IMPORTANT!
MOVE-IN | Tuesday, March 4, 2014
Due to the location and access of the loading bays, the move-in and move-out schedule will be determined by
your booth location. On page 14-15 of this manual you will find floor plans indicating the phased timing. Please
ensure that you are aware of this schedule. Any vehicle access will only be admitted through the Metro Toronto
Convention Centre marshalling yard.
This year, Dx3 will be held in the North Building, Level 300 Exhibit Hall C. Loading for exhibitors will take place at
the East Loading Docks - where they can off-load items then go into the hallway and take the freight elevator
to Level 3 (then Hall C).
STORAGE
* PLEASE NOTE there is a limited amount of storage on-site.
Exhibitors can store empty storage themselves by carrying items back to their vehicle or order Material Handling
through GES to store necessities. Material Handling also includes unloading of trucks/vehicles on-site, return of
empty boxes to your booth and loading your trucks/vehicles at the end of the show.
MOVE-OUT | Thursday, March 6, 2014
