Trade Show Shipping Terminology
By Andy Keeler
In order to ensure that your booth arrives on time and at the right place, it is important that you are familiar with the shipping terminology that is commonly used in the portable trade show display industry. The following trade show shipping terms are not listed in any particular order:
Shipping Case - A reusable container used to transport exhibit material.
Shipping Crate - A wooden or metallic container used to transport exhibit material.
Packing List - A document provided by the shipper which gives information on the contents of the package or crate.
Shrink Wrap - A tight plastic wrap used to protect material during shipping or transportation.
Advance Shipping - Sending your exhibit material to the warehouse of your trade show's manager as opposed to shipping directly to the show.
Expedited Shipping - Any method of shipping other than the carrier's standard method.
Pallet - A flat, wooden slat which can be grabbed by a forklift. Often exhibit hardware is packed on top of a pallet for ease of transportation.
Most large trade shows or conventions offer at least a few options with regards to shipping. Most exhibitors will ship their display to the hotel where their booth staffers are staying, but many exhibitors elect to ship their display directly to the show to be held by the show manager.
In general, there are many options with regards to shipping your trade show booth. Whatever you decide to do, make sure you plan well in advance to avoid the rush before the show.
