Ice Vending Machines
Ice House America machine and hut owners have a unique opportunity to supplement their income with low overhead and minimal time commitment. Perhaps you're close to retirement, or maybe you need extra income for a growing family. It's simple: Purchase one or more Ice Vending Units. Purchase or lease a small plot of land (or part of a busy parking lot). Arrange for electricity, water, and a phone line. There are no supplies except plastic bags and twist ties. No employees are necessary to be on-site. The Ice Vending Unit requires very little maintenance.



The packaged ice business, despite its lack of glamour, is a $2.5 billion industry. However, the industry is fairly antiquated. That 8 pound bag of ice purchased at the convenience store has traveled from regional ice plants that mass produce bags of ice and distributes them to specific territories. This method is subjected to increasing fuel and distribution costs, human error and the potential damage to the end product due to distribution and handling. The Ice House America® ice vending units solve all of these problems.



Ice House America® Ice Vending Units are patented (U.S. Patent No. 6,932,124 , 7,104,291 , and 7,426,945 ), free standing ice vending units that automatically dispense, at a press of a button, chipped ice to a customer in about 8 seconds. The ice is freshly made - on demand, with a smaller carbon footprint than the bagged ice that is trucked to stores. The Ice House America® modular building is NAMA Listed and meets all applicable building codes for each state in which it is placed. This includes withstanding 150 mile per hour winds.
