Hello

I'm new in the business living in mass.
I tryied to place a machine in a dry cleaning service and the
lady told that even if she would allow me to place the machine
the store needs a permit. This happened in Medford Ma.
Any info is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
George

George,

Here is Mass you are required to purchase a license (permit) to operate a vending machine. A label, of a size and style approved by the commissioner, bearing the operator’s license number, shall be conspicuously displayed at each machine location. These permits are issued by the state and do not relieve you of any responsibility to your local town in terms of permitting. Check with your town for that.

You can read the complete rule and also download an application for this license on my forum under the Vending Regulatory Affairs section. (link below) The cost for this license is $3.00 per machine / per year.

Hope this helps!

Steve
