Precautions for Exhibiting in the United States

The knowledge that must be known for the first US exhibition!

There are time limits for logistics at American exhibitions. Your schedule must be accurate, otherwise sample exhibits, exhibition materials, and display materials may never reach your booth. When traveling to and from exhibitions in the United States, goods may be damaged, lost in transit, or transported to the wrong location. Here are some packaging and logistics tips for US exhibitions that can help save time and money while ensuring the smooth progress of the US exhibition.

1. Be careful with packaging: Do not transport items that are easy to carry or carry around. The heavier your booth materials, the higher their transportation costs. Freight carriers do not transport loose items, so all of your materials should be boxed or boxed, preferably fixed on pallets for easy transportation. The exhibition supply packaging ensures that these materials are placed in as few Flat noodles or boxes as possible. The more processing you need, the higher your shipping costs will be. Insert the foam pad and foam package into the blank space to help avoid movement during transportation. In addition, make sure to stack your boxes or Flat noodles by weight, with the heaviest items on the bottom and the lighter items on the top. Electronic products, specialized equipment, fragile items, display items, and backgrounds should be separately packaged and labeled as fragile.

2. It is crucial to read your exhibitor manual: American exhibitions have different rules and regulations for transportation. Some people prefer you to transport to the warehouse, while others allow you to transport directly to their site. Allow enough time for your goods to arrive and pay attention to the specified transportation date and time. Samples should always use guaranteed or expedited transportation services. Your goods are considered a top priority while ensuring transportation.

3. Attention to labeling: US exhibitions and conventions outline detailed labeling requirements, including pick-up and drop off locations. Follow the instructions and indicate the exhibitor's name, booth number, exhibition name, contractor name, street address, estimated arrival time and date on all shipping labels.
