Weddings will have priority if they are booked with Big Green Truck Pizza. They said they'll then contact the last person that scheduled a party to see if it's possible to reschedule.
If the company is unable to accommodate, they said deposits will be refunded in full. If you have an event booked with them and are able to reschedule or no longer wish to have the reservation, they're asking that you email the office at pizza.bgt@gmail.com.
"We want to thank everyone who has called with concern and kind words. We are strong and we will rebuild, however, getting an oven built and shipped will take close to 12 weeks and fabricating a truck with our specifications takes almost a year," they said on Facebook.
