• 12 foot “super swooper’ Hot dog feather flag is included and always is a sure way to draw customers to your spot
• Brand new red 8 feet umbrella equipped with LED solar lights which looks great day or night (and is required in most states per health department regulations). Currently licensed in Tennessee

Additional Functionality comes with the NSF stainless prep counter which runs along the left side of the cart and there is an additional 4-foot NSF serving counter that attaches in seconds that expands your working area even more and makes a great spot to hang a standard 4’x3’ custom banner. There is even a USB charging port mounted on the back of the prep counter – handy to keep your smartphone charged on a long day with lots of credit cards swipes and/or call ahead orders.

The cart securely carries two propane bottles so you are never caught running out of gas at the wrong time. There is also a fresh, new ABC rated fire extinguisher mounted on the tongue of the trailer, along with a bolt-on leveling jack.

Hey Slingers,

I just heard about a used Cart Concepts Model 425 for sale. You don’t find these on the used market all that often so I wanted to share this with you.

The Model 425 is known as the Cadillac of Carts. It is one of the most well constructed hot dog carts you can buy.

Whether you are a seasoned slinger or a pure newbie, this Model 425 will serve you well, and make you a ton of money.

This cart is for sale SOLD…

We are pleased to offer this like new hot dog cart for sale. Used for 2 months during the summer and has been garaged since.

A high dollar hot dog cart for a small price. This is the famous Hank’s Franks hot dog cart. With four full size pans plus a flat top griddle, you’ll be able to handle any size event with ease!

This spotless side serve cart is nicely equipped with a three compartment sink, a separate hand washing sink, a ten gallon fresh water tank, and a 15 gallon grey water tank.

Tons of extras. You also get two hinged dome top lids, two roll top lids, four propane tanks, 12 coolers, a pop up canopy, a folding picnic table with 3 umbrellas, an aluminum prep table with a stainless top, signs, custom cart cover, four condiment trays (2 still new in the box) and more.

You can even keep the Hank’s Franks name! Or, if you want to rebrand it to your own business name, just peel off the Hank’s Franks vinyl wrap and add your own wrap or signage.

This is a super rare opportunity. I see lots of carts with three or four half size pans, but a cart with four full size pans plus a flat top griddle is a really rare machine. If you bought one new it would cost $15,000 to $20,000 or more (sometimes much more) from a quality manufacturer.

You will almost never find a four full size pan + flat top cart on the used market. You’re looking at one right now.

I haven’t seen a anything this size and this nice on the used hot dog cart market in years. You should be able to make serious money in any location with this eye catching, high production rig.

If you think too long about this fantastic cart, you are going to lose it. Who knows when we’ll see another four full size pan + flat top griddle cart as nice as this for such a steal of a price.

SOLD.

Funny stuff…

Who wants to make close to $1000 for six hours of fun (I mean work)? I need a Hot Dog Cart vendor to work a two day gig March 3rd and 4th in the Washington DC area.

You will give away hundreds of hot dogs each day, ketchup and mustard ONLY. The promoter will reimburse you up front for all product costs.

This is an excellent gig. I have worked with this promoter many times before and my slingers who have worked these gigs have all had glowing reports.

These gigs usually pay about $600 to $700 but this one will pay much higher.

You must be licensed!

Call Mark at 260.271.9144 or email at marklski@hotmail.com for dates and more info.

Don’t have your hot dog biz up and running yet? There are big pay days like this one every weekend in towns across America that you’re missing out on. Want to get started? Click here for the best way.
