layouts, but can be adjusted to suit your business perfectly. We can either swap equipment you wont use for something you need, or simply remove it from the package and adjust the price accordingly.

Question #21 Question #22

CAN I CUSTOMISE THE LAYOUT?

Absolutely, we have a design team that will help with all aspects of design from your logo if you don’t yet have one, to the colour scheme and full design of the wrap. Our team at the factory will apply the wrap so when your trailer is delivered, it’s ready to get out and making money from day 1.

All our trucks and trailers are built to order, so each has it’s own personalised layout and equipment package. Once you pay your deposit to move forwards, our team will be in touch to work on the layout with you, to optimise production in your kitchen. Once you’re happy with the layout, you sign off and our team gets to work on the build. This way your trailer is set up exactly how you want it.

HOW LONG WILL MY ORDER TAKE TO PRODUCE?

The build time depends on quite a few variables, including the size of the trailer, equipment you order, how long it takes to design and sign off on your layout, whether you choose to have the trailer signwritten etc. As a very rough guide, we estimate around 16 weeks in most cases, and our team will keep you updated with photos and videos as your order progresses.
