Loading Docks and Ramps

17.1 Docks and Ramps

The PEC has an “open dock” policy. This allows individual exhibitors the right to handle their own freight if desired. Exhibiting firm personnel are allowed to unload, install, and dismantle the exhibits of the exhibit firm.

Loading dock bays are allocated according to the event. The facility does not relinquish control of the loading dock during any event.

Your Event Coordinator assigns the dock space(s) for your events. Storage is not allowed on or near the loading dock.

17.2 Service Yard Access

All move-in and move-out of exhibits must be through the service yard – the designated loading dock, freight elevators and freight doors. The lobby areas, side doors, escalators and passenger elevators are not to be used for this purpose.

The GSC is required to place at least one (1) representative at the entrance gate to the service yard to issue dock passes for freight waiting to enter the yard and unload at the dock. This person shall work in conjunction with the PEC Facility Service Representative.

Parking is not allowed in the service yard area.
