Step By Step On Moving A Vending Machine

Moving_Vending_MachineHere are the step by step basic rules that anyone can apply when moving a vending machine!  It is best to have 2 or more people do this job to keep things simple and injury free.

  • Empty the vending machine.

Always empty the vending machine before you plan to move it.  Take out all of the snacks, drinks, and change from the machine.  You do not want them to get disorganized and potentially break and make a huge mess!  Taking the extra few minutes to do this will save you from cleaning up a broken can of spilled beverage everywhere!

  • Measure doorways and hallways

Make sure your vending machine will fit through any doors and hallways that you are planning to go through.  You may have to take off some doors to go through them.  If you do, make sure you bring the proper tools to pop those doors easily.  Doing this will make sure you do not damage any areas with your vending machine.

  • Tie up the power chords

Tie the power chords of the vending machine with regular plastic twist ties.  You do not want to accidentally run the chords over with your dolly or step on them and potentially fall.  Take the time to wind them up neatly so they are out of the way.

  • Have a furniture dolly

  • Wipe down machine

Make sure you wipe down your vending machine once you place it in it’s new home location.  Wipe away hand prints and any dirt or debris that may have landed on your vending machine.  Make it look new and fresh and it will be ready to serve it’s new customers.

  • Refill machine

  • You are ready for business!

Ways To Expand Your Vending Business

It is easy to get into a routine with vending.  You have invested in a certain number of vending machine equipment.  The machines go in a set number of business locations.  The time it takes to service those business locations is approximately the same every single week.

Now you’re wondering how to put your vending company name out there to gain more business.  How do you add more businesses to your every day route?  The first thing to look into is to try and get more vending machine equipment.  Having more equipment will give you an idea of how much more business you are able to service.

Next, take a look at some advertising.  You need to make sure you have contact information on all of the vending machines you currently have out.  Then, take a look at direct mailing advertising, internet, yellow pages.  You need to let the local businesses know that you are around!
