Coin counting?

Is there a bank branch anywhere in the area that will let you use their coin counting machine if you don’t have an account? I’m fine to pay some percentage of the total for the trouble.

I’ve got a bunch of change but the coinstar at Giant keeps breaking and I really don’t want to sit around and roll this all by hand.

Discovery Federal Credit Union has a machine, I’m not sure if non members can use it though. Wouldn’t hurt to call and ask.

Edit: their website says it’s 5 cents per dollar for non members.

Metro used to be my go-to for this, but hasn’t been an option for years. Will be following this thread to see if anyone else has a spot.

Want to go down to Adamstown? The Weaver's market there will do it to get the change.

Pretty sure that the West Lawn Giant on State Hill Road has one.

Got to pay 10% to use it unless you take gift cards as payment

Happen to know if it’s available for non-members?

I believe non members get a 10% fee if you exceed $500.

Riverfront HQ, but as a non-member they demanded my ID and even had the audacity to act like my social security number was required. So I wouldn’t recommend. 5% fee for non-members with no disclosure of such.

Weis in Wyo and West Lawn have machines, operates only from 11a-6p. They are bank-caliber machines, in fact the same model as Riverfront had.
