18ft Step Van Food Truck with Bathroom
This new 18ft step van food truck with bathroom is a professionally built, turnkey commercial mobile kitchen designed for operators who demand reliability, power, and full compliance. Engineered for high-volume food service, this unit is ideal for festivals, campuses, catering operations, street vending, and extended service hours where durability and operator comfort matter. Built on a brand-new 18 ft step van chassis, this food truck provides the space and structural integrity required for a true commercial kitchen. All systems from electrical and propane to plumbing and ventilationare designed to meet health department and fire code requirements, making the truck inspection-ready and easy to permit.
Reliable Diesel Power System
The truck is powered by a quiet under-mount Cummins Onan 12kW diesel generator, mounted on a slide-out tray for easy service and maintenance. This commercial-grade generator delivers stable power for refrigeration, cooking equipment, air conditioning, lighting, and electronics without excessive noise.
The generator is supported by an 18-gallon diesel fuel tank with an interior fuel gauge, allowing operators to monitor fuel levels during operation. This configuration is ideal for long service days and locations without shore power.
Climate Control & Ventilation
To maintain a safe and comfortable working environment, the truck is equipped with two 15,000 BTU roof-mounted air conditioning units, ensuring consistent cooling even during peak summer conditions.
The kitchen ventilation system features a commercial stainless steel hood system equipped with an exhaust fan, make-up air fan, and an integrated fire suppression system, with the suppression tank remotely mounted in the driver’s cab for safety and accessibility. This setup supports heavy commercial cooking while meeting ventilation and fire safety standards.
Commercial Kitchen Interior
The interior is finished entirely in stainless steel, including walls, countertops, shelving, and cabinets. This construction provides long-term durability, easy cleaning, and full compliance with commercial health standards.
The flooring is heavy-duty diamond rubber, offering slip resistance and comfort during extended service hours. All countertops, wall shelving, wall cabinets, refrigeration units, and installed equipment are commercial-grade stainless steel and NSF certified.
Kitchen Equipment & Refrigeration
This 18ft step van food truck comes fully equipped with commercial-grade cooking and refrigeration equipment, designed for high-output food service operations:
- Three (3) 50 lb commercial deep fryers
- Range combo unit featuring two burners, a 24″ flat grill, and a 30″ oven
- 48″ under-counter freezer
- Commercial holding proofer cabinet
- Sandwich prep refrigerator with 8 topping rail
- Two (2) reach-in refrigerators, each 23 cu ft
- 72″ drink refrigerator with stainless steel countertop
All kitchen equipment and refrigeration units are commercial-grade stainless steel and NSF certified, ensuring durability, performance, and code compliance.
Plumbing & Food Safety
The truck includes a 3-compartment sink and a dedicated hand-washing sink, both NSF certified. The plumbing layout is designed to meet standard health department requirements for mobile food service operations.
Full Bathroom Onboard
A major advantage of this build is the full 40-inch bathroom, a rare feature in food trucks of this size. The bathroom includes a dedicated entry door, roof exhaust fan for ventilation, and a hand sink, making the truck ideal for long events, remote locations, and jurisdictions that require onboard restroom access.
Exterior Features, Digital Display & Branding
Customer service is streamlined with a 6-foot serving window, providing efficient workflow and strong customer visibility. The rear of the truck features a rear entry door with screen, allowing airflow while keeping insects out.
The truck is also equipped with a TV monitor display housed in a dedicated compartment with an awning door. The TV is a full sun–exposure, outdoor-rated display, making it clearly visible even in direct sunlight. This setup is ideal for digital menus, promotions, videos, or branding content, while protecting the screen when not in use.
The exterior is finished with a full-body 3M graphic wrap, delivering a professional appearance, complete branding customization, and long-term exterior protection.
