<h1>Locating a Redbox</h1>
<p>When finding a place to acquire a unit, tools such as 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 manager at a store, and see if they are comfortable with removal of the unit. If they aren't, try your luck at a different location. It is a illegal to remove these units without permission.</p>

<h1>Weight</h1>
<p><strong>The actual weight of these devices has not been determined as of yet.</strong>&nbsp;Individuals have reported that these kiosks can weigh as much as 850 pounds, reducing to around 600 pounds without discs. Some employees have claimed the unit is closer to 350 pounds when empty.&nbsp;</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.&nbsp;</p>
