To assist you in setting up your OUTGOING SHIPMENT, Rosemont Exposition Services will have a drayage desk located at the Exhibitor's
Service Center. Labels, shipping instruction forms and shipping information will be available.
At the close of the show, where carriers fail to pick up or refuse to accept shipments, the drayage contractor reserves the right to re-route such
shipments where no disposition is provided. Material may be hauled to a warehouse pending notice from the exhibitor. Accordingly exhibitors
will be charged accordingly for this service. No liability will be assumed as a result of such re-routing or handling.
Freight handling charges are the responsibility of the exhibitor to whom shipments have been consigned. Also, charges for loading out freight
shipments are the responsibility of the exhibitor from whose booth shipments are made. Exhibitors may not assign this responsibility to
suppliers or customers.
No material may be loaded or removed from the Exhibit Hall until 5:00pm on August 7, 2024. Any freight left in the Exhibit Hall
after 10:00pm on August 7, 2024 will be re-routed in accordance with the conditions in item # 5 of these shipping Instructions.
Any parcels shipped via UPS, FED-X or DHL are subject to a $25.00 per parcel handling fee. This fee includes the movement of the parcel off
the show floor at the close of the event, transportation back to the RES warehouse to be given to the selected carrier the next business day.
