Orbus^® offers a variety of service capabilities and storage options from its Chicago and Las Vegas-based facilities. Orbus has a dedicated service team to support companies who would like their exhibit material inspected, prepared and/or stored in between shows and events.

Storage and full service capabilities are available in Orbus’ Woodridge, Illinois and Las Vegas, Nevada facilities.

Storage Rates
Storage rates are $0.35 per cubic foot or $140 per month minimum. Fees are billed monthly, in advance and in full month increments only. Orbus offers three different levels of service for its storage clients. Each client is presented with the three options, along with a cost analysis for each. Clients choose one service level for all their in/outs, but they can request a different service level for any particular event.

All levels of set-up service are available in Woodridge, Illinois and Las Vegas, Nevada.

Level 1 (In & Out)

Level 2
Level 2 service is billed at $90 per hour with a 1 hour minimum; this does not include any additional charges for new/replacement graphics, new/replacement hardware or rush charges. This service option is for clients that have the same booth configuration for every show, with the possibility of changing out different sets of pre-existing graphics.

• Components are re-packed in proper manner for shipment to the next show.
• Crates/skids are tagged and placed in the racks, ready to ship.
• Any non-storage items are returned to the client or disposed of accordingly.
• When the next order is received, the crates are pulled, the proper graphics are placed in the crates and the booth is shipped.
• A minimum lead time of 5 business days prior to shipping is required for this service level. If less than 5 days are provided, a late fee equal to 100% of the In/Out fee will be assessed.

Level 3
