Thanks for making this video; I have ambitions to start my own food trailer, and your videos are making me more confident about it.
Hope all continues to go well for you!
Amazing my guy.. I’m so glad I came up on your videos. Priceless info
This is awesome. I just found you. I sent an email because I haven't finished my coffee yet, and didn't realize you had added a google sheets link. Can't wait to watch your other videos.
I appreciate you for doing this my wife and I are going to start ours
Love it!!!!!!!! 😁😁
Thank you for doing a amazing job on walking us viewers through a step by step instructional video. I think I can do this so I look forward to one day showing you that I did it.
You got this!!!!
Could you also make a video on permits,temporary permits, setting up your llc, do you get taxes as an s-corp, type and amount of insurance for you and employees, how you pay yourself, and maybe how much you started making your first few months vs now , and anything else business wise that you wish you knew when you started?
Yes I can put something together
hello! love the channel…did you make a video about this subject yet? couldn’t find it on your channel thanks Frank!
Yessir! I'm currently working construction in a small town in the North East. About to spend the winter making one of these bad boys. Only thing I need now is to find a trailer to purchase. I will most likely do a 6X12 with atleast a 6'3" interior height.
Hello my brother Frank.
Thank you very much for all your great videos and very generous intentions to help other people.
I do have a pizza trailer that I used before but it wasn't as professional and beautiful as yours.
I'm going to update it according to all you awesome guidance.
Thanks again!!!
Appreciate that feedback!! That update you do I'm sure will make your trailer look very nice. 👍👍
thank you so much Frank baltierrez for you time to do your videos and teach us I am just start to build my own food trailer and I watch your videos and it helped me a lot thank you so much again and God bless you
Thank you for this. Much love from Philly
Hey big guy just stumbled on to your channel, good lawd 🙌 you got the plan!! We started a food Tent to make ends meet and ended going fulltime.. we are this 🤏 close having enough capital to build. Thanks for the info!
Looking forward to that spreadsheet! Thank you!
Just binged a few of your videos and the price break down makes this seem very straightforward for me to decide on building a food truck for my parents. I'm a metal stud framer and drywall hanger by trade so something like this definitely seems doable for me.
There we go!!!! It's not hard to do just tedious at times
@@fbaltierrez yeah it definitely seems that way. It genuinely seems pretty straight forward to me.
dude you are an angel! thanks for the spreadsheet!!
Hey Frank good morning I loved your videos thank you for sharing that information for us.
Oh man ran across this channel& my dream is to have a food truck. I know buying 1 premade is not an option. You gave me hope thank you for being kind & sharing.
Absolutely. You got this
Great video thanks a lot starting my food truck soon.
awesome videos going to start my build next month
Yes bro... thanks...I've been plan on getting one... maybe building it would be best...because i love hands on projects
Love it!!!!! You got this 👍
Super informative ☺️ thanks 🙏🏾
Great Information Bro, GRACIAS!!
My pleasure!
Really appreciate the videos and the time you put into them. I would love to see one about pricing the product and maybe profitability of the investment.
Once I sell it I'll know the profit on it 😁😁
I would LOVE for you to make a video about the order you build the truck in. Just as an overview please :)
I advise you to check with your local guidelines for your build. This can be a big cost if your area requires ALOT. Small rural areas have little to no restrictions on food trucks when big city's could require a brick and mortar/commissary building before you can have a food truck or trailer. This can big a big cost factor, monthly.........what kind of food you are serving plays a roll too.
One thing no one told me before I got into this was getting my name out there is harder than building a mobile restaurant. Build your name first. Start small.
I'm doing it bro you're video with so much out thanks a lot
There we go!!!! You got this.
Hey boss , thank you for being so transparent about everything ! Merry Christmas to you and your family :) by the way - do you prefer Home Depot or Lowe’s for getting your materials and parts ?
Happy Holidays to you as well. Home Depot for sure
I’m in San Antonio, Texas. Looking forward to my new adventure
Love San Antonio, let me know your truck name and hopefully soon I go down there. 👍👍
i love this guy
I’m trying to get myself a food truck. I don’t have much money to purchase it . I jus need a push in the right direction. I need this so bad so I can get my family back together.
Start with a trailer. I like them better
In going to buy a truck tomorrow thanks for you advices
Absolutely my pleasure!
Thanks man! What’s the hardest part of the build ? I would think electricity and gas lines. I’m no electrician but can build.
I respect the way you move an set the foundation blue print . I just turned 30 an the last 10 years I just been running the streets acting a fool waisting time . I finally know what I’m doing with my self in life I set my goals an a food truck is the beginning. Shit I’m Mexican you know we do it all my grandpa had his own construction company he is 74 years old an can Guide me..
Thx buddy
Hola, donde compraste el stainles still? Y gracias por la información
Hi I’m in the state of Washington and one of the things that we are being required is that a commissary location for food trucks is there a way that we can bypass this if we’re only wanting to sell simple burritos and tacos
Thank you so much for covering this. Would it be possible for you to send me your spread sheet. I am torn between a trailer and a step truck and your videos are really helping me with that decision.
