What exhibition logistics companies do

Trade fair forwarders collect your stand and exhibits, ship them to the venue, deal with customs (often under a temporary import such as an ATA Carnet), deliver to the stand at a booked time, store the empty crates during the show and ship everything back or on to the next event. Many shows appoint an official forwarder who handles deliveries inside the venue.

Plan ahead

Check the organiser's shipping deadlines and the official forwarder for the show.
Pack exhibits so they can be handled and repacked on the stand.
Ask for a door-to-stand quote that includes on-site handling and empty storage.
