The Venetian operates under strict union rules. Vendors attempting to transport goods themselves may be stopped by union workers, causing delays or fines. Drayage ensures your materials are handled professionally and efficiently from delivery to booth setup.
If you choose to self-carry:
- No carts allowed through hotel corridors
- Unloading must occur at hotel front or parking lot
- No access to loading docks without paid drayage
Pack light, use suitcases, or hire bellhops for assistance.
