A Trade Show Crate That Keeps You Organized

When you plan for the many facets of having a trade show booth, you realize the whole thing is about organization. While that seems apparent when it comes to staffing, display pieces and merchandise, sometimes it is not so obvious when it comes to packing your trade show crates for shipment!

You think one large crate can hold most of the immediate items you really need at the event but what happens to those last second cables, zip ties and other random display setup components?

In most cases, these items get thrown into bags or other containers at the last minute. It might just be us but it sounds like this situation is quickly getting unorganized.

You finally arrive at the event and now you and your staff are trying to keep track of where things are and in what “extra” bag or container. Did everything make it to the show? Were some items lost along the way?  Not only is this frustrating to your staff but it can be a huge waste of time and money.

How do we suggest you keep things simple and organized? Valley Box’s custom trade show crates!
