If you don’t qualify for financing through North Star Leasing, Clicklease or National Business Capital, we recommend contacting your local certified Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFI). Also, you may also want to consider a HELOC or mortgage refinance loan. For even more financing options, check out our Food Truck Financing post in the Resources tab.
If you finance, you will pay the lender a down payment at signing, plus an ongoing monthly payment until your loan or lease term ends. You will then own the vehicle.
If you want to pay Firefly cash or check, a deposit of $40,000 (plus optional vinyl wrap cost of $4000) is due when you place the order. The remainder is due within seven days of completion or prior to the trailer leaving our facility, whichever comes first.
Yes! Every new food trailer and food truck that Firefly manufactures comes with a nationwide, 2-year warranty at no additional charge.
Yes! Firefly provides a Manufacturer’s Certificate of Origin (MCO/MSO) and invoice which will allow you to title and register the trailer in your state. Registering the trailer with your DMV will allow you to tow and park your Workhorse legally on public roads.
If you choose to lease a Workhorse trailer, your financing company may complete some or all of this paperwork on your behalf.
The Workhorse Food Trailer is built to California Retail Food Code and has already passed many Health Department inspections throughout California.
However, every town, city and state is allowed to set their own standards when it comes to permitting a mobile food facility. This makes it impossible for a food trailer design to be universally approved everywhere.
Firefly will provide a digital download of the full set of food truck plan drawings and equipment specification sheets for you to use in your permit application.
If you wish to submit an application prior to purchasing your trailer, you can pay a non-refundable fee of $250 to access the plans and specification sheets. Your $250 will be applied to the purchase price of any truck or trailer you buy with Firefly.
For Firefly to GUARANTEE that your food trailer or food truck will pass your local inspection, we charge an additional fee of $3,359. Contact us for more details.
Yes! Firefly has been approved by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to issue VINs and is a California Department of Motor Vehicles (CA DMV) licensed trailer manufacturer.
Unlike many trailers you might buy off Alibaba or Ebay, all Firefly trailers meet Department of Transportation (DOT) trailer safety regulations and are street legal. Plus, having a Trailer Manufacturer’s License allows us to build special trailers that are perfectly suited for mobile kitchens. Think wider bodies for more aisle space, thicker metal for long lasting durability, and higher GVWR rated axles to safely transport heavy equipment and food.
Want to change the interior? We may be able to make minor equipment changes to the Workhorse Food Trailer. Please contact us to discuss.
Want to change the exterior? You can customize the silver metal exterior with a colorful vinyl wrap for only $4000. Our in-house graphic designer will work with you to create a look to attract customers to your business. Logo-only partial wraps are also available for less.

The propane tank that we recommend for this concession trailer is any 100lb vertical refillable propane tank. These items can be purchased from many stores including Home Depot, Harbor Freight and Lowes.
Your Workhorse Food Trailer will be completed in about 6 weeks from the time of purchase.
