Trade Show Booths Need Custom Crating
First and foremost, you want to make sure your trade show booth elements and supplies are being shipped the correct way. If you throw everything loose into a cardboard box or even a wood crate, it is going to get damaged. Trade show booths and elements are constantly on the road and are being jostled around, you need a crate that is built for your set-up. Each item is placed in its own area of the crate that has custom padding and protection to prevent the items from shifting around and getting damaged on impact. Our team can help design crates that protect your items and be used again and again.
That custom crate is great if it is used correctly. Like we mentioned, each piece of your booth has a specific area that is specially designed for it. But, if your team packs things incorrectly after a day at a convention hall, that extra protection goes out the window. It is invaluable to provide detailed instructions of how to unpack and pack a tradeshow crate. Crate This builds crates with your team in mind. We make sure that packing and unpacking will be easy and straightforward. That said, a great piece of advice is to take pictures of crates before they are unpacked and to provide diagrams as well. This can help your team maintain consistency.
Another thing to consider is the storage of your tradeshow booth when it is not in use. We recommend working with a team like Crate This that can provide crating that works for storage as well as it works for transit. That being said, it is important to choose the right storage facility in your area. You want your booth to be easily accessible so that you can quickly and effectively get it before the next tradeshow circuit. With Crate This, we can store your goods and ship them to you straight from our facility.
The smartest way to pack tradeshow booth parts is in a custom crate that is designed for multiple uses. With Crate This we make crating with custom padding and foam inserts that protect your goods from location to location. Custom dimensions and padding prevent your booth elements from getting damaged in transit, while the crate itself is also designed for multiple trips thanks to it’s durable wood.
If you are taking your tradeshow to an international location, you should consider custom crating that is approved for international shipping. International freight has to be packaged with materials that meet international regulations including ISPM-15 certified wood and lumber. Additionally, you want to make sure you have extra protection depending on what is being shipped and where it is being shipped. For example, you want to make sure electronics have water proofing and vapor barrier protection if they are shipped by ocean freight methods.
We recommend taking pictures of fully packed tradeshow crates and including detailed instructions of where every item goes, this is the best way to protect your items. If you have a custom crate built but pack it incorrectly, you will waste the benefits of the custom designed elements of your crate and put your goods at a higher risk for damage.
