WWIN Logistics: Drayage, Labor & Shipping at The Expo at World Market Center

Most WWIN exhibitors don't get tripped up by the booth — they get tripped up by the logistics at The Expo at World Market Center: drayage, union labor, and getting freight in and out on time. Here's what to plan for.

Drayage (material handling)

World Market Center mixes permanent showrooms with temporary Expo space; freight handling depends on whether you're in a showroom or the Expo hall.

Labor at The Expo at World Market Center

Showroom build-outs and temporary booths follow different rules — confirm which space you're in before booking labor.

Docks & move-in

Multiple buildings with freight elevators serve the permanent showroom floors; the Expo hall has its own docks.

Our advice for WWIN

If you're in a permanent showroom, lighting and built-ins matter more than freight — design for the room you have. The easiest fix: let us handle the turnkey side — we deliver, install, run on-site support, and dismantle, so drayage and labor are our problem, not yours.

What is drayage at WWIN?
