Loading Crafts in and out of Craft Shows!

Depending on the show, you may need help loading crafts in and out of your car and visa versa.

Some of the larger craft shows will hire students to help with parking for the vendors and loading crafts and unloading. But many shows do NOT!. You will need to be ready for this. If you have your car loaded with containers, make sure to get yourself one of those "movers on 2 wheels", you see appliances strapped to them and moved around, well they are GREAT for 2 or 3 tubs at a time, and will save your back injury!

If you are lucky enough to have big strapping kids or partner, that thinks nothing of helping you setup and move tubs around then you are in fine shape!, but if not, then you need something that is portable enough to fit in your car ON TOP of the containers.

This may sound like silly advice, but you would be amazed at how many vendors I have seen having to get all the tubs of product out of the car, all over the parking lot, while they try and find their mover that was UNDERNEATH all the tubs!.

Most shows want you unloaded and your car out of the way as quickly as possible, I mean, you can imagine how many vehicles and trailers there would be at a large show, so they don't want you taking one box or tub at a time into the building, they want as much stuff moving as possible.

It is very important, that if you can only get help once or twice at your craft show, that it be to help UNLOAD and LOAD your supplies. Once you are at your spot then you can breathe and start doing your setup..

Get yourself one of those loaders on 2 wheels, best thing I ever purchased for craft shows!
