Collecting rent long distance

[Tyler Eastman]

I currently have one rental property and hoping to expand to others. 

I live in a smaller town where the market is not the greatest, therefore, I invested in a nearby town that is about 45 minutes away. If everything goes well with my first property, I am hoping to expand in that market. I currently manage my own property. 

My question is, what is the best and most efficient way to collect rent without making the drive down there to physically pick it up?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
