Planner's guide
Best For: Corporate lunch events and daytime functions, evening receptions and cocktail parties, weekend celebrations and private gatherings, early morning breakfast events and conference catering
What planners usually like:
- Seven-day-a-week availability with extended hours (8 AM – 10 PM) eliminates scheduling conflicts for early starts or late-night events
- Clear communication approach reduces back-and-forth delays during the planning and execution phases
- Flexibility to accommodate both standard business hours and unconventional event timing in Melbourne's busy event calendar
Things to clarify before booking:
- Request detailed menu options and pricing breakdown to understand cost per head for your specific guest count and event type
- Confirm minimum order requirements, setup/breakdown fees, and whether staffing (servers, bartenders) is included in quoted pricing
- Verify their capacity for your venue size and whether they handle equipment provision (tables, chairs, serving stations) or if you need to arrange separately
- Discuss dietary requirements, allergen protocols, and customisation options before finalising your catering contract
Common questions
Does The Cart Co accommodate dietary requirements and allergies?
Most Melbourne catering services offer customisation for dietary needs including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and allergen-conscious menus. Contact The Cart Co directly at +61 433 858 771 to discuss your specific requirements, as policies vary by caterer regarding advance notice and menu modifications.
What's the typical minimum guest count for catering orders?
Catering services in Melbourne typically have minimum orders ranging from 20-50 guests, though this varies significantly. Reach out to The Cart Co to confirm their minimums and whether they can accommodate smaller, more intimate events or if pricing adjusts for lower guest counts.
Are staff, servers, and equipment included in catering quotes?
This varies considerably between caterers. Some include service staff and table setup, while others charge separately. Clarify with The Cart Co whether your quote covers staff wages, equipment rental, setup/breakdown, or if these are additional line items that affect your final budget.
Can The Cart Co cater at venues outside Melbourne CBD?
Their Melbourne location (VIC 3000) suggests CBD-based operations, but many caterers service surrounding suburbs. Contact them to confirm delivery areas, travel fees for locations outside their standard service radius, and whether they can accommodate your specific venue.
How far in advance should I book catering services?
Most Melbourne caterers recommend booking 4-6 weeks ahead for standard events, though availability varies seasonally. For events during peak periods (spring/summer or December), book earlier. Reach out to The Cart Co to understand their current booking timeline and any rush order availability.
What payment terms and cancellation policies should I expect?
Catering contracts typically require a deposit (25-50% of total cost) with final payment due 7-14 days before the event. Cancellation policies vary widely—some offer full refunds if cancelled 4+ weeks out, others have strict non-refund policies. Request The Cart Co's full terms in writing before committing.
