Maintenance Considerations For Food Trucks

When it comes to food trucks, they are often and enjoyed and considered as a meal option for a wide and vast majority of people. However sometimes maintaining a food truck can be a difficult task in and of itself. This article gives you the insight and a more in depth look into some options when it comes to maintenance and upkeep of food trucks.

Key Takeaways:

  • The fact is that food trucks not only involve much of the same equipment and maintenance as a brick-and-mortar restaurant such as a ventilation system, they also have additional special considerations like power and water.
  • If a food truck has a grill or flat-top of some type, it will have a hood vent that will require new hood filters on a regular schedule. There will also be grease to contain and haul of, as well as cookware to clean in a washing station.
  • Food truck operators should have a plan for managing their waste in a way that health inspectors and city officials will like.

“Sanitation is critical. Health inspectors are very aware of the higher risks in food trucks due to limited water supplies, frequent opening of windows, and potential power failures.”
