Exhibitors can save money on Show expenses by taking advantage of advance rates. Show and booth services provided by Freeman, a SEMA Show vendor, include shipping, material handling, carpet, chairs and tables, utilities, furnishings, signs and graphics and cleaning.

According to Freeman, almost half of exhibitors do not utilize the savings offered to them by ordering before the advance rate deadlines.

“The advance rates help reduce Show costs, and are available to all exhibitors as early as May,” said SEMA Trade Shows Director Tom Gattuso. “Companies that wait until after the advance rate deadlines have passed before securing their booth services are leaving money on the table.”

Many of the discounted rates are available for services up until the beginning of October, with the exception of the internet/telephone service deadline, which is September 28.

The following services are available to exhibitors through Freeman at discounted rates if they place their orders online before their deadlines:

September 28: Internet/Telephone Orders (Advance Rate) – Cox Business (LVCC)
October 8: Utilities: Air/Water/Drain Order (Advance Rate) – Westgate Exhibits
