You crate and palletize your exhibit; we pick it up and handle it like the high-value freight it is.
LTL, partial, or full truckload — we match the mode to your freight and coordinate it to the show's deadline.
Tracked to the show's target date, with expedited and overnight options when the deadline won't bend.
Your freight reaches the convention center dock on the target date, ready for move-in — so setup starts on schedule.
We coordinate your show freight from pickup to the convention center dock and back — so deadlines hold, surprises don't, and you focus on the booth, not the logistics.
A team that lives in show logistics — marshaling yards, advance warehouses, and move-in windows are second nature.
Structured, step-by-step help completing your move-out shipping paperwork correctly and following the show decorator’s procedures — so outbound goes smoothly at teardown.
Every exhibit logistics need — inbound, outbound, and venue coordination — managed through one point of contact.
Special equipment and time-critical service to meet strict show deadlines when the schedule won't bend.
Show schedules, target dates, and venue details tracked for you, so paperwork and timing stay correct.
Bonded, vetted, and accountable — backed by a 25-year reputation and the industry's top broker certification.
Send your booth, target dates, and freight. We quote fast and lock the plan to the show's deadlines.
Pickup, advance-warehouse or show-site delivery to the venue dock, and coordination to the show's target date.
Outbound is arranged before you tear down, so your equipment is home when you need it next.
“TOMRA manages a variety of trade shows each year, so finding a reputable, professional freight company to get our machines and booth crates there safely and on time is critical. Knowing I can count on CTS for the best pricing and the support we need — before, during, and after each show — lets me focus on everything else. They handle every freight matter from start to finish, they care about their customers, and they’re there whenever I need them, even on weekends. I can’t imagine doing a trade show without them.”
An amazing transportation company to work with, simply said. I used CTS for my first-ever Pack Expo exhibit — newly hired at the time — and the staff went out of their way to help with the entire logistics process, start to finish, so our highly valuable packaging machinery shipped seamlessly between show site and our plant. I highly recommend their services!
Navigating the logistics of a trade show tour can be a trial by fire. With Creative Transportation Services you get more than just moving freight — you get clarity, transparency, and something that’s lacking almost anywhere else: personal interaction. They were there at every single stage we needed them. Thank you so much, CTS!
I’ve used Creative Transportation for trade shows and for the company I work for. Sebastian and their team provided excellent customer service and guidance through the whole process. Trade show shipping can be complicated, but Sebastian guided me through everything — making sure the paperwork was correct and our equipment got there on time, then picked up and back to us with no issues.
These are our main shows, grouped by the industries we move most. As a non-asset broker, we ship to any show across North America — if yours isn’t listed here, we still handle it end to end.
From regional expos to the biggest floors in the country — if it exhibits in North America, we ship to it. No fleet, no terminals, no limits.
We've compiled the details first-timers and veterans miss — the small things that decide whether move-in is smooth or stressful.
Tell us about your next show. We'll handle the freight so you can handle the floor.
