Types of Mobile Food Units

Mobile Food Units come in all shapes and styles! They include food trucks, food trailers, push carts, and even bike carts.

University Departments interested in hosting a food truck on campus for their event may book an approved and permitted vendor by contacting Chartwells or e-mail chartwells@txstate.edu at least 30 days ahead of your event.

IMPORTANT:  Once your food truck is confirmed, your department must notify EHSREM via Bobcat Organization HUB and select one of the pre-approved sites and provide the date and time of your event.  This is important so that your food truck has a windshield operating certificate (WOC) to display during their operation.  This is required. 

If you wish to bring a vendor not on Chartwell’s approved list, you must allow 45 days ahead of your event for your chosen MFU to become an approved vendor/caterer through Dining Support Services and submit a health permit application to EHSREM.  Applications received after the 45 day deadline will not be considered.
