Finally, please feel free to contact Global Experience Specialists, Inc. (GES), at any time for further information or clarification on any GES services.
  1. Shipping via Outside Carrier An outside carrier (GES Logistics, Common Carrier, Truck Load Services, Overnight Carrier) is any carrier that you contract to move your freight. At your direction these carriers have the ability of delivering Advance to the warehouse or Direct to the Indiana Convention Center, Halls A-E. Labels for both locations are provided for you in the ESM. Please note times and applicable dates for delivery. Whether delivering Advance to the warehouse or Direct to show site, Material Handling charges will apply.

  2. Shipping via Company vehicle or with your personal vehicle Both Advance and Direct to show site are options if you want to deliver goods with your own vehicle for the show. For direct shipments, the driver will check in at the facility and be dispatched to dock in the order they arrive. Material Handling charges will apply.

  3. Personal Vehicle Cartload Service If you want to deliver your own product in your personal vehicle but do not want to carry it to your booth; you can use GES Cartload Service. For this service, the driver will check in at loading dock. Cartload Service charges will apply.

  4. Hand Carry Items that an exhibitor is allowed to carry unaided into a convention facility without being charged. With this option exhibitors can move materials that can be carried by hand by booth staff. Park in the convention center parking lot and load into the exhibit hall. Exhibitors can also hand carry their goods from their hotel or a taxi cab into the convention center.
