ADDITIONAL SET-UP DETAILS
Vehicles: Should your exhibit include any vehicle or other oversized item (i.e. gondola, grooming machine) that may require special consideration getting it into the hall and to your booth space, you must contact Trade ShowsWest at least 2 weeks prior to the move-in date so that we know you are bringing a vehicle, and so that we can be sure to confirm with you the details. The item will likely need to be moved into the hall a day earlier than the published exhibitor move-in date. There are also regulations set by the city Fire Marshall which are non-negotiable, including such things as the amount of gas in a vehicle's gas tank (in Seattle the requirement in less than 1/4 tank). If such an item is brought to the exhibit hall without prior approval and does not meet the regulations, it will be turned away and not allowed to be brought into the hall later.
Banners: You must make advanced arrangements (with the decorator) to have a banner or other items hung from the ceiling of the exhibit hall and the items to be hung need to be at the hall one day prior to the published move-in date. Once all booths are set up it is much more difficult and time consuming (i.e. expensive!) to hang items from the ceiling.
Material Handling: If you have any materials that need to be shipped to the expo you may ship them to our decorators warehouse ahead of time or to the care of Ski Show at the exhibit hall for arrival on the move-in date, but be prepared to pay drayage charges. Details for shipping are available from our decorator (contact info above). Another option you may want to consider is to have items shipped to your hotel and hand carry them into the exhibit hall. While this may not be feasible depending on what is being shipped, it is the only way to guarantee that you will not be charged a material handling fee by the decorator.
