Trim Costs at Your Next Trade Show! Lower Shipping and Setup Costs.
There are a wide selection of choices in portable, light-weight trade show displays. The best choices offer very light weight, ultra portable solutions for trade show exhibitors that lower shipping and drayage fees, while providing the exhibitor with a display that is simple and fast to set up.
Many of the portable light weight options may not be a suitable replacement for companies accustomed to spending lots of money on custom displays. Many people would be amazed at how nice of an exhibition booth is available for a very low price. All you need to do is pick wisely, finding displays that use the latest technologies in extrusions and graphics. Potential ultra portable display tools come from these display families:
* retractable banner stands
* Dye Sub fabric graphic displays
* Pop-up panel displays
* Pop-up booths made of sturdy fabric
The best light weight display stands pack up into a single case. Everything required is in that one shipping container. Most can be set up without tools, and the rest of the good designs only need a hex wrench or screwdriver.
Sometimes custom displays require shipping crates or a large number of shipping cases. The problem is, depending on the location of your show, you probably can’t bring heavy cases or large crates inside to the show by yourself. Instead, you will probably be required (at least in the continental US) to hire contracted union installers and pay drayage, that is the fee for moving heavy items into the trade show area.
Five ways portable trade show displays save you money and time:
1. Installation is quick and simple. Ultra portable displays can be setup very quickly, by almost anyone.
2. Because they are so small and lightweight, even strong union show sites still allow you to bring in your own displays, eliminating drayage fees.
3. If you pick an off-the-shelf display design that is light weight, with no customization costs, no added engineering costs…you’ll save money – duh
4. Lightweight displays these days are less than 100 lbs, sometimes much less. They ship in small cases, not large wood crates. They ship via UPS or FedEx, not a freight truck. And all of these reasons mean they cost much less to ship!
5. Sometimes you can even save more, with light weight ultra portable displays, by carrying them or checking them on your airplane flight – no added shipping costs at all.
Review the trade-offs associated with using high tech ultra portable displays; if money is not important, then neither are these displays.
But if you are like most businesses and trying to do as much as you can with as little as possible, you want and need to get high visual impact, portability, and functionality with portable trade show displays for less hassle and much less money. If that is the case, then spend some time investigating light weight, portable trade show design ideas – you will not regret it!