Hola Frank, estoy mirando todos tus videos y están excelentes, muchas gracias por ponerlos, tengo un negocio de lemonade y kettle corn y me gustaría hacer un trailer para Lemonade, si me podrías asesorar ? Te lo agradezco mucho, dime si te puedo mandar un email para darte mi idea y haber que piensas. Gracias Frank, cuídate mucho.
What brand of trailer do you recommend getting?
I also was wondering where is the best place to shop for the griddle range fryer etc
Good morning. This last order I did I bought from Katom, shipping is a bit slow. Last time I bought from Webstaurant but this time they were $280 more
This is wonderful information! My son is 12 years old, and he started a lemonade business when he was 8 years old. His business has grown tremendously, and we could be more excited to take our next step...To become mobile! It would make life so much easier. We are going through a loan prep class to make this next step happen and I was using your spreadsheet to as a guide to list our expenses, however, It saying that I need access and to request it. Not sure what happened but I haven't been able to open it back up. Are there any options to get it another way?
Yes. I made it a purchase option now just $10 it's more detailed and with links attached. Makes it much easier to navigate save you a lot of time. Rollingburritosfoodtruck@gmail.com for more info
Where do you buy the wall panels??
Thanks, for your video, can you please help me with this question, I’m building my own small food trailer and I don’t want to add metal or FRP walls, do you think a good paint will be accepted since it is not porous ?
Also don’t want to add more weight, I ‘m using a minivan to tow.
Thanks
What kind of walls are on there now? Frp is nice and light in weight
@@fbaltierrez it is just a brand new trailer, I guest Plywood?
Where did you get your equipment...fryers, grills....?
Hi Frank, could you please share your material list purchased to build your food truck?
I will appreciate it.
Where can I find the ceiling and walls at
330, that's Ohio bro! I can actually remember like 20 or so years ago I seen a phone book at a phone booth and the cover was advertising the change of our local area code. It proclaimed "Say hello to 440!" As it used to be 330.
I good evening I like your videos they is anyway I can a copy of your spreadsheet
Hi Frank
How long total did your build take?
Thank you
Vince
What is the best way to get ahold of all the requirements and codes you would have to follow in the county of operation?
Good morning. Best suggestion would be go on your county health department website or give them a ring
Hola.Me gustan muchos tus videos gracias. Te agradeceria mucho tu opinion en esto Tengo un motorhome holiday rambler 1988 en my buenas condiciones crees que seria Buena idea comvertirlo en mi food truck? crees que podria usa r lo que ya tiene Como generator 4500w y tanques de agua y o tendria que cambiar todo? Crees que seria Buena idea o no? Dame un poco de guianza en esto te lo agradeceria mucho.
Mandame una foto @rollingburritosfoodtruck@gmail.com
Even if every single material item and tool you buy is brand new, it adds up to about 25k.
Used, like your deals off Facebook marketplace or Craigslist, no reason to penny up and get it pre-made.
I might slowly invest in one for my wife for a job/hobby/investment
Also,what setup do you use to take payments?
I have the Clover machine its ok nothing to brag about, I would look into something handheld like like the clocer but with an extra screen where customers can add tips without you handing the machine over
Hola bro! Me gustaría saber el tamaño del remolque de este video 🙏
Excelentes videos, felicidades! 🤙🏼
Es traila 7x16 y de 6 pies 5 pulgadas de alto
Could you do a close up of material, time, and cost?
Good morning John, in the description I added the link for easy access:)
Can I go out and buy restaurant equipment and install it
Into my truck?
Frank i have a ? What system do you recommend for processing payments? Thank you!
I use clover flex the small handheld machine, not my favorite. If I had to restart I would use square maybe where the customer can have a little screen on the opposite side so they can tip and such
@@fbaltierrez Thank you Frank! You videos are incredibly helpful and i appreciate the response.
Dude. As we old guys say in the South. You alright man.
Yes close up of the list or make it available on google docs whatever.
Awesome suggestion didn't even think of that. Just made that happen, added the link to description. Thank you!!!!!!
@@fbaltierrez Thank you!
Can you put a stove In the food trailer? I didn’t see or hear that in the video
You can
@@fbaltierrez so does your video have everything besides the appliances basically? Sorry for all the questions as I am new to this haha
I wish you live here in Austin to help me with my food trailer trying to put it together it was a Concession trailer trying to convert it to a food trailer
I used to live in Austin. Right by Golds Gym on South MoPac
I would like the list of everything
Oye muy buen video estaría bien si lo isieras también en español
If you still respond to comments... curious if you run your food truck primarily in the morning and what is the strategy behind morning sales?
