Get your break room ready for holiday traffic with proactive maintenance. AVS helps offices prep coffee, vending, and micro-market equipment.

Break Room Maintenance Checklist Before the Holiday Rush
The holiday season brings higher foot traffic, heavier coffee demand, and increased vending usage — making proactive break room maintenance essential. A structured checklist helps ensure every machine, market, and hydration station stays efficient during the busiest time of the year.
Key Maintenance Tasks to Prioritize
Clean & Sanitize Equipment
Clear residue, wipe down touchpoints, and clean internal components to ensure freshness and performance.
Check Sensors & Machine Functionality
Inspect product sensors, brewing systems, refrigeration, and payment terminals to prevent unexpected breakdowns.
Update Software & Connectivity
Connectivity issues can lead to downtime. Update firmware, test payment systems, and verify network stability.
Stock Spare Parts & Supplies
Have essentials on hand — filters, nozzles, gaskets, machine cleaner, and key vending components — to fix issues fast.
Schedule Staff & Routes Strategically
Prepare for increased demand by scheduling techs and service routes ahead of time, especially the week before holiday closures.

Preventive Planning = Seamless Holiday Operations
With more employees relying on office snacks, hydration, and coffee platforms during long workdays and holiday deadlines, reliable equipment is key. A proactive checklist protects uptime, increases satisfaction, and helps offices avoid costly disruptions.
