ONLINE EXHIBITOR MANUAL & INFORMATION

Bump In

The Trade Expo will be moving in and out with strict timeframes, deliveries will not be accepted at the venue earlier. We strongly recommend using the official logistics provider, as they will be onsite at each expo and will enforce the delivery and collection parameters of external providers. 

It is our intention to: 

  • Schedule the move in of all custom stands 
  • Minimize overhead lifts where possible 
  • Separate as much as possible, people from equipment 
  • Ensure we are adhering to safety standards at each Expo  
  • Develop a safe and efficient move out plan 

Accordingly, our logistics provider will be developing and communicating to all relevant parties, a detailed “move in and out schedule” for space only (custom) stands for all states we ask that you comply with this schedule and aren’t onsite any earlier then specified. Timeslots will be allocated based on the access and build parameters. 

As a result, the build of some shell stands near the dock end may be delayed. Should this be the case, Bunnings will communicate with those affected by delayed shell build, regarding the timing of move in, to assist with overall planning.

Our logistics provider will be in touch in due course regarding the Move in Schedule (for custom stands). 

Deliveries of product & display items are strict. Please see the state tabs for the delivery details and timings. 

We ask for everyone’s cooperation to adhere to the schedules and demonstrate patience. 
Inappropriate behaviour and attitude towards our contractors will not be tolerated.
