Shipping an Inherited Slot Machine From Arizona to New York

First steps when you inherit a slot machine

• Find the keys for the door and the cash box.
• Look for a maker's plate or serial number, because the machine's age matters under state law.
• Photograph the machine from every side before anyone moves it.
• Keep it upright and do not lay it on its back.
• Do not carry it down stairs alone, since these machines are heavier than they look.

What can go wrong in transit

The pull handle sticks out and can snap. The reel mechanism can shift out of alignment. The glass can crack, and the cabinet corners and back door can be crushed if the machine is stacked or tipped. That is why a slot machine should not travel as an ordinary parcel.

Antique slot machine laws in Arizona and New York

Arizona treats a slot machine as an antique when it is at least twenty-five years old and not used for gambling. New York allows a machine that is more than thirty years old, kept in your home and not used for gambling, and machines built before 1941 count as antiques. Laws change, so check the current rules in both states before you ship. This is not legal advice.
