Product overview

The 3.4m catering trailer is the event-catering version of our 3.4m platform. Where a street-trading trailer optimises for one narrow service point, this unit opens up the whole front of the trailer: a full-width lift-up hatch creates a long, continuous serving line that two or three people can work behind, so a function of 150 guests can be plated or a buffet can be laid out without queues building.

The interior is finished in stainless steel - walls, ceiling and work surfaces - which is the specification professional caterers and venue kitchens ask for. Stainless is non-porous, takes heavy cleaning, does not absorb food odours and reflects light, so a trailer this size stays bright and workable even at night under a single strip light. There are no timber or laminate surfaces in the food zone to swell or peel after a season of hot, wet service.

The layout gives you a long stainless work run behind the hatch, a separate prep run on the opposite wall, a two-bowl sink with drainers, and clearance for upright or under-counter refrigeration. Cooking equipment usually sits on the work run beneath the extraction point; we pre-fit the extractor bracket and the roof vent so the installation is a bolt-on job rather than a fabrication project.

A side entry door with an internal step keeps staff traffic out of the serving line, and the drawbar carries a lockable equipment box for gas bottles, cleaning equipment and the items you do not want inside the food area. Externally, the trailer is finished in black or green as standard or in your own colours.

This is the unit we recommend for wedding and corporate caterers, film and production catering, food festivals, sports events and any operation that feeds a large group in one sitting rather than serving passing trade.
