Seasonal Tips

Seasonal Booking Tips for Portage Food Truck Catering

Portage event planners should plan around seasonal demand in the Chicago metro. Here's how to get the best availability and pricing throughout the year.

Peak Season Planning

Spring (March-May) and fall (September-November) are the busiest seasons for food truck catering in Porter County. Book 4-6 weeks ahead during these months for the best truck selection.

Summer Heat Strategies

Summers in Portage can be hot. For outdoor events, consider morning service before 11am or evening service after 5pm. Covered parking areas and shaded patios work well for midday events.

Off-Peak Opportunities
