<p>When finding a place to acquire a unit, tools such as the <a href="https://findaredbox.kbots.tech/">Redbox Database</a> where users can reports statuses of Redboxes, the <a href="https://findaredbox.kbots.tech/map.html">Redbox Database Map</a> or alternatively Google Maps can prove to be useful tools in the field. After you have found a suitable location, make sure to verify the unit is still in the listed location, either by physically evaluating the store, looking on google maps, or by contacting the store.</p>
|
||||
<p>After you have found a suitable location, contact the store, and attempt to gain permission to remove the unit. Ensure to <i><strong>never </strong></i>impersonate a Redbox employee, technician, or worker. It is always best to be honest, and explain the situation to someone like the general manager at a store, and see if they are comfortable with removal of the unit. A popular line with higher success is saying you are an independent tech recycler and that you want to remove their Redbox at no cost to them. If they aren't, try your luck at a different location. It is illegal to remove these units without permission. It is always recommended to get a contract signed to prove you were authorized to remove the kiosk, A good starting contract is available in the Redbox Tinkering Discord server <a href="https://discord.com/channels/1292310422749319209/1292310423366012990/1302373690498875462">here</a>, made by Redcodi.</p>

|

<p>Ensure any tools you're using can at least support 800 pounds before moving anything - the more, the better. High-rated dollies may be easier to move a machine with as many have additional sets of wheels you can deploy to roll heavy loads on. </p>
