Renting vending machine: This allows you to start your business with a small investment. Nevertheless, you need to concentrate on the location and products you would like to dispense in this machine. It is the prime responsibility of vending operator to monitor the performance of various machines at each location. If required, he will have to move the machine from low sales area to that place which has maximum demand. However, it is advisable to try and enhance sales in the same location before shifting the machine. Since this shifting may incur you additional costs and may even damage the vending machine if proper care is not taken.

Renting a vending machine may sometimes become very challenging. These machines have been used earlier and have been subjected to a lot of wear and tear. So, the probability of a break down is very high. The performance efficiency of these machines would definitely be low when compared to any other new machine. Another disadvantage of renting vending machines is that they do not come with the latest and updated features which customers may be looking at. Hence it is better if vending operators purchase new machines.

Even if budget is the main concern, operators can choose simple and basic models rather than complicated ones. This will not only cost less but also perform far better than a used one. Hence operators should not get carried away by short terms benefit(low cost of used machine) and forgo long term benefits(high efficiency and performance) of a new machine.
