Moving into any exposition can be tricky. There are a lot of moving parts and things to remember. Below is key information you need to know for moving into IWCE.

When Can I Move-In

When you can move in and set up your booth depends on how you ship your booth materials to show site. The shipping options are:

Advance Shipping:

• Ship your booth materials (non-perishable items only) in advance to the GES Advance Warehouse (arrival deadlines apply). The Warehouse address can be found under the Print Shipping Labels tab under the Shipping, Drayage, Material Handling and Access Storage tab. This allows you to confirm your freight has arrived well before move-in starts. This is a targeted move-in show, your booth materials will arrive on your scheduled inbound target date and time. You will be able to set up your booth at that time. You can find your target move-in time under the Move-In/Move-Out Information and Target Floorplan tab by selecting the Target Maps button.
• Print Advance Shipping labels under the Generate Address Labels at the bottom of the ESK home page. They can also be found under the Shipping, Drayage, Material Handling and Access Storage tab by clicking on Print Shipping Labels. Remove all old labels from your crates and cartons.
• Material Handling charges will apply and can be estimated under the Shipping, Drayage, Material Handling and Access Storage tab under Shipping and Material Handling/Drayage Services.
• Address for advance shipping: GES 7000 Lindell Road Las Vegas, NV 89012

Direct Shipping:

• Ship your booth materials via a freight carrier directly to show site. This is a targeted Move-In show, your scheduled carrier arrival time can be found under the Move-In/Move-Out information and Target Floorplan tab. Note--Your carrier will have to arrive at the Marshaling Yard at the date and timeframe listed on the target floorplan. Failure to do so could result in refused freight and additional material handling charges.
• Your carrier will need to check into the marshalling yard at your scheduled inbound target date and time. Once checked-in the driver will be assigned a time and/or dock number and will proceed to the dock at that time to unload the freight. Assignments are on a first come, first serve basis. The freight will be in your booth by the Move-In hours for booth set up.
• Print Advance Shipping labels under the Generate Address Labels at the bottom of ESK home page. They can also be found under the Shipping, Drayage, Material Handling and Access Storage tab by clicking on Print Shipping Labels. Remove all old labels from your crates and cartons.
• Material Handling charges will apply and can be estimated under the Shipping, Drayage, Material Handling and Access Storage tab under Material Handling/Drayage.

Privately Owned Vehicles (POV):

• Cartload Service information is available for exhibitors in POVs driving their booth materials to the show under the Shipping, Drayage, Material Handling and Access Storage tab under Cartload Service tab (restrictions apply).
• Privately Owned Vehicles have to report to the POV lot or marshalling yard on their scheduled targeted freight time. They will then be sent to the convention center loading dock for unloading. Cargo vans and moving trucks are considered freight and do not qualify as a POV. The POV lot address and the address to the marshalling yard can be found under the Shipping Addresses tab at the bottom of the home page.

• Exhibitors may hand carry their merchandise from a privately owned vehicle. Acceptable vehicles include passenger automobile, minivan, sport utility vehicle, pick-up truck and full-size van.
• Trailers of any kind, box trucks or vehicles larger than a full-size van or pick-up truck will be permitted in areas predetermined by the Las Vegas Convention Center.
• Parking on a red curb or in traffic lanes is prohibited.
• The use of hand carts & dollies is not permitted.
