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 20+ 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.

What we recommend for these sites

Covers closed-kitchen hours

Between lunch and dinner service, and after the bistro closes, the machine keeps patrons fed without extra rostered staff.

Sports clubs and courts

Bowls, football, netball and RSL clubs get water, electrolyte drinks and snacks courtside where the bar cannot reach.

Staff amenity back of house

Bar, kitchen and gaming staff on split shifts get a proper break option without leaving the venue.

No cost to the venue

Under $0 COST hire the operator supplies, installs, stocks and services the machine — no lease, rental, insurance or service fee for the club.

Free Coffee for your patrons & staff

A bean-to-cup coffee vending machine keeps members and staff on site for their flat white instead of walking to the café down the road. Placed at $0 COST hire, it grinds fresh beans, pours espresso, latte, cappuccino and hot chocolate on demand, runs off a standard 240V outlet and takes about half a square metre — perfect for a function foyer or staff break area.

  • • Fresh bean-to-cup grinder — no instant, no pods to buy
  • • Tap-and-go card, Apple Pay and Google Pay — no cash handling
  • • Cups, lids, stirrers and sugar restocked every service visit
  • • Cleaning cycles and servicing handled by the owner-operator
