Mobile Food Truck Licenses

Good Information from the Tulsa Health Department.

All food service establishments in Tulsa County, including mobile food vending operations, require a license that must be renewed annually. THD categorizes mobile food services as follows:

• Full-service mobile: a vehicle or trailer designed and equipped to prepare and serve open food products.
• Pre-packaged mobile: a vehicle or trailer limited to the sale of commercially manufactured pre-packaged products, or products prepared and packaged at a licensed food service establishment.
• Pushcart: a non-self-propelled vehicle limited to the sale of non-potentially hazardous foods, the sale of commercially pre-packaged foods maintained at proper temperatures, or the preparation and sale of frankfurters.

Construction, Equipment and Operation Guidelines

Full-service mobile food establishments are required to meet certain regulations regarding their construction, water system, equipment, personnel and food safety. Pre-packaged mobile and pushcart food establishments are exempted from some of these requirements.
