JEREMYTINA Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 7 and 8 pin lock pick. And everything else mentioned above. lol To be serious, I use a big canvas tote. I put in whatever items are stocked at the location, plus rags, cleaning solution, scooper, wooden spoon, spare mech, long phillips screwdriver, and open end wrench, labels, and a money bag. I keep spare parts and machines in the van, along with a large label collection, a ton of product, spare heads, and a large piece of pipe stand for anyone feeling froggy.

quotealex Posted March 12, 2011 Author Share Posted March 12, 2011 What is food safe? Maybe the new Martha Stewart spray? A disinfectant that can be used on food surfaces... Sleever bar, bull pin, spud crescent, beater and a hammer drill. I don't think all these will fit in my backpack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quotealex Posted March 12, 2011 Author Share Posted March 12, 2011 I also have in my backpack: - Pens - A paper notebook - A can of compressed gas duster. They are expensive, so I only use it when I'm changing type of candies and I don't have an extra head in my car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nepavend Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Wow this is an extensive list. A better topic title might be "What is in your car when you service?" Here is what I pack in on a service run: 1. Product - Gum/Toys/Sticky/Balls/Candy/etc. 2. Toolbox - has tools, locks, misc stuff 3. Two three-drawer boxes from Lowe's for displays, business cards, decals 4. Box of spare mechs 5. Coin bags/scale 6. Route Sheets 7. Few bottles of water 8. Extra machine (room permitting) 9. Flat cardboard - in case I pull multiple machines 10. Box of spare parts 11. Service bag w/ cleaner, rags, keys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
