Host an Egg ATM at your church or organization

Utah Refugee Goats

An Egg ATM is a small refrigerated egg station with a QR code. Your members and neighbours scan, pay and take fresh eggs; Utah Refugee Goats installs it, stocks it every week and looks after it.

What a host location needs

  • Weekly minimum: at least 10 dozen eggs a week (120 eggs)
  • Power: a grounded 3-prong 120-volt wall outlet (standard US outlet), on a 15-amp or larger circuit, within 6 feet of the spot, always on (not controlled by a light switch or timer). No extension cords or power strips. A dedicated circuit is best.
  • Space: indoors, on a level floor, about 30″ wide × 30″ deep × 72″ high, with 36″ clear in front for the door, in a heated/cooled room out of direct sun
  • Access: open to the public at least 10 hours a week, and a key holder who lets us restock
  • Signal: good phone signal or guest Wi-Fi so customers can pay by QR
  • Who can host: Church, Mosque, Other faith community, Community group / nonprofit, School / daycare, Business / workplace

A small egg refrigerator usually uses about 1–2 kWh of electricity a day (roughly $4–$8 a month). The host provides the power.

2. The spot

3. Power

Look at the wall outlet nearest the spot. A grounded outlet has three holes (two slots and a round hole). The amps are printed on the breaker in the electrical panel; most outlets are 15 or 20 amps.

4. Access and weekly volume

5. Host agreement

  • Tell us within 24 hours if it stops cooling, is damaged or loses power, so the eggs can be removed safely.
