Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, we carry general and $2 million liquor liability insurance. If you have any questions on your venue’s restrictions, we would love to reach out to them. We will gladly add your venue on our COI and send your venue a copy. We are a Limited Liability Company, and our staff carries Food and Alcohol Certification, ServSafe Management and/or TIPS certification.

11. DO YOU HAVE INSURANCE?

Absolutely! We can use our trailer for any idea you choose. We specialize in our mocktails just as much as we do cocktails, hand crafted coffee, soda, infused water, lemonade and tea.

02. IF WE’RE NOT HAVING ALCOHOL AT OUR EVENT, CAN WE STILL USE THE TRAILER?

For best serving practices of quick and efficient service, we ask our clients to supply 750mL bottles or 1 Liter bottles, especially for larger parties. However, we will not refrain from serving 1.75L as we understand they can be more budget friendly.

03. WHAT SIZE LIQUOR BOTTLES SHOULD WE PURCHASE?

We have three bars to select from:
Horse Trailer, White Stationary Bar, and a Beer Tap Bar ​

04. HOW MANY MOBILE BARS DO YOU HAVE?

We love all types of celebrations!
Here is a list of a few: Wedding, Corporate Happy Hour, Bridal Shower, Birthday, Launch Party, Grand Opening, Work Event, Rehearsal Dinner, Holiday Party, Showers, Backyard BBQ, Engagement, Charity, Church Events, Block Party, Reunions, Corporate Event
Anything that involves a good drink...

05. WHAT TYPE OF EVENTS DOES THE MOBILE MIX SERVE?

The Mobile Mix is located in Newberry, South Carolina. The great thing is we are mobile and travel all around the South Carolina, surrounding counties, and also into parts of North Carolina, and Georgia. Our first 30 miles are free of charge, and we charge a $1.50 mile, for anything greater than 30 miles from 29108. Anything exceeding a 3-hour drive, will require an additional $250 for lodging accommodations. 
Contact us today and see if you are in our travel area!

06. WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED?

As soon as possible! We operate on a first come, first serve basis, and bar of choice. A 50% non - refundable retainer and signed contract must be in place to secure a date. This retainer will go towards your final payment. Unfortunately, since we block out your date specifically from further inquiries, we do not offer a retainer refund on cancellations.

07. How soon should we book a bar?

Yes! Sometimes our trailers are not the right fit, but our service is! We service events without our mobile bars.
We can service from your venue's bar space, or we have a portable bars rental to service larger events, indoor, or multiple bar events.

08. DO YOU SERVICE WITHOUT THE TRAILERS?

We do not carry glassware in our inventory. You can rent this through a third party. We do need to know when glassware is provided as our bars have limited storage space. We DO offer Toss ware! It is an upgrade to our plastic cups and an alternative to glassware. It is crystal clear, shatterproof, recyclable, reusable, and offered in many sizes and styles.

09. DO YOU OFFER GLASSWARE?

Yes. Our bar Horse trailer is equipped with 2 tap draft beer system. As well as a nitro cold brew tap for coffee events. Our mobile beer tap bar is equipped with 3 tap draft beer system. Keg usage will incur a handling fee for the extra ice, C02 and lifting. Additional kegs can be set on ice to keep them cold before they go into the appropriate space. We require the kegs to arrive at the venue 3 hours prior to serving, to ensure they settle in time. Please let us know in advance if you will be purchasing draft beer, so we can appropriately bring C02 for service.

10. CAN YOU SERVE BEER OUT OF KEGS?

Yes. Our bar Horse trailer is equipped with 2 tap draft beer system. As well as a nitro cold brew tap for coffee events. Our mobile beer tap bar is equipped with 3 tap draft beer system. Keg usage will incur a handling fee for the extra ice, C02 and lifting. Additional kegs can be set on ice to keep them cold before they go into the appropriate space. We require the kegs to arrive at the venue 3 hours prior to serving, to ensure they settle in time. Please let us know in advance if you will be purchasing draft beer, so we can appropriately bring C02 for service.

10. CAN YOU SERVE BEER OUT OF KEGS?

We require a 50% non-refundable initial payment to reserve the date. The remaining balance is due 30 days from event day, any cancellations made within 30 days of event date, lose the right to a full refund.

12. WHAT IS YOUR CANCELLATION POLICY?

A 18% Admin fee will be added to all invoices. If a tip jar is opted out, a 20% gratuity will be added to your final invoice.

13. DO YOU HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL FEES?

Each event is unique, which means each package price is tailored to the event. Our events vary in price depending on client's needs, how many hours, guests, day of the week, bartenders needed, if there are signature cocktails, etc. Prices typically start around $1,500 - $2,000. For 100 guests or more, our clients pricing averages between $2,500 - $4,000.

14. WHAT IS YOUR AVERAGE PRICING FOR AN EVENT?

An electrical outlet to plug in within 75 feet is needed to ensure our bar has lighting, we always bring extension cords. We also have a generator available if there is no outlet within reach.

15. DO YOU NEED ELECTRICITY?

We do not carry a liquor license. We are however, insured to service alcohol. We can service any private events where drinks are free to guests (birthday, wedding, shower, corporate event, etc.), but in order to service public events we cannot sell alcohol. We are a dry bar for hire; due to licensing in the State of South Carolina we are not allowed to supply (sell) the alcohol. This means we cannot do a cash bar. We can provide our business license and COI (proof of insurance) to your venue if they require it.
We are able to pick up liquor for your event and invoice this service separately from bar service.

16. WHO PROVIDES THE ALCOHOL? CAN YOU DO A CASH BAR?

Our ideal place for placement would be as close to leveled ground as possible for service. As well as being able to remove the trailer from the location after hours.

17. WHAT ARE THE PLACEMENT REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BAR?

We truly love styling our trailer tailored to each event. When a client books with us, we love to get all the details of their vision for their special day. Send us an email with all your ideas! We have a warehouse full of decor, and per your vision we bring along select items and have rental options for larger pieces.​
But yes, you are welcome to add decorations to the trailer to help match the look for your event. Any decorations added by the client must be placed décor (no hanging) or anything that would permanently alter the trailer.

18. CAN WE ADD DÉCOR?

Once set up and in place our mobile bars cannot be moved. We can offer a portable bar if you are needing a bar space setup somewhere else for things such as Cocktail Hour.

19. CAN YOU MOVE THE MOBILE BAR TO ANOTHER LOCATION?

Let’s be honest, weather is sometimes unpredictable! Due to our advanced booking, we cannot predict rain or bad weather dates. In the event rain or bad weather is projected for your outdoor event, we are happy to work with your tent vendor to find the appropriate size tent for our bar services. Tents must be at minimum 9ft tall for our bars to fit under.

20. WHAT IS YOUR RAIN PLAN?

A good amount of variables goes into your alcohol cost, including things such as brands, styles, sizes, amount of options. During our planning process we will gather insight from you on what options you wish to have and from there we will build a customized shopping list for you, best places to purchase, and places to return your alcohol. Unfortunately, we do not put this together prior to securing our services. This is typically put together 3 months out from the event date, however if our clients need it sooner, we can assist.

21. HOW MUCH SHOULD I EXPECT TO SPEND ON ALCOHOL?
