Why Choosing the Right Event Logistics Company Matters for Successful Event Attendance?

For many of you, an exhibition is a chance to achieve many goals, all within a relatively short space of time. However, what comes with that potential is a great deal of pressure, and at such a time, you need to be able to concentrate on what you are going to do once there, not worry about getting everything you need there on time. 

Event logistics couriers can smooth the way for a successful exhibition 

Here at Distribusha, we have worked with hundreds of businesses who rely heavily on having a big presence at major exhibitions. Many of these companies we have worked with year after year, so they already have peace of mind from knowing that when it comes to getting their exhibition stand to the exact location it is needed, as event couriers we have the necessary experience. Here you should note that when we talk about the exact location at an exhibition centre, we don’t just mean the centre itself, but the spot where the client has been allocated a specific space for their stand. 

The great advantages of using an event logistics company 

There are many less-than-obvious advantages to using a courier for your event logistics, as follows: 

• Considerable cost savings
• Inside knowledge of venues
• Contingencies for last minute changes
• National coverage
• Fit-for-purpose vehicles
• Reliability

Using event couriers can result in considerable cost savings 

If you think about things logically, getting a couple of members of your own staff to hire a van and transport your stall to any exhibition centre isn’t as cost effective as it may seem, especially if the centre is 200 miles from your office. First off, it is likely your key staff will be focused on their own challenges when it comes to the event, and they will not want to be concerned with setting up the exhibition stand. That means you will have to take two staff away from their day job for three days, which is three days where they will not be earning any money. You will then have to pay for their overnight accommodation and food. On top of that you have three days of van hire and fuel costs. 

Now when you add everything up, you can see why turning to an event logistics company makes better sense, as it will be a lot less of an expense. 

Event couriers can help reduce stress through inside knowledge 

Particularly with major exhibition venues, finding where you should set up your stall can be a nightmare in itself. Fortunately, here at Distribusha, we know all the exhibition centres throughout the UK, and we can guarantee to have all your exhibition equipment delivered to the right spot at exactly the right time. We can also apply that knowledge when it comes to the dismantling and removal of everything. 

Event couriers can make contingencies for last-minute changes 

Imagine if at the last minute you find you got the dates wrong by a day for the exhibition. Could you find another van to hire at the last minute? Would you have the staff available to transport everything? Now this isn’t an everyday occurrence, but here at Distribusha, on more than one occasion we have had to make last minute schedule changes, and we are fortunate enough to have both the vehicles and staff number so be able to cope with such challenges. 

The advantages of a national event courier 

If you only attend one major exhibition a year, then this will not apply to you, but some of our clients attend up to twenty different events throughout the calendar, and at locations across the UK. So, how does using an event courier help? Here at Distribusha we can arrange with you to rent a centrally located lock-up self-storage unit and work out of there. That way you don’t end up with costly charges because every exhibition is located miles from your office – think having an office in Kent or Devon, then Newcastle is a long way away, but if all your display equipment is stored in Manchester, then nowhere is far away, thus reducing the cost of using an events courier like Distribusha. 

An event logistics company has fit-for-purpose vehicles 

There’s nothing wors that going to a stand at an exhibition and you notice that everything is looking a little tired and worn out at the edges. That is often a sign that the company has chosen to transport the exhibition stand and equipment themselves. We take great pride in having the right packing equipment and fit-for-purpose vans to make sure that all your equipment arrives in pristine condition, enabling you to present your company in its best light. 

Reliability is crucial for event logistics 

Here at Distribusha, we don’t just deliver your event equipment, we deliver peace of mind though our total reliability. We don’t want you worrying about anything other than what you have to do once the exhibition starts, just leave the event logistics up to us.
