Exhibiting Tips for Atlanta
- Freight & Marshaling
GWCC uses large marshaling yards with tight target dates. Missing your window can result in storage fees or delayed freight. SEE coordinates freight schedules to avoid this mess.
- Labor Rules
GWCC is non-union for general exhibit setup, but electrical, plumbing, and rigging require certified crews. SEE handles the approvals and paperwork.
- Rigging Requirements
Buildings B and C accommodate large hanging signs, LED walls, and overhead structures. Height limits vary by hall and event—SEE handles pre-show submissions.
- Drayage Strategy
Material handling rates can be above average. Lightweight booth engineering and optimized crate count reduce costs significantly.
- Traffic & Navigation
Downtown gets congested around major shows. Staying within walking distance saves time and headaches.
