Absolutely! Customization is one of our specialties. Our carts can be customized with different colors, countertop layouts, serving configurations, umbrellas, logos and branding, and other features depending on your needs. Whether you're creating a charcuterie cart, beverage station, mobile display, floral cart, or something completely unique, we're happy to discuss your ideas. For more extensive custom work, simply submit a Custom Cart Request and tell us what you have in mind.
Our carts are handcrafted primarily from quality wood and plywood materials selected for strength while keeping the cart manageable for transportation and event use. Depending on the cart and options selected, components may include laminated birch plywood tops, painted or finished wood surfaces, quality hardware, and other materials appropriate for the design. Because our carts are made in our own workshop rather than mass-produced, construction and materials may vary depending on the model and customization requested.
Shipping anywhere within the continental United States is included in the price of your cart. The price you see is the price you pay—there are no additional shipping charges added at checkout for standard delivery within the continental U.S.Orders shipping outside the continental U.S., including Hawaii and Canada, will require additional shipping charges. These fees typically range from approximately $300–$500, depending on the destination, cart, and shipping requirements. Please contact us before ordering for an exact shipping quote.
Our carts are shipped in separate boxes and require minimal assembly upon arrival. Assembly consists primarily of attaching a few accessories, such as casters, handles, and hinges.Once these accessories are installed, they remain in place and do not need to be removed again. Our carts are designed to easily fold down for convenient transportation and storage, then quickly unfold and set up whenever you're ready to use them.A little assembly up front, then quick and easy setup for every event afterward!
Production time varies depending on the cart, customization, current workload, and time of year. Because our carts are made to order rather than pulled from a warehouse, please refer to the current production time shown on the product page or provided with your custom quote. If you have a specific event date, let us know before ordering so we can determine whether your timeline is possible. Expedited shipping does not necessarily shorten production time.
Yes. We can incorporate business logos and other branding into many of our cart designs. Logo requirements and available methods can vary depending on the cart and design. If you're ordering for a business, venue, caterer, planner, or event company, send us your logo and we'll help determine the best way to incorporate it.
Yes. One of the advantages of our cart system is the ability to use different tops for different purposes. We offer additional cart tops in various layouts, including options designed for charcuterie pans and other serving configurations. Tops can also be made without an umbrella opening when preferred. Because our standard tops are designed specifically for our carts, contact us if you need one modified to work with a cart you already own.
Definitely. Some of our favorite projects begin with an idea rather than an existing product. If you need a different layout, special countertop, unusual configuration, branded business cart, or another modification, submit our Custom Cart Request with as much information as possible. You can also upload photos, drawings, logos, or inspiration images to help us understand what you're looking for.
