What Does it Cost to Rent a Margarita Machine?
Margarita machines are similar to slushy machines seen at convenience stores. While a home margarita machine will require ice, a rented margarita machine freezes the mix and dispenses it like a slushy. They are available for about $100 for a four-hour rental, in 2010. Does this Spark an idea?

Features
-
Consider all aspects of the rental before deciding on a vendor. Some machines come with drink mixes, cups, straws and margarita salt in the rental, but others require separate purchases. Some include delivery, others require pickup. Ask if the company has a two-bowl or one-bowl machine. Two bowls allow for two different flavors. Ask about deposits and if the rental is for a day or for a shorter period.

Considerations
-
Margarita machine vendors require the customer to provide any alcohol, which raises the total cost. If the machine must be hauled up or down stairs or steep inclines, ask if that delivery is included with the rental. It's often extra. It's usually necessary to buy all mixes and request refunds for unused products. If you add alcohol, consider monitoring the machine.
