Fortunately most bulk candy machines do not have to be serviced every week, I always had extra machines. I would fill them ahead of times so all I had to do is walk in change it out the candy and move onto the next account. Even if you have to count the money and give the account there percentage it is still a lot quicker if all you have to do is swap out the candy. The amount of machines you can service is going to depend on how you build your route. I had to take into consideration the area where I had to park and how difficult it was to get to each account. Part of my route was near shopping malls and easy to service others I had to park far away so on those weeks I could not service as many. Keep in mind too that some machines may need service which can slow you down. Restaurants may have to be serviced at different times as well as not to be in there way during there busy times. I had restaurants that I could not service between 7-10 am and 11-2:30 pm those I had to fit in with my route so I was not running in all directions to service my accounts. If you have to run in 50 different directions it will cost you a fortune in gas. It will depend on how you set up your account and the type of accounts you get as to how many you can service in a week.
