- For Attendees
Due to the volume of crates, limited space for set up, and time needed to install aisle carpet, a Clean Floor Policy will be enforced. To assist with the overall setup of IAAPA Expo, please review the specific empty removal timelines identified below to help avoid any logistical disruptions to a successful event opening. Please discuss this policy with all staff and EAC's involved in your booth construction.
All crates will need to be tagged with the appropriate empty labels based on your targeted move-in time shown below. If not a $50 per crate surcharge will apply.
Targeted Move-in Zones 1 & 2 – Those exhibitors assigned Targeted Move-in for Thursday, Nov. 13 need to have all crates tagged for removal by 12 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 15.
Targeted Move-in Zones 3 & 4 – Those exhibitors assigned Targeted Move-in for Friday, Nov. 14 need to have all crates tagged and labeled for removal by 5 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 15.
General Move-in – Those exhibitors assigned General Move-in for Saturday, Nov. 15 through Monday, Nov. 17 need to have all crates tagged and labeled for removal by 5 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 17.
Exhibitors may continue working within the booth space with Monday, Nov. 17 the last day for exhibitors to complete final touch-up on their displays and set their product by 5 p.m.
Label crates for empty removal as soon as they are empty and no longer needed. Since empty crates get stored in multiple locations, having them removed at the same time does not mean they will be stored together or returned at the same time.
Any crates without empty or accessible storage labels will be tagged by the floor managers or the General Service Contractor and removed from the exhibit hall, whether they are empty or not. Any retrieval or movement of these materials for exhibitors to finish set up of the booth will be at the exhibitor's expense.
All booths must be set or in progress by 5 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 17.
There will be no exceptions to the Clean Floor Policy and violation may result in a fine and/or loss of seniority.
Thank you for your cooperation. We look forward to working with you to ensure a successful show!
