I'm looking to get my feet wet with placing a single machine on location. Nothing fancy, nothing on which I'm going to get rich, might make $20 every year. Maybe.

But, I need to do it right. With the whole written contract thing.

I searched for an example one, but didn't find what I was looking for.

Anyone have one that I can customize?
 
In many locations you need a license and insurance, too. If you stand to make 20 bucks a year, set fire to the cabinet now and save yourself the hassle.
 
Yeah, a tax stamp is usually more than $20 for the year.. So there goes that.. Sometimes locations will cover the game for insurance, but that needs to be in the contract. Just found this:


Insurance on equipment and general liability is very complicated. As with most vending routes you operate on a revenue share basis. The equipment is at their location, under their control and operates under a lease agreement. There are a few things you can do to "HELP" curb the cost of vandalism and of accidental injuries (or drunk injuries).

1. Be named on the location owner/proprietor's insurance as an additional insured. This helps cover you on general liability issues (ie. the examples from before).

2. TRY and make sure that the location has Personal Property of Others insurance. This is usually covered on their policy up to a certain amount of money. This will cover your equipment (or part of it) should it be destroyed, stolen, damaged or whatever. Although, this requires the owner to make a claim, and lets be honest, some owners are just plain assholes.

3. You can add an umbrella policy to your own insurance and should be able to list certain locations that may have a lot of your equipment.

Insurance is COMPLICATED. Try and find an independent agent that has worked with others in your industry or someone that may understand what exactly you do.... Don't expect the search to be easy.

In other words, it's not worth his time

Your net gain will probably be a dead machine and some debt. Sorry to say.
 
Luckily, I live in Vermont, where those stamps are no longer required.

The $20 a year was an exaggeration. What I mean is I don't plan on getting rich at a tattoo parlour.
