Title: Transporting Slot machines Post by: WILDCHERRY21 on March 02, 2013, 11:30:46 AM I'm thinking about picking up a couple slot machines a good distance away.. I'm wondering if there is anything wrong transporting them Laying down on their back rather than upright. One of them is a I game with LCD. May be a lame question but curious. Any thoughts? Thanks

I usually remove hoppers and lay them on their back with no problems. Bob Title: Re: Transporting Slot machines Post by: WILDCHERRY21 on March 02, 2013, 11:55:30 AM Thats great news Bob :) Thanks for the reply.

I would recommed you keep them covered. I know when I picked them up I was surprised how big they actaully are. I was glad the tonneau cover for the truck just fit over them.

Title: Re: Transporting Slot machines Post by: Buzz on March 02, 2013, 02:27:40 PM Year or so ago I did some trading with one of our members and he left here with (3) S 2000 in one of those little bitty shoe box SUV's. He just removed the top box's and loaded them upright.
If I was going to move a I Game or Game King on it's back I would remove the monitor from the machine. Title: Re: Transporting Slot machines Post by: cowboygames on March 02, 2013, 02:39:06 PM That's the same way I fit 3 in the bed of my pickup Buzz. Works well, especially where top boxes are so easy to remove :89-
Title: Re: Transporting Slot machines Post by: Buzz on March 02, 2013, 02:52:48 PM I do it the easy way, (10) will fit in my pickup and (26) on the car trailer. Or (126) in a 53 foot trailer, without double stacking.
