Food Truck / Mobile Kitchen Insurance

Protect Your Crew, Your Kitchen, and Your Wheels

Operating a food truck or mobile kitchen in California offers flexibility and freedom — but it also brings unique risks. Between tight workspaces, hot equipment, and daily travel, injuries and accidents can happen fast.

Our Food Truck Insurance Program is built specifically for California mobile food operators. We help you stay compliant, protect your workers, and keep your business rolling with tailored Workers’ Comp and full-coverage protection.

Why Burger Shops Need Specialized Insurance

Mobile kitchens face a mix of on-road and on-site hazards that traditional restaurant insurance often misses:

  • Tight, high-heat workspaces with limited ventilation

  • Hot grills, fryers, and propane systems

  • Slip and fall risks in confined cooking areas

  • Driving and parking hazards during service routes

  • Frequent setup and teardown, increasing injury risk

Our specialized coverage ensures you’re protected wherever your kitchen goes — from festivals and events to regular lunch routes.

Workers’ Comp Protection

Covers employee injuries, medical costs, and lost wages—keeping your team safe and your business compliant.

Full Coverage Solutions

Bundle liability, property, and cyber protection for complete fast-food business security.

Income Protection

Stay financially stable during shutdowns with Business Interruption coverage.

Workers’ Compensation Insurance — Protecting Your Mobile Team

In California, Workers’ Compensation is mandatory for all food truck employees. But beyond compliance, it’s key to keeping your team safe and your business running.

A solid Workers’ Comp plan helps cover:

  • Medical expenses for burns, slips, or setup-related injuries

  • Lost wages during recovery

  • Rehabilitation and retraining programs

  • Legal protection for workplace claims

Common Food Truck Employee Injuries We Cover

  • Burns from hot oil, grills, or steam

  • Slips in cramped kitchens

  • Cuts from knives or prep tools

  • Lifting and strain injuries from setup

  • Vehicle or loading accidents

We also help reduce your Workers’ Comp costs by managing claims efficiently and lowering your Experience Modifier (X-Mod) through proactive safety programs.

Business Interruption Insurance

Even a short-term closure can devastate a fast-food restaurant’s revenue.
Business Interruption Insurance helps cover:

  • Lost income during shutdowns

  • Payroll and rent while repairs are made

  • Temporary relocation costs

It ensures your business survives unexpected interruptions — from fires to natural disasters — without financial strain.

Restaurants Offering Health or Nutrition Services

If your restaurant provides any type of nutritional consulting, allergen guidance, or health-related service, you could face liability if a customer claims harm due to advice or labeling errors.

Medical Malpractice Coverage protects against:

  • Allegations of misinformation or negligence

  • Claims linked to food allergies or dietary advice

  • Legal costs and settlements

This coverage is increasingly important as California enforces stricter food-safety and labeling standards.

A Business Owners Policy (BOP) combines key protections — General Liability, Property Coverage, and Business Interruption Insurance — into one affordable package. It’s a simple way to safeguard your business, equipment, and income against unexpected losses.

Workers’ Compensation

Covers your employees if they get hurt or sick on the job. Workers’ Compensation Insurance pays for medical bills, lost wages, and rehabilitation while helping your business stay compliant with California law. It protects both your team and your bottom line.
