Hi Alan,
The main difference between the both is that a static trailer such as a kiosk or portacabin is normally situated in one place on a permanent basis.

A mobile catering trailer such as the one you own is more easily mobile and can be towed back and forth as needed. Saying this most mobile catering trailers can also be located on a pitch on a permanent basis if need be.

Anyway as not to confuse the matter in your particular application you would class you trailer as a mobile catering trailer and not a static trailer.

Hope this helps.
Regards
David
