Ticket Stock Storage

Proper ticket stock storage can make the difference between a smooth event and a stressful one. Keeping your stock organized helps prevent unnecessary waste, reduces the risk of damaged or contaminated tickets, and, of course, it helps avoid the all-too-familiar sight of a stack of ticket stock tumbling off the counter like a rogue slinky. Here are a few simple tips to keep your ticket stock neat, protected, and ready for event day.

Put it in a box

The simplest solutions are often the best. Make sure to leave plenty of room between your box and the printer to prevent tension. The stack in the left photo below could probably use a bit more room. Positioning stock on the floor or a shelf below the printer ensures a smooth feed.

Magazine holders are the perfect size

Turn a cardboard magazine holder on it's back for perfect fit ticket storage. You can even mount these on a wall for permanent box office setups! Check out your local dollar store for cardboard versions, or pick up a nicer plastic/wire option for a wall mount.

Build stock management right into your kiosk enclosure

If you're already custom building an enclosure for your kiosk, why not add a special spot for stock to live? Stacks measure 2" x 10", and should be placed with enough space between the printer and stack to prevent tension on the tickets as they feed into the printer.
