          SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

          During exhibitor move-in and exhibitor move-out, all Exhibitors are required to adhere to the following safety requirements:

          • Watch your step at all times.
          • Be aware of your immediate surroundings and avoid distractions from cell phones or other electronic devices.
          • Be aware of forklifts, motorized carts, and scooters being used in the area.
          • Watch for falling objects as work may be performed overhead.
          • Abide by all caution and warning signs posted in this area, including those requiring hard hats in designated areas.
          • Report any safety hazards, injuries, or property damage immediately.
          • Follow all applicable laws, safety instructions, guidelines, or standards issued by the Venue, by Event Management, or by the Event Contractor.

          Anyone on-site during exhibitor move-in or exhibitor move-out freely and voluntarily assumes all inherent risks of being in an active work area, including, but not limited to, risks of loss, property damage, injury or damage to persons, and/or death.

          No one under the age of eighteen (18) is permitted on-site during exhibitor move-in or exhibitor move-out for any reason or purpose. 

          NOTICE TO EXHIBITORS REGARDING NON-OFFICIAL CONTRACTORS

          The companies listed above have been appointed as the only Official Contractors providing the stated services for this event. Show Management carefully considers the selection of Official Contractors based on quality of service, variety of products, price, and reputation. Since these contractors frequently work on more than one show with us, they value the business of our customers and provide quality products and services. Some companies may misrepresent themselves as being an official contractor so PLEASE be sure to check the list in the exhibitor manual or give us a call.

          Some things to watch for if you are considering the services of a non-official contractor are hidden charges for material handling, labor, and shipping that you might not pay otherwise (for example on carpet rental), control over delivery time, availability during move-in and leverage if something goes wrong.

          Also be advised that non-official contractors will need to abide by the Exhibitor Appointed Contractor procedures, provide insurance certificates, etc. in order to gain access to the Show Floor.
