When planning to ship your trade show exhibit, there are many variables to consider. Trade show shipping can be tricky, but the team at Embarq Creative strives to make the best possible decisions when it comes to shipping exhibits to and from each trade show.
Most people think their shipment is insured by the carrier, should something happen to – this is not usually the case. Shipping companies will typically only pay $0.30 – $0.60 per pound for your exhibit. For example, if your exhibit cost $20k and weighs 3000 pounds, you might only receive $900-$1800 for your exhibit…YIKES! Insuring your exhibit can help alleviate worrying about a damaged or lost exhibit.
