Move-Out Information
IAFC & The Expo Group would like to thank you for your business. It has been a pleasure serving you. Below are a few items to assist you during move-out and following the show.
- FRI will close promptly at 2:00 PM on Friday, July 30
- Do NOT begin packing or dismantling your booth prior to 2:00 PM.
- Do not leave any personal items, laptop computers, electronic equipment, valuables or supplies unattended in your booth space. Exhibitors are responsible for all contents within their booths.
- Any exhibitor requiring forklifts, display labor, or other special handling of exhibit material should make arrangements at the Service Center BEFORE the close of the show.
- The vehicles/apparatus will leave first, then The Expo Group will remove the aisle carpet. After that the freight doors will then open for empty containers to be returned.
- Any exhibitors with apparatus that require empty storage containers to be returned before moving the vehicles must contact The Expo Group prior to the end of the show.
OUTBOUND SHIPPING
- To facilitate an orderly and timely move out, it is imperative that all aisles remain clear of exhibit material so that empty containers can be returned. All freight free aisles must be kept clear during move- out.
- The Expo Group will begin returning cartons, plastics cases, wood crates and other material sent to empty storage around 4:00 PM or as soon as the aisle carpet has been removed. The Expo Group anticipates having all empties returned between 5:00 - 7:00 PM.
- All exhibit material leaving the show floor (from the docks) will require a Material Handling Agreement which can be prepared for you at the Service Center (located behind booth 1086)
- The UPS Business Center is located on the College Street Concourse. It will be open Thursday from 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM. Small hand carried items can also be shipped out from the UPS Business Center.
- After your materials are packed, labeled and ready to go; return the 'completed' Material Handling Agreement to the service center. Do not leave your Material Handling Agreement with your equipment at your booth. If you leave the Material Handling Agreement in your booth with your freight, we will not know that your freight is ready to be loaded out. You can also submit online to The Expo Group without going to the service center.
- If you are not using The Expo Group's preferred carriers or the pre-arranged FRI / FDIC Caravan, you must contact and confirm the pickup times with your carriers. All material must be packed and ready for out- bound loading and all drivers must be checked in at the dock by 8:00 AM, Saturday July 31.
- POV Access - Privately Owned Vehicles (POV’s) cannot access the docks or gates until after the apparatus have left the building. Full instructions online.
LEAD RETRIEVAL/FOLLOW-UP
- If you rented a lead retrieval unit from Maritz, please return the unit no later than 4:00 PM, Friday.
- If ordered, Post-Show Mailing Lists will be emailed in mid-August.
