I'm not surprised. To have a random drop box means you need to make sure it is at least as secure as an ATM - maybe more so. After all, businesses are losing their deposits, sometimes more than one if they only get it weekly. If it gets stolen, then what? Take the businesses' word for the deposit and give it to them or let the police handle it? For a small business, that could be catastrophic. On top of that, the boxes will need collected at some point, which means an armored car trip out to some small country town. By the time you are dealing with the theft thing and you are having an armored car daily or weekly anyway, it might be a little easier to just send the armored car to the businesses and let them take care of the security the other part of the day. As a bonus, some of the regional or national chains already have such systems in place in some stores (gas stations, pharmacies, fast food, and so on) so they will be pretty prepared already. The rest could have a drop safe installed on-site, probably renting it from the bank.
