Hire a pizza food truck in the province of Limburg
At a glance
A showpiece on the square
At a fair, a market or a club party, the truck and its blazing wood-fired oven draw the eye, including visitors who hadn’t yet realised they were hungry.
No connections needed
Water, refrigeration, work surfaces and wood are on board. On a field behind the clubhouse or an old mining site, you don’t have to arrange anything extra.
Speed for the crowds
Pizza by the slice moves quickly from hand to hand. When the crowd tops 150, a second baking station is wheeled in so the queue stays short.
Where the truck stands in Limburg
The province has a strong club life: football and cycling clubs, brass bands, youth movements and neighbourhood committees that each organise their own party every year. On such a day the food truck likes to stand at the edge of the grounds, with the oven facing the crowd. People see the fire, smell the wood and join the queue on their own, with no sign needed.
The truck works well for companies too. At a staff day around a company site or during an open day, it creates an informal meeting point where colleagues stay and chat. Former mining sites, which often serve as event locations today, also have wide paved squares where a truck can manoeuvre easily and stand out at once.
On private land, such as a farm, a company car park or a club ground, no permit is needed. A village square or a closed-off street counts as public space, and there the municipality requires its permit for using that space; the organiser files the application. To support it, we hand over the technical sheet listing the truck’s dimensions and weight.
Sand, loam and hard surface
Limburg has two very different soils. In the Kempen the ground is sandy; it drains well, but a heavy truck can sink into loose sand. In Haspengouw there is loam, which turns slick and soft after a shower. So we ask to see photos of the parking spot in advance and, when in doubt, choose a paved area or the ground mats the venue itself provides.
Beyond that we need little: a level spot and a clear lane 2.5 metres wide for getting the truck into place. Watch out for low-hanging branches along castle avenues or in orchards. We arrive 90 minutes before the first pizza is due, which means the oven is hot by the time the gates of your event open.
From the first customer to a tidy field
During service we bake six to ten kinds of pizza, always with vegetarian options. If you eat vegan or gluten-free, mention it in your request and we will prepare those pizzas in a separate work area. The allergen list follows beforehand. The sourdough takes its time, rising for 48 to 72 hours, which keeps it airy and kind to the stomach, even for anyone coming back for seconds.
Once the second hour is nearly over, we put out the fire. We clear the work area, take the waste with us and leave the square or the meadow as we found it. For a club committee or neighbourhood group, that saves a lot of work at a moment when the volunteers have already been busy long enough.
Mathieu en Chloe, een supersympathiek duo, hebben van ons tuinfeest een enorm succes gemaakt. Hun pizza’s zijn overheerlijk (zuurdesem + authentieke Italiaanse ingredienten!) en de tiramisu was een perfecte afsluiter. Al onze gasten waren…
