The Complete Convention Logistics Lifecycle

From national linehaul intake to post-show breakdown and outbound carrier re-banding.

1. Advance Intake & Damage Audit

Exhibit crates arrive at our Vivion Road warehouse 1–4 weeks prior to the event. We photograph exterior crates, test display lights, and verify piece counts.

2. Marshaling Yard Shuttle

On your designated move-in target date, our air-ride trucks deliver directly to the venue marshaling yard and spot the freight at your booth.

3. Display Setup & Empty Crate Holding

Uniformed W-2 technicians assemble backdrops, run cable wiring, level display vitrines, and store empty transit crates off-site.

4. Strike, Pack & Outbound Carrier Dispatch

At show closing, we strike the booth, repack components in custom foam nests, re-band crates, and hand off to your designated LTL linehaul carrier.
