Almost every household has one: a jar, a coffee can or a drawer slowly filling with coins. Turning that weight into spendable cash is a machine’s job — but not every location has the machine, and driving across the county with twenty pounds of change to find that out is a wasted Saturday.
So here is the exact picture at David’s Money Centers of Rockland, as published on our services page:
Where coin counting is available
- Nanuet — coin counting available.
- Spring Valley — coin counting available.
- West Haverstraw — coin counting available.
- Nyack — no coin-to-cash machine at this location. If coins are your errand, choose one of the other three branches.
Before you haul the jar in
A few minutes of preparation makes the visit smoother. Fish out anything that is not a coin — paper clips, buttons, screws and foreign coins are the usual stowaways, and machines do not like them. If your coins are already rolled, ask the branch whether they prefer them rolled or loose for the machine; policies differ, and a quick call settles it. And ask how the count is paid out and whether any fee applies to the service, so the total in hand is what you expected.
While you are there
A coin run is a good moment to clear the rest of the money errands in one stop: the same locations offer check cashing, money orders, bill payment and prepaid cards. If the jar turned into a serious amount of cash, a money order or a prepaid card can be a safer way to carry it than a thick envelope — the counter staff can walk through the options and their costs before you choose.
How much is the jar worth? Honest answer: nobody knows until it is counted
Weight is a poor guide, because a jar heavy with pennies is worth a fraction of the same jar in quarters. That is the practical case for a counting machine over a guess or a long evening with paper rolls: the count is exact, and you leave knowing the number is right. If you are counting toward something specific — a bill, a deposit — bring the coins first and plan the rest of the errand around the counted total, not the estimate.
Closest coin locations: Nanuet on Route 59, Spring Valley on West Route 59, and West Haverstraw on Route 9W. Call ahead if you are bringing an unusually large amount, and let the branch be ready for you.
Branch addresses and hours for the three coin counting locations are on the locations page.
