Technical Specification

The Trailer [Pix]

Cooking: Griddle, Water boiler, Microwave

Additional equipment available by arrangement: Toasters, double electric hob, water cooler, ‘Cona’ coffee machine. Self-service tea/coffee/squash station.

Cold storage: Two under counter freezers, one under counter fridge.

Hygiene: Wash hand basin, prep sink.

Space: We need room for the trailer (5m inc tow bar) the support van (4m) and possibly a caravan (5m) All vehicles must be adjacent to each other.

Power: We have a petrol generator which runs the basic electrical equipment. It is secured and fenced off when in use. We have a full risk assessment and robust refuelling method. All staff are trained in the Generator Safe Use Policy. The refuelling method for the generator is here

But we all know that generators are noisy and a bit smelly. It is generally better all round to plug into site power. Also, site power is essential for full service where toasters, deep fryer, microwave and other power hungry appliances need to be used concurrently and which need more power than we can squeeze out of our genny. The inlet for mains connection is a 2 x 16 amp single phase CEE forms.

Water: We have water containers which will need re-filling from time to time. If there is no potable supply on site we will need to know in advance. Where possible we prefer to be plumbed into the site supply. Out water inlet is a 20mm  poly pipe.

Waste water:  We collect our waste water and will need a local disposal facility (either mains sewer, a bulk tank or soak away).

Waste oil: We will take away all waste fats and oils.

Waste general: We will collect and bag all food and packaging waste. We usually use a site skip so we will need to know if there are no waste facilities on site.
