Common Questions About Vollrath Plastic Trays

What size Vollrath fast food tray should I get?

You'll need a few measurements to ensure your new trays fit your establishment. Vollrath trays range from 14 to 18.5 inches long and 10 to 14 inches wide, so you'll have to measure the place you plan on storing the trays as well as your tables and serving lines.

Do I need more than one color of Vollrath cafeteria tray?

Hospitals, food courts, and other businesses can use multiple tray colors for reasons beyond having a nice color palette. A hospital could have different colors for different departments, which would notify employees of where each tray originated. Food courts could give each vendor their own color, promoting accountability and keeping everyone more organized. Using multiple colors of trays is also a good way to prevent allergenic cross contamination in restaurant and care home environments.

In what quantities are Vollrath plastic trays sold?

Vollrath cafeteria trays come in packs of 24, 12, and, for a few colors, individually. The more you purchase, the less each individual tray will cost, but don't forget that you'll need space to store each tray when they aren't in use.

How easy is it to store Vollrath plastic trays?

All the plastic trays Vollrath offers are stackable, which saves space when you're storing them and when they're not being used or cleaned. Because these trays can be stacked, operators should purchase trays of one size if they don't want multiple stacks.

Many operators choose to store their trays on a tray dispensing cart, which is a type of cart that enables easy storage, transportation, and distribution of high volumes of trays.

Should I get linen look or plain trays?

Vollrath plastic trays have either a plain surface, which is smooth, or a linen look surface. The linen look surface provides extra traction for plates, cups, and flatware your guests are carrying, but it costs a bit more than the smooth surface.
