What makes a good hot dog tray

A hot dog with chili, slaw or onions needs a container with sides. Custom hot dog trays are folded paperboard boats with raised walls that cradle the bun and catch toppings, so customers can eat standing up or walking around a stadium. Printed with your logo and colors, the tray turns a quick concession item into something recognizable, and it often ends up in photos at games and festivals.

Open boat trays are fast to fill and serve. Clamshell hot dog holders close over the bun for takeaway and delivery. Single trays fit standard buns, while double or extended trays hold footlongs or two dogs with fries. White board shows bright team or brand colors, and kraft board fits gourmet and barbecue menus. Ask about grease-resistant coatings and food-contact boards, and check the rules that apply to your food service.

Print the logo on the long side walls, where customers see it while eating, and add a pattern or slogan to the ends. Event and team designs can be printed as separate versions in one order. Measure your buns with toppings in mind, and leave a little room so the tray holds them without squashing the bun. If you sell several sizes, keep one design across all of them.

FAQ

Custom Hot Dog Trays: questions answered

Still unsure? Ask a packaging specialist.

What are hot dog trays made of?

Most are folded paperboard, either white or kraft, with raised sides that hold the bun and toppings. Many use a grease-resistant coating to keep sauces from soaking through. Tell us your menu and we suggest a board and coating.

Can I get custom printed hot dog trays with my logo?

Yes. Logos, patterns and slogans can be printed on the side walls and ends. The digital proof shows how the design wraps around the folded tray, so you can check logo placement on each wall before production.

What size hot dog tray do I need?

Measure your bun with toppings, and choose single, footlong or double trays based on your menu. Send the bun length and width, and we size the tray so it holds the hot dog snugly without crushing it.

Do you make closed hot dog holders for takeaway?

Yes. Clamshell hot dog holders close over the bun, which helps keep toppings in place for takeaway and delivery. They can be printed in the same design as your open trays, so dine-in and takeaway orders match.
