User ID: 23189531 United States01/28/2022 04:07 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What about those box storage / moving companies? Might have to work out a deal to have them transported to different places, or go with small boxes at each? If you had small boxes dropped at each, the store could load and lock the box for pick up maybe? I guess in a panic that would be my choice. |

Work with each store to manage everything smoothly. Quoting: Tangy Thanks, yes the store managers are great people I have known some for the whole 15 years. The know my kids from babies when I used to roll them in their car seats on my hand truck. The corporate is stacked with some real kiss ass people. The stories I have heard after weaving in and out of Goodwill breakrooms everyday for the past 15 years would make most people cringe. Goodwill is far gone from the old days and has become a greedy nasty entity. wolf7719 |

Yes, I have always felt like I was doing more of a service offering the employees a low price option in the vending machines because they could not leave the store on break. So now corporate is forcing the employees (who make very little) to buy snacks from Goodwill. Kind of messed up. But then again so are the customers who would buy pastry at a thrift store....eeeewwwww gross wolf7719 |

User ID: 80104368 United States01/28/2022 04:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hi, I have been member here for few years. I am reaching out this way because I have never had any social media. Never time for that BS. Here is brief info: 15 years I have had a contract with Goodwill North Georgia (61 locations), providing vending service in their breakrooms. I purchased all new equipment every time they opened a new store. Goodwill had decided right before Covid they were going to bring in Little Debbies, Utz Chips and Coke coolers, essentially cutting me out. I hung in for the past two years. I have since received legal/formal notice to remove all machines. I am in dire need of either new locations to place machines in North Georgia, or more importantly, someone with a decent size space I could pay to store some machines. I have some smaller storage units for some existing, but now I am in panic mode. All this equipment estimated in excess 150K will be placed outside by Goodwill if I do not begin moving it out. I have a handful of other good accounts but this is majority of my income gone. I just told my wife, she knows I will work ass off but she is scared. Quoting: wolf7719 I live in old house (1952) no garage. But believe me I will be placing a handful of machines in my driveway under tarps next week. If there is anyone out there in North Georgia who knows of any way to help, I would greatly appreciate it ! If anyone can help you can send me a message. Thank you all ! My friend owns a moving company with a warehouse in southern TN maybe hour from Georgia I can get you in contact with him and they’ll gladly help out |

Would that help? Quoting: Palladium Thanks, yes, the fact that it is further north is great. Considering Goodwill is all over I have machines up in Cornelia, Cartersville, Rome etc... Yes if they have space up that way I would like to check it out. wolf7719 |

Goodwill is far gone from the old days and has become a greedy nasty entity. Sounds like it. That is horrible what they did. What harm is there in keeping your machines there? Makes little sense until what you realized - all of these places have become pure evil. Besides that, the covid scam turned many offices remote only permanently now. And everything you could ever want is delivered now to anywhere you want. I always wanted to get into vending but it seems like society is pointing away from that now. |

Goodwill is far gone from the old days and has become a greedy nasty entity. I've suspected that. The people at the top make a lot of money. The price of their stuff isn't cheap anymore. My kids go thrift shopping elsewhere. |

I always wanted to get into vending but it seems like society is pointing away from that now. Yes, they are greedy. They have sooooo much space in the back of the stores, my machines could stay there months without being a problem which would allow me some time to either sell them or place them someplace else. Essentially what they are doing is taking my entire equity/assets in business and making it worthless. MY FAULT for putting so many eggs in one basket when securing that contract. I have other great ones like trucking companies, logistics, etc.... but myself and my other route guy who I let go during covid were in Goodwills everyday. Never one complaint on us. Oh well live and learn. wolf7719 |