Good morning. I just my truck on weekends now for private invites and breweries. 👍
@@fbaltierrez private invites like neighborhoods? Are they typically in the morning. PS. I stalked you on FB send a friend request
Excuse me I got a got a question can you be able to tell me will be my first step after I have my food truck fully equipment according to license insurance Health Department I kind of get a little confused why do need to do first thank you for your time God bless
depending on what you want to do, find where you want to work and a parking space. I don't have a specific spot I park and focus mostly on caterings
Yes copy of spreadsheet
If I want to buy one of trailer howmuch it cost
Depends on a lot of small things. The cooking equipment needed what kind of fridge needed. But just bare not tables equipment installed about mid 20s
How much was the good and ANSL system? Together mine was around $5,000 and was definitely the most expensive part.
Thats about right give or take a couple hundred. Yes it is pretty pricey but needed. Hey its better than a restaurant setup where you need a makeup air system
@@fbaltierrez no doubt. Just so crazy how much they are and it’s just a fan lol
@@PapaPineapples lol. Yep. They should just let us put a small fan blowing up to the sky from Home Depot lol
@@fbaltierrez lol
In 2023 the cheapest I have found for a 7x12 is $5600... Is that too much? It's just the shell but it does come from a dealership bc Facebook Marketplace only seems to have the already built ones and they are selling way more than 10K which is not what I can afford
Hi any way I can reach you? I’m starting next month on my trailer I just have a lot of questions. Love your work!
Best way email rollingburritosfoodtruck@gmail.com 👍
Congrats looking forward to the new project you have 💯💯
Have you sold it yet? Because I’m curious lol
Saludos cuánto se podrá cobrar por hacer todas las instalaciones en un food truck de 14’ x 8’
Hola Buenas Tardes, la verdad no hago trabajos para nadie de trailas nomas para mi y para Los videos que subo aqui
Thanks for your videos. I’m currently watching ALL of them. Can you send me your spreadsheet?
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1o8WD4RIyg3cPFNBSx94LRN-bKA5va8Z4IOuJvYMwp4c/edit?usp=drivesdk
I would like the list please thank you
Brot, we're you buy sheet metal?
Bought them last year from a local metal shop Roco Steel
Could you post a close up of the list?
Good morning, added a link to description for you to make it accessible
Stumbled across your series, do you still provide information (spreadsheet, advice, etc)??
Yes. Rollingburritosfoodtruck@gmail.com
I just paid $2200 for my stainless and aluminum and the transition pieces
I have a food truck and does all the walls need to be stainless steel metal. I'm Pennsylvania.?
Doesn't all have to be but in the long run it's the best option. I would never build a truck that doesn't have stainless steel wall personally speaking
@@fbaltierrez I send you a video of my food truck and ask for your opinion. It will be a challenge for me but have confidence on ur videos.
@@josemongeaviles8549 saw them briefly earlier, let me see them tonight in more detail but looking at it sometimes its better to rip out the old and start fresh sometimes
How Frank, what’s the average cost to wire a food truck by a professional and what’s the average to DIY it yourself?
Well DIY is just material cost and some free time to put it all together I would say someone would charge about 1,500 ish.
Can you send me the list of everything that you purchased to build your truck I’m building one now
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1o8WD4RIyg3cPFNBSx94LRN-bKA5va8Z4IOuJvYMwp4c/edit?usp=drivesdk
HEY I LOVE WHAT YOU DID I WANT TO DOIT HOW CANT I GET FROM YOU THE COST SHEET AND WHAT I NEED TO BUILD MY OWN FOOD TRUCK PLEASE LET ME KNOW PLEASE THANKS
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1o8WD4RIyg3cPFNBSx94LRN-bKA5va8Z4IOuJvYMwp4c/edit?usp=drivesdk
I wish you still lived here so I can hire you to finish my trailer.
Lol. Hopefully these videos help you that way you can tackle it yourself
Do you think rolled ice cream is a good idea on a food truck?
It is possible for sure. However it can get tricky with all the temperature control
12 minutes to answer ONE fvqkin question!
👍👍
😂😂😂😂
How many hours or your time do you think it took you to build the Food Trailer?
Good question, I haven't kept track of that in complete detail but if I had to guess I would say that in 1.5 months you can get one done if you work on it interrupted in that time if you know all the materials you need and order promptly
3 years ago I made a $7800 investment and built my mobile BBQ trailer "Tilley's Stick Burner BBQ " 👍...... with inflation I would say that same investment would be about $11,000 now.
Definitely agree!!!! Prices went through the roof
did you say 10k - 20k thousand dollars in expenses after you build it?
Apart from the trailer cost it is another 10-20k for sure. If it's a full kitchen
@@fbaltierrez oh so you mean minus the original trailer price i thought you meant in fees, permits, and such after the kitchen was built! so whats the total roughly on your excat build because what im gonna be building is something similar to yours give or take a few things mine will more than likely be smaller depending on the cost of the trailer i was thinking a 12ft by 8.5ft trailer but if its not to much more expensive ill get your size it all depends what i come across but im basically building a similar lay out so i wanna know what the total would be roughly
Por favor dame el grueso del metal para el piso.
