Technology is a wonderful thing. It makes our lives better in ways that were once unimaginable. Just when you thought there are no new ideas, someone, somewhere, comes up with something that makes life a little more convenient. Such is the case with vending machines.
Soda vending machines are a refreshing benefit that many business owners provide for employees and customers.

Can it support the weight of a machine? And, is there a proper electrical outlet nearby? As a provider of soda vending services, we know these things can make or break getting a soda machine placed. So if you're looking to have a soda machine installed at your business, consider these important points first.
There's nothing convenient about a vending machine when it gets vandalized. Especially if it's a recurring issue. What was supposed to be an added amenity for your business suddenly becomes an inconvenience. So what are you supposed to do?
Our customers who experience vandalism to their machines often ask us what can be done to prevent it from happening again. Here three measures we suggest:
1. Place the machine in a visible area.
Perhaps the best advice to stop a vending machine from being vandalized is to have the equipment placed in a high-traffic area. A place where many people (either customers or staff members) will be able to see the machine. While it's not always desirable to have a piece of vending equipment in plain view, it's a sure-fire way to keep potential vandals from damaging the machine. The more visible the machine, the less likely it is to be vandalized.
