A drop safe is called by many names: depository, hopper, drop box, money safe, front loading, and top loading. These are safes designed to secure cash drops for places of business that might not otherwise have an option to deposit register payments at a bank. This type of situation requires that a business install a drop safe on their premises, in order to avoid leaving cash in their register. Distinguishing between the different types of drop safes is vital in finding the drop safe that is appropriate for your place of business.

As the name implies, a front-loading drop safe consists of a drop slot or door placed on the front of the safe. A top-loading drop safe, on the other hand, consists of a drop slot and/or a rotary hopper on the top of the safe. This type of drop safe is ideal in a situation where a safe will have nothing placed above (as this type of drop safe will cease to function in that case).

Cash-heavy business such as (to name a few): convenient stores, hotels/motels, gas stations, car washes, churches, restaurants, use drop safes on a daily basis in minimizing the amount of cash in their register(s).
