We are collecting gently used items to donate to local non-profits, including tables & chairs. At the close of the event, bring your contributions to the designated collection areas located in the East Hall, parking spots 22–23 and 62. Review the Donations & Recycling Flier and look for the Donation Drop-Off signs to guide you.

As part of our continued commitment to sustainability – and to help lower the cost of exhibiting – we’ve removed the requirement for carpet in all booth spaces. Eliminating this rule not only reduces waste from single-use flooring but also gives you more flexibility to manage your budget. You’re still welcome to bring or purchase flooring if you choose, but it’s completely options. Thank you for helping us create a more eco-friendly and cost-conscious event!

If you wish to have your empty crates and cartons stored by Freeman, they must be labeled with “Empty Crate” stickers, which can be obtained from the Freeman Service Desk, located behind the 1500 aisle in West Hall.  Please label your crates as soon as they are empty so that we can clean the exhibit floor and install the aisle carpeting. Items that are not labeled with an “Empty” crate sticker may be considered trash and discarded. Storage of empty crates is included in material handling (drayage) charges.

Empty crates will be returned immediately after the removal of the aisle carpet. Please keep all aisles clear as blocking the aisles will delay move-out. Due to the size of the event, it may take several hours to return all empty crates to the exhibit floor.

Exhibits must be fully dismantled with material handling agreements turned into the Freeman Service Desk no later than Saturday, November 22nd at 5:00PM. All exhibit materials must be totally removed from the facility by Saturday, November 22nd at 10:00PM.

Vehicles are authorized to enter the East Hall of the facility for loading and unloading purposes but cannot be left in the East Hall parking area for more than 30 minutes during move-in and move-out.
