The deadline to order for this Show has already expired

Clean Floor Policy

In order to maintain a smooth and efficient move in schedule, GES will institute a Clean Floor Program. All exhibitors are required to adhere to the deadline dates/time outlined in the exhibitor service manual. Failure to adhere to this policy will result in a financial penalty.  GES will have crews working overnight removing crates that have been marked with an empty sticker. We do ask that all companies tag their empty containers prior to leaving for the day. In particular, companies who have been granted early move in, it is imperative that you work to get your crates emptied and tagged so that GES can continue to have access to the aisles for the continuation of exhibit hall installation.  Empty Labels may be obtained from the GES Service Center or from a GES Exhibitor Service Executive.

Empty Crate Penalty:
Failure to have your materials labeled and ready for removal by the time listed in the Targeted Schedule will result in financial penalty. The penalty assessed will be as follows:

  • 1 - 10 containers $483.00 for every half hour that your empties are not labeled and ready for removal
  • 11 - 20 containers $674.00 for every half hour that your empties are not labeled and ready for removal
  • 20 + containers: $813.00 for every empty that is not labeled and ready for removal

  • You will be advised by GES management with a 1-hour warning. After that, a work ticket will be generated, and the billing will begin.

Thank you in advance for your understanding and support of this process.
