Can I send my exhibition equipment to the MCEC?
If you need to send bulky exhibition equipment to the venue, this needs to be arranged via the freight forwarder. Large trolleys, pallet jacks or other methods of moving bulky objects are not allowed access to the venue. Items you cannot comfortably carry or those in excess of 20kgs, will need to be delivered to the nominated freight forwarder, Agility Fairs & Events. Who will deliver your equipment to the exhibition floor.
If the item can be carried, or moved using your own small box trolley (ie to move small cartons), you will be able to transport your equipment from the parking bays to the exhibition area via the foyer and elevators. Do not transport any equipment via the escalator.
Agility Fairs & Events (a specialised exhibition and event logistics provider) has been appointed as the official logistics contractor to Storage Decisions Australia 2010. The venue has very strict guidelines regarding delivery and loading dock access times and deliveries will not be accepted at the MCEC prior to 12th May. We highly recommend using Agility as their service is door-to-stand and they work weekends and outside normal business hours. Agility Fairs & Events will deliver your equipment to the exhibition floor on, Level 01 of the MCEC, ready for set up at 6am on May 12th.
Agility Fairs & Events can arrange all local, interstate and international transport services including delivery onto each exhibitors' stand at the exhibition venue. Storage of early consignments, packing materials during the exhibition and storage after the exhibition can also be arranged.
