Transporting Soda Cans

What do you suggest I use to transport 12 oz. cans when I don't need a case at a time?

Placed my first two machines today!

19 December 2007 - 05:00 PM

I placed my first two machines at a local shoe store today. :) Here is my story...

I walked into the store this morning and asked to speak to the manager. I introduced myself and told her that I own a small vending company and that I work with the National Children's Cancer Society. She asked me if I worked with the March of Dimes. I told her no but, I would find out if they had a vending program. I then asked when I could stop by again. She told me Friday.

I researched the March of Dimes and determined that the March of Dimes does not have a vending program. Since I was driving by the store again I put two single head gumball machines in my truck because I was planning to place a gumball machine at the shoe store and my local bank.

I stopped by this afternoon and asked to speak to the same manager again. I informed her that the March of Dimes does not have a vending program but, I would be willing to donate 25% of my monthly sales to the March of Dimes. The manager agreed so she and I signed the placement agreement. Afterwards, I placed a gumball machine on each side of the front door. The manager then asked if I could put M&M's in one of the machines. I told her that I would stop by later this week to put M&M's in one of machines.

I will stop by tomorrow or the next day to replace one my gumball machines with one filled with M&M's. I placed Amerivend Apollo17 single-head machines at this location.

Does anyone know anything about Ashland gumball machines? How do they compare to other bulk vending machines. See photo.

I have an opportunity to purchase five, brand new, Vendstar 3000 machines with stands, locks and keys. Is this a good deal?

Help Me Identify this Machine

I just bought this machine today at a garage sale for $30. Can anyone tell me who makes this machine? It says Astro on the chute cover. Where can I buy a replacement chute cover because this machine is missing one?
