Free placement program
Free Vending Machine Placement for Victorian Workplaces
No lease. No rental. No insurance or service fees. We supply the machine, deliver and install it, keep it stocked and repair it — your team only pays for what they buy. That's how $0 COST hire works: machine sales pay for the placement and the vending service.
The short answer
Free vending machine placement means Free Vending Machines Melbourne matches your site with a local vending machine owner-operator who supplies, installs, stocks and services the machine at no cost to your business. You provide roughly one square metre of floor space and a 240V power outlet. Melbourne workplaces with about 30+ staff on site or 50+ daily visitors typically qualify, and the machine is removed free of charge if the site doesn't suit either party — a placed machine does need to make sales to stay.

Free placement questions
Is the vending machine really free?
Yes. There is no purchase price, lease, rental or service charge. We fund the machine through product sales, so your business pays nothing for placement, delivery, installation, restocking or repairs.
What does my business need to provide?
Around one square metre of accessible floor space, a standard 240V power outlet within reach, and clear access for a delivery trolley on install day.
How many staff do I need to qualify?
As a guide, workplaces with 15–20 or more staff, or sites with steady daily visitor traffic, qualify for free placement. Smaller sites may still qualify if foot traffic is high or the site runs multiple shifts.
How long does installation take?
Once your site is confirmed, most installations are booked within one to two weeks. The install itself typically takes under an hour, including positioning, power-up and first stocking.
Can we choose what is stocked?
Yes. You approve the planogram before install and can change it any time — including healthy-only, low-sugar, halal-friendly or allergy-aware ranges.
What if the machine doesn't work out?
We remove it free of charge. There is no lock-in contract and no exit fee.
