Most exhibit houses offer complete turnkey services, where they manage not only storage and shipments but many facets of the trade show services. Turnkey services, when put in the hands of exhibit professionals, can pay for itself through lower freight costs, early bird specials, and by preventing ‘surprises’ on the show floor.
Find a trade show booth designer to help you navigate the complexities of creating an effective exhibit. Trade show booth designers are creative professionals who specialize in designing the booths that companies use at trade shows.
When you purchased your custom or modular trade show exhibit, you probably didn’t give much consideration to shipping or the wood crate(s). After all, it’s just a wood crate, right? What could go wrong during long interstate shipments, casual forklift handling, and untrained show labor to your very expensive and stunning beautiful trade show exhibit?
Trade show logistics involves efficiently moving an exhibit and equipment to a show site, managing setup and utilities, and finally getting everything back to headquarters in one piece after the event.
