About the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center Dallas and your show freight
Dallas sits in the middle of the country, which makes it a convenient meeting point for shows but a long haul for most exhibitors. Freight leaving the East or West Coast needs days of transit, and the schedule in your exhibitor manual is firm.
Texas heat in the summer months is a concern for graphics, adhesives and electronics left in a trailer. We wrap or crate displays for the trip and talk through anything temperature-sensitive before booking.
Advance warehouse or direct-to-show in Dallas
For a long trip to Dallas, the advance warehouse gives your freight a buffer, since it can arrive days ahead of the show and wait for the process that moves it to the booth. Direct-to-show suits exhibits finishing close to the date and shipped by a truck that can hit its assigned window. Your exhibitor manual sets the dates, labels and addresses for both.
Many exhibits travel from Dallas to a second show in Texas or the Southwest. Send us the calendar, and we will plan the exhibit moving between venues instead of returning home first.
Planning tips for Dallas shows
- Add a buffer to the transit time for long hauls
- Share the next show date so the exhibit can move on directly
- Protect temperature-sensitive items during summer shipping
- Confirm the receiving contact for direct-to-show delivery
