Use a ladder, not a chair. Standing on chairs, tables and other rental furniture is unsafe and can cause injury to you or to others. These objects are not designed to support your standing weight.
Be aware of your surroundings. You are in an active work area with changing conditions during move in and move-out. Pay attention. Look for obstacles, machinery and equipment that are in use.
Keep your eyes open for scooters and forklifts. The drivers of these vehicles may not be able to see you.
Stay clear of dock areas, trucks and trailers. These areas can be particularly dangerous.
Prevent electrical shocks, falling items and damage to materials. Do not attach items or equipment to the drapes or metal framework provided for your booth. This can cause serious injury or damage to materials.
We discourage children from being in the exhibit hall during installation and dismantle. If children are present during installation and dismantle, they must be supervised by an adult at all times.
Grit Expositions does not ship or handle Hazardous Materials. If any materials you are shipping to the event fall into this category, please contact us to be sure the material will be allowed at the facility and by the association. In addition, if authorized by the facility and the association, you will need to make separate arrangements for the transport and handling of the approved materials, since Grit Expositions will not transport or handle them.
The operation or use of all motorized lifts and motorized material handling equipment for installation/dismantle of exhibits is NOT permitted by exhibitors or by their exhibitor appointed contractors (EAC’s).
