Mobile Food Units

Mobile food service operations or pushcarts are in many ways like a temporary food service operation. They have limited menus, and provide food served from single service articles only. The mobile units are expected to have all the facilities of a full service operation if they prepare food on site. The pushcarts and limited food service vehicles must have hand washing facilities. This includes a potable water supply with hot and cold water, soap, paper towels, and a retention tank 15% larger in capacity than the potable water supply to catch the waste water. They are also required to have a commissary or a fixed food service operation where they can report daily for restocking and cleaning.  For information on licensing a mobile food business, please see Home-Based Food Service Ownership.
