I looked for info on this, but couldn't find it. Please point me if it has been answered.
We are a small brewery that has about 15 local accounts. We currently do not do keg deposits, but we plan to do them as we are getting into more bars.
I plan to put a keg deposit on every invoice, then the driver will mark it out if a keg is returned and only charge for the new beer. Is this standard procedure? The part about keg deposits I don't understand is if I go to a bar that has not placed an order, but they have an empty keg to pick up, how do you track the deposit? Do drivers write checks to the bar when there isn't a trade? Does the bar trust that you will remember that they gave you back a keg with a deposit so when they order another keg you will not charge them a deposit? What is the standard procedure for this? How does it all work?
Thanks in advance.
