8 Queries to Ask Before You Buy a Combination Vending Machine

Here, the TCN Vending team answers eight most frequently asked questions, focusing on combination vending machines:

Question #5: Does your machine require special electrical access?

Yes, TCN Vending advises clients to designate an outlet for our vending machines. Remember that these are not small machines, so don’t expect to plug them into any available outlet and avoid hazards. An extension cord, for example, could be used to power a vending machine. Yet, this can create a fire danger.

Our machines generally require a standard 240v power source. And we expect our clients to follow this rule to avoid danger in the area. If the electric requirement is not met, we strongly advise our operators to postpone the machine placing equipment.

Question #6: Do you sell products in addition to the machine?

YES! TCN Vending Australia is not only a supplier of combination vending machines but also a reputable stockist of an extensive range of snacks, treats, and beverages.

Our team works with the world’s leading and known brands to ensure that our products meet the highest Australian food quality and safety standards. We formed this product-based strategic alliance to guarantee that you get the best of the best.

Question #7: Do I need a business license to use your machine?

Yes, a business licence is required to ensure the company follows state or local vending machine regulations. However, each state may have its own set of licences and permits, and it is best to carefully ask authorities for the appropriate certificate to operate your business.

The following are some examples of basic vending machine state requirements:

  • Tax and Corporate Registration;
  • Certificate of Occupancy;
  • List of the Number of Your Combination Vending Machines;
  • List of Foods and Drinks to be Dispensed; and
  • Application Tax Paid.

Business paperwork can be stressful. Therefore, familiarising yourself and asking the right people or the process can help you feel at ease with the next step.
