1. Keeping Your Vending Machines Safe
As we’ve noted in the past, building a vending machine
empire is about more that finding a couple of used
vending machines for sale and plunking them down on
the nearest corner. It takes research, dedication, hard
work, and patience to turn vending machines into a real
business with real income. And one constant threat to
this income is theft.
People steal from vending machines in a number of
ways. Sometimes they steal products from the
machine. Sometimes they break the machine and
empty it out. In more rare cases, thieves will
compromise the payment system and take the vending
machine’s money in addition to or instead of its
products. Understanding how to protect your machines
is an important step in ensuring the success of your
business.
Vet Locations Carefully Your vending machine location should be well-trafficked and well-
lit. It should also provide plenty of safety for the people who use your machines. Many of
the qualities that make for a profitable location also make for a safe one; don’t be afraid to
delay adding that next machine to your network instead of placing it in the first location you
find. Wait for quality, safe locations to open.
Invest in Good Machines Don’t just by the cheapest used vending machine for sale you find.
Instead, invest in quality, modern machines with strong safety features. New technology
yields new safety standards that are harder to crack and more reliable. The better your
machines, the safer your income.
Check Your Machines Don’t just swing by the machine location when it’s time for a refill.
You should be checking your machines frequently to ensure they’re still operating correctly
and that no one has attempted to tamper with them. A thief that fails one night might
return another; spotting these things early can help prevent losses.
