Events and exhibitions are big business these days, so what does that tell you? From an exhibitor’s point of view, they work. How do we know this? Because of they didn’t, then these events and exhibitions wouldn’t be held, usually on an annual basis, but sometimes more frequently.
So, if these events and exhibitions are a good way to promote your company, your business, your products or services, it is important that you don’t miss out and that when there, you have a great display stand to help you stand out in a crowd. However, if you are a start-up or in the early days of business, having an event stand is one thing, but often its size is dictated by the size of your car, as that is the only means of transport you have to get it to the venue. By employing an events and exhibition courier, such as Distribusha with its wide range of van sizes available, means you don’t have any restrictions, other than the event space you have booked, on how big a display stand and display panels you take to an event.
The role of exhibition couriers
The role of an exhibition courier may seem very simple and straightforward, and here at Distribusha that is the impression we like to give, as we do not want our clients to worry about anything while we transport your event materials to the exhibition or event venue.
However, there is a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes, starting with ensuring we have the right vehicle available to transport your materials and equipment. We then need to ensure with you that everything is prepared for transportation. It is easy to forget that stands and displays for events are often re-usable and in many cases needed for up to 50 events before it might need replacing. If everything is not carefully wrapped and protected, you could easily find you need to replace everything after just five events. Because we have a duty of care to our clients, if we find materials are not fit for transportation, we will either rewrap them, which may result in a delay in delivery, or ask you to absolve us of any accidental damage in transportation – something we would prefer to avoid as we pride ourselves on the safe transportation of anything and everything we transport.
Next, we need to check the venue. Some require deliveries only at certain times, some have special access to certain areas in an exhibition centre and we need to confirm a time and location in relation to meeting your staff at the venue. Experience has taught us that the best service we can offer is the delivery of your materials and equipment to the specific site at a venue you have booked, but that we leave it to you to erect everything as you will always have a better idea in your mind how you will want things to work. Beyond this, the manufacturers of most display equipment have designs that make everything easy to erect.
Of course, there then comes the final part of our service, and that is making sure that everything is collected from the venue securely wrapped up ready for transportation to where you keep it stored and also ready for transportation to the next venue. For this reason alone – ensuring your display unit is always well protected – Distribusha can likely save you a great deal of money over many years to come.
However, what we haven’t mentioned, although as important as anything else we provide, is our commitment to reliability, punctuality, professionalism and availability at short notice, especially to existing clients. It is not by accident that over the years we have built our business on the back of personal recommendations, and as a firm that still remains ‘family run’, we are still able to offer something that larger, corporate companies are unable to provide, and that is ‘personal service’ that can be easily and swiftly adapted to meet your specific needs, even if they change at the very last minute.
