How to choose a craft services company

Drop-off, attended, or a full crafty department

The lightest option is a drop-off: a stocked table delivered before call that the production refills. Next is an attended setup, with a crafty person who keeps the table clean, restocked and rotated all day. On larger shows, craft services is its own department with a truck or trailer. Match the format to the crew size and the length of the day.

What a good crafty table has

Coffee and tea ready before the first department arrives, water and electrolyte drinks, fresh fruit, protein snacks, something sweet and something savory, and choices for vegan, gluten-free and nut-free crew. On long days, the best crafty adds warm bites in the afternoon and again after second meal.

Locations change the plan

On a stage, crafty has power, water and a fixed spot. On a practical location or a desert set, ask whether the company brings its own tables, shade, coolers and power, and how it handles a company move halfway through the day.

Budget per person, per day

Ask craft services companies to quote per person per day, with delivery, equipment and attendant hours listed separately. That makes a drop-off quote easy to compare with an attended one, and it shows how the price moves when the count grows on a big day.

What it costs in Los Angeles

Craft services in Los Angeles are budgeted per person, per day. LA crafty companies that publish a figure land between the low teens and the twenties, and an attendant or premium items push it higher.

Typical per-person ranges for craft services in Los Angeles
WhatTypical range
Drop-off crafty table$12 to $20 per person per day
Attended crafty with premium items$15 to $25 per person per day
Crafty attendant billed by the hour$40 to $60 per hour
Hot meal from the same company$18 to $35 per person

Crew size, call length and location drive the price: a 14 hour day on a desert location needs more stock, ice, shade and power than a half day on a stage. Equipment kits, delivery and attendant hours are often billed apart from the food.

Marbled LA's own pricing for a crew day starts at $22 per person for breakfast and $24 per person for a Menu 1 hot lunch, with delivery from $150 per drop, $2.50 per person for disposables and a 15 percent service charge.

Tips

  • Ask for a per-person, per-day price with delivery and attendant hours shown separately, so a drop-off quote and an attended quote line up.
  • On a small shoot, ordering crafty from the kitchen that sends the hot meal can save a second delivery fee.

These are typical Los Angeles market ranges drawn from public price lists and cost guides, not quotes. Every caterer prices its own menus, so ask each one for a written quote.

Frequently asked questions

Is craft services the same as set catering?

No. Set catering serves the scheduled meals, such as breakfast and lunch. Craft services runs the snack, coffee and drink station that stays open between meals, from call until wrap.

Do small shoots need a crafty person?

Not always. For a small crew on a short day, a drop-off table that a PA keeps tidy is often enough. For longer days or bigger crews, an attendant keeps the table stocked, fresh and safe.

Who handles crafty on a non-union shoot?

Usually the production hires a craft services company or assigns a PA to buy and run it. Either way, set a per-person budget and collect the crew's dietary list early.

Can a craft services company also handle meals?

Some can. Several companies on this list offer both crafty and hot meals, which keeps ordering simple on smaller productions.
