Important Information

Certified weight tickets are required for all shipments. When shipping a mixed load, separate weight tickets are required to distinguish between skidded machinery and exhibit materials. Mixed load shipments without separate weight ticket do not qualify for the skidded machinery rates and will be invoiced at the regular material handling rate. Adjustments to invoices will not be made. Drivers with inbound shipments must check in at the GES warehouse or exhibit site by 2:00 PM to be guaranteed same day unloading.

Machinery Handling Rates

  • Due to the extensive weight demands of this show a special rate has been established. Use the machinery sliding scale only for your SKIDDED MACHINERY shipment.
  • All other freight must use the standard Material Handling rates as listed on Shipping/Material Handling Services.
  • When calculating freight charges, machinery cannot be included with regular freight, i.e. cartons, fiber cases, and crated exhibits.
  • Shipments of mixed machinery and/or display will be charged at the display rate unless separate weight breakdowns are provided and goods are separated on truck.
  • Skidded machinery is machinery on a skid or a machine on its own skid which can be picked and lifted by a GES forklift with no rigging equipment required.
  • Machinery Rates are discounted rates and no other discounts apply.
