Significant amounts of cash can change hands daily at truck stops and travel centers, making them vulnerable to theft, fraud, and human error. To protect both assets and personnel, locations need to implement cash handling practices. One of the most effective strategies is limiting cash exposure at the point of sale. This includes setting maximum drawer limits, routinely removing excess cash through skims, and securing it in drop or smart safes that deter theft. “We have a time lock safe at the fuel desk for cash/coin drops,” said Darren Goetz, vice president of operation for Mitten Inc. “Otherwise, for safety reasons we only change out and count drawers when three or more staff are at the counter, never when there is only one or two folks there.”
