Tips on Buying a Used Food Truck

1. 🛠️ Get a Professional Inspection

Just because it looks good doesn't mean it is. Many mechanics will agree to inspect a truck you're interested in. It's worth the peace of mind.

2. 🔌 Test Everything You Can

Know before you buy. Test every door, switch, and system. No keys? Odd startup tricks? Needs a battery disconnect when idle? These aren't deal breakers—but you want to know before you sign. If something doesn't turn on, assume it doesn't work. Bring a generator if needed to test electrical equipment.

3. 🚛 Take It for a Test Drive

Make sure you're comfortable driving the unit. Get it up to at least 55 mph to identify potential mechanical issues you won't notice at low speeds.

4. ❓ Ask Smart Questions

Is it the original engine/transmission?
When was the last preventative maintenance done?
How heavy is it (important for towing or braking)?
Are there warranties? (Crate motors often have 3-year warranties!)

5. 🎨 Don't Skip the Wrap

Even if it feels unnecessary, wrapping your truck or trailer is crucial for branding and visibility. Think of it like a restaurant sign—no sign = no sales. Skipping the wrap? Your truck might end up right back in the "used for sale" list.

What should I look for when buying a used food truck? Key things to inspect: engine and transmission condition, all cooking equipment functionality, propane and electrical systems, hood and fire suppression system, water tank plumbing, generator hours, and MFDV license status. Always get a professional mechanic inspection before purchasing.

Can I get financing for a used food truck in Florida? Yes, sometimes, some buyers use SBA loans, HELOC, equipment financing, or personal loans to purchase food trucks. But, realize traditional financing in this space outside of getting an auto loan is very difficult. Often a loan officer or someone in a sales position wants nothing more than to get you funding, however, they don't make that decision, so proceed with caution. We recommend speaking with your bank or a small business lender. Our team can discuss what documentation buyers and sellers typically need.

How long does it take to get a food truck licensed in Florida? The main license you need is an MFDV (Mobile Food Dispensing Vehicle) license from the Florida Department of Business & Professional Regulation. Processing typically takes 4–6 weeks depending on your county and inspection schedule. Some trucks we sell come with a transferable license, which can save significant time.

Do you list food trucks on behalf of sellers? Yes, if you have a food truck or trailer to sell, we can help you market it to our audience of active buyers throughout the country. We do have a minimum listing amount of $25,000.00. Contact us here to discuss listing your vehicle.
