Protect Your Mobile Business the Right Way
Running a food truck in Orange County is exciting — but it also comes with real risks.
From kitchen fires 🔥 to accidents on the road 🚗, one incident can shut down your business if you’re not properly insured.
👉 That’s where the right food truck insurance comes in.
🍔 What is Food Truck Insurance?
Food truck insurance is a custom business insurance package designed specifically for mobile food vendors.
It typically includes:
- Commercial Auto Insurance (for your truck)
- General Liability Insurance (for customer injuries & property damage)
- Property Coverage (for equipment like grills, fryers, refrigerators)
- Workers’ Compensation (if you have employees)
👉 It’s NOT just auto insurance — it’s full business protection.
⚠️ Why Food Trucks Need Special Coverage
A food truck is BOTH:
- A vehicle
- AND a restaurant
That means double the risk:
- Cooking equipment fires 🔥
- Customer slip & fall injuries
- Equipment breakdown
- Accidents while driving
👉 A standard auto or business policy alone is NOT enough.
💰 How Much Does Food Truck Insurance Cost?
In Orange County, CA, most food truck owners pay:
- $1,500 – $4,000/year (depending on coverage)
Your price depends on:
- Type of food you cook (higher risk = higher premium)
- Value of your equipment
- Driving record
- Number of employees
👉 We shop multiple carriers to get you the best rate.
