HOW MUCH IT COSTS

How much does candy cart hire cost in the UK?

We do not yet have a reliable UK figure for this.

Every price on this site is researched for the market it is shown in. We have not found a the UK source we can stand over for candy cart hire, so there is no range here rather than an Irish figure with a pound sign on it. The rest of this guide β€” what the job involves, what moves the price and what to ask β€” still applies.

What moves the price

  • Sweets included or not β€” a candy cart supplied with pick and mix costs more than hiring the cart alone
  • Guest numbers β€” more guests mean more sweets and bags at the candy cart
  • Cart style β€” vintage carts, chandeliers and floral dressing are priced above a plain cart
  • Branding β€” names, logos or themed signage on the candy cart add to the hire
  • Staffed or self-serve β€” an attendant serving sweets costs more than a self-serve cart
  • Delivery β€” candy cart firms often charge per van, and long journeys add to the quote

Candy Cart Hire cost: questions people ask

No UK publisher sets out a price range for candy cart hire, so prices vary by supplier. Ask two or three for a written price that says whether sweets, bags and delivery are included.

Usually for the event, set up before guests arrive and collected at the end or the next day.

If they supply the sweets, yes. Food businesses must tell customers about the 14 major allergens in the food they provide.

Many suppliers add names, a date or a logo to the cart for an extra charge.

Sweets on a cart-only hire, branding, decoration, an attendant and long-distance delivery are commonly extra.
