What type of vending machine do I need to sell bulk items?
Q. I am thinking about starting a vending route and would like to know more about the machines before investing a large amount of money into something that may not be my best bet. Are there bulk item machines? None of my items are going to be refrigerated food, so I don't think I need that option. But I would like to sell baby toys, diapers, food, advil, wipes ect...If you have any ideas to point me in the right direction that would be great.

A. You want a regular snack machine (5-6ft tall). The good brands are: Rowe, Automatic Products, and National. A good used one is 800-1400. New are 2-3K. You will need wide spirals for bigger items. You can look one ebay if your carefull. Find one close to you, with a warranty. They are 500-600 lbs, so have help to move. Test dollar bill acceptor and buy something to get change to see if the coin mech works. ?'s, email rualst@yahoo.com

A. While vending machines use a variety of methods to read bills, they check four different characteristics used to verify paper money: Bills are printed with magnetic ink, and different denominations generate distinctive magnetic fields. Bills have different conductivities (the rate at which they can conduct low levels of electricity). Ultraviolet scanning technology can determine the different fluorescent properties of bills. Digital cameras can reference the optical patterns in bills with a database of authentic patterns. A vending machine has to verify whether a bill is authentic before it determines its value.

A. Any major city will have several vending machine providers. They'll install the machines, keep them stocked with food/beverage and you can set the price to either their prices or a small markup. Google "vending machines in Boston" or wherever you are.

A. Better yet - check out this one: www.moobella.com I'm the engineer behind the pneumatic system in this machine. I'm not about to explain how it works, but there are about 40 motors, and 500 feet of tubing that allow it to make hard scoop ice cream on the spot from the raw ingredients - takes about 40 seconds, and it's SO much better than soft serve.

I don't know if that's true but it looks like it's profitable enough to support a small family and a mortgage. He also wanted to tell you that his Dad has had a few attempted robberies but because he is in a truck he was able to fight off the robbers.

Asked by memorex1 - Mon Oct 5 09:30:51 2009 - - -2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. It's all location, location, location. You're going to be up against some big competition from established vending companies that have sometimes hundreds of machines in tons of locations. I would start small. Find a great location that doesn't already have a machine. A busy break room at a smaller company or business is one of the best places to start. Next you'll need a machine...the combo drink/snack machines are a great place to start. Also, bulk machines...such as candy/nuts/mints that you pay a quarter for a handful. Keep in mind that you don't want to have your machine somewhere it could get vandalized or broken into.

A. I've found for the most part that gyms aren't a very good location for vending. We've had Powerade and Vitamin Water in a few local mid size gyms (about half the size of a Gold's Gym) and the best machines do maybe $60 in a week, some have done less than $20 in a week. (That's $1 for 20oz Powerade and $1.50 for 20oz Vitamin Water) These machines really have trouble selling the product before it goes out of date. We do have a machine at a Lady Fitness that sells over $120 of Dasani a week (5 Cases) despite the fact that the machine is right in front of a water fountain. I'm guessing that the customers buy the Dasani and reuse the bottles at the fountain? Either way, you'll find that gyms are really hit or miss.

A. Usually there are only a few healthy snacks to choose from when buying from a vending machine. Out of what you listed the healthiest would probably be the chex mix or the cereal if it doesn't have tons of sugar in it. If they have granola bars that might be a good option too especially the Nature Valley brand. Also, check and see if they have any of the 100 calorie packs in the vending machine, I have seen more of those going in vending machines lately which is a good way to watch your calorie intake. But I'd suggest just bring a healthy snack from home. It would be cheaper than buying from a vending machine anyways.

A. Dont you have a meal plan at your school? Thats what I have, I usually eat at the cafe. Or sometimes I will buy stuff like milk and cereal and pop tarts or something like that to eat in the morning so i dont starve. But if u dont reside at ur college u should bring stuff with you to eat, its kinda hard to eat healthly from a vending machine, but if u were to buy something from it I would get some pretzels or a muffin or something like that. I suggest u stay away from sodas and get juice or water.
