Plastic Vending Machine Cups

Plastic cups for compatible hot drink vending machines

Plastic vending machine cups are a straightforward disposable option for sites serving coffee, tea, hot chocolate or vending soup through a machine. This range focuses on 73mm rim plastic vending cups, including 9oz tall cups in boxes of 2000. They are designed for use with compatible cup-drop systems, making them a sensible choice for busy staff areas and managed vending machines where reusable mugs are not always practical.

The tall 9oz format gives customers a slightly larger hot drink than a smaller squat vending cup. It works well where a machine is set up for this cup shape and diameter, whether drinks are available during breaks, in a reception area or from an unattended self-serve machine.

Check cup diameter and machine setup before ordering

A vending machine is usually configured for a particular cup diameter. The 73mm rim size matters because a cup that is too wide, too narrow or shaped differently may not dispense as intended. Before placing an order, check your current cup size alongside the machine settings, cup turret and cup-drop mechanism.

• Confirm that your machine accepts a 73mm rim cup.
• Compare the height and profile of your existing cups if you are changing format or material.
• For sites with more than one machine, check whether every machine uses the same cup size before buying larger quantities.
• Keep the correct format available to help avoid cup jams, mis-drops and machine faults.

Built for regular workplace and vending refills

A box of 2000 cups can reduce the need for frequent reordering where hot drinks are served throughout the day. It is a convenient format for vending operators maintaining refill routes, as well as facilities teams storing supplies in a stockroom, cleaner’s cupboard or dedicated vending area.

For offices, these cups can keep staff kitchens, break rooms and shared drink machines ready for use. In factories, warehouses and industrial sites, the larger pack size is well matched to shift breaks and periods of heavier demand. They can also be used in canteens, leisure venues, trade counters, waiting rooms and receptions where a compatible machine provides drinks without a staffed counter.

Keep your hot drink machine supplies together

When topping up a vending machine, it often makes sense to order cups alongside the ingredients and maintenance items you use most. Plastic vending cups are commonly purchased with vending coffee, vending hot chocolate, vending milk powder, vending sugar, vending tea, vending soup and machine cleaning products. Keeping these supplies together helps your hot drink service stay prepared for daily use.
