Frequently Asked Questions

A: The benefit of purchasing a vending machine in used versus new condition is more money in your pocket! Vending machines in new condition cost approximately three times more than a used vending machine from K & K Vending and Distributing, Inc. Purchasing used machines from K & K Vending and Distributing, Inc. is never a gamble because we offer the same 6 MONTH WARRANTY on all of our used equipment that most manufacturers offer on new equipment. We confidently stand behind our warranty because we sell quality products that are user-friendly and parts are readily available so you have nothing to lose and more profits to gain.

A: Refurbished vending machines are machines that have been gently used and have been cleaned and tested thoroughly, new paint inside and outside, new sign front, and new vinyl where applicable. Refurbished vending machines are sold at a higher price due to the amount of labor and materials involved to make these aesthetic improvements. Non-refurbished vending machines are also machines that have been gently used and have been cleaned and tested thoroughly. They may or may not have minor cosmetic blemishes. These blemishes are not considered damage, they consist of minor scratches or dimples in the surface of the machine. As a result, we are able to offer these machines at a great price so you can maximize your profitability. Whichever you choose, refurbished or non-refurbished vending machines, you can rest assured that K & K Vending and Distributing, Inc. stands behind our equipment with our 6 MONTH WARRANTY.

A: A single price vending machine can be set at one price only. This means that each of the selections in the machine must be the same price. A multi-price vending machine has the capability to have each selection set at the same or a different price, allowing greater flexibility in the products vended.

A: Absolutely. Vending machines weigh approximately 400-900 lbs empty. Unless you have the correct moving equipment and experience, it is not recommended to attempt to move a machine to avoid injury or possible death. It is worth every penny to have the experts do all the heavy lifting and delivering.

A: The average soda vending machine costs approximately $12 to $16 per month in electricity to run. Think of it as a refrigerator that rarely gets opened. Ambient snack vending machines cost even less because they do not have a cooling unit, so they draw much less electricity.
