Your estimate
Everything delivered by truck: crates, cases, carpet, signs. Your shipper or booth builder can give you the weight
Enter your freight weight or labor
Crated freight of 25 lb or more. Shipments under 25 lb are a flat $54.08 each. The higher rate is GES's non-standard rate, for freight off its target dates or not crated.
Labor rates for this show aren't published where we can check them, so this covers material handling only.
From the rates published for CinemaCon 2027 at Caesars Palace (GES). Electrical, booth space, your booth, travel and shipping to the warehouse are extra, and so are labor minimums, supervision and special handling surcharges. Small shipments may be billed at a minimum charge. Your contractor's invoice and order forms are the final word.
