Move-in:
If your freight/materials are arriving to show-site via a commercial carrier or company vehicle (not personal vehicles): all drivers must report to the Marshalling Yard first during the specified move in time for your booth. They will then be directed to the convention center for off-loading. Any carriers that show up directly to the convention center will be re-directed to the Marshalling Yard to be assigned a loading time & dock. All drivers must have certified heavy and empty weights when they report to the Marshalling Yard. If not, this will most likely cause missed targeted move-in as they will be sent to get the weights. That will result in off-target costs.
If you are bringing your freight/materials using a privately owned vehicle (POV – non-commercial vehicle): You may proceed directly to the convention center docks during your specified move-in time.
Will Union Labor be required to move-in/set up my booth? Please review the Convention Center Labor Jurisdictions (coming soon) so that you know what to expect during setup.
Move-Out Procedure:
Exhibitors may begin dismantling their booth immediately after show end, 3:00pm Thursday (no earlier).
- Freeman will begin delivering empty boxes/crates, based on booth size (see below) about 2~ hours after end of show, once aisle carpets have been pulled up.
- Because of this timeframe, exhibitors with larger (400+ sq ft) booths are free to leave after show end and come back to the convention center later Thursday evening to finish dismantling.
- All exhibitors must stop dismantling by 11:59pm on Thursday.
