Trade Show Set-up Reports

When beginning the process of planning the installation and dismantle of your trade show exhibit booth or display, there are a number of elements that you should consider:

• Trade show move-in schedule
• Early move-in available?
• Time for assembly or install vs. hours required
• Cost using advanced warehousing / Need?
• How much of the set-up occurs at straight time? Overtime?
• When must all crates be empty / out of the exhibit hall?
• Trade show move-out schedule
• Time for disassembly vs. hours required
• Time crates supposed to be back to exhibit hall?
• How much dismantle at straight time? Overtime?
• When must bill of lading be handed-in? / Shipper checked-in?

By looking at all of these scheduling criteria for a specific trade show we can help you to plan for your trade show exhibit installation and dismantle project. With these reports we will help you integrate trade show specific installation and dismantle criteria, with past project statistics, helping you to complete this part of the process more efficiently.

Note: We recently attended a large medical show and were abhorred at what we saw during the installation and dismantle process. With a little planning, and by guiding their trade show staff better, exhibitors there would have saved thousands of dollars in overtime costs and avoided more by eliminating "wait" time. Use these reports to reduce your costs, increase your marketing ROI and improve your life!
