SUPPLIER DEMO EQUIPMENT SHIPPING
FISA will not provide labor to move equipment into the room. Please make sure that your common carriers know that this is an inside delivery. Placement of equipment will be around the perimeter of the Emerald Ballroom which is where the meetings and demos are taking place. Placement of equipment will be based on size, electrical needs, and ease of movement around the room. The resort personnel will have a room diagram and know where every piece of equipment gets placed.
