NYCC logistics: load in and out

The NYCC administration sent a “must read email”, which struck my fancy, so on a lark I opened it up to see if there was anything of interest.  Glad I did, it gave a bit of info I needed ahead of time.

I am planning to do a POV load-in (POV means privately owned vehicle).  I will be able to fit all my gear into my car (probably), or if not, into my van (the creepy old man van).  The show is at the Javits Center, which is usually highly controlled by Unions for getting stuff in and out of events.  But for this show, you can load yourself for free.

The email gave some rules about this, which were new to me.

First, and biggest: where to drive in to unload, and that YOU MUST HAVE A SECOND PERSON with you.  The vehicle cannot be left alone at any time.  I was thinking of going alone, and would have been blocked.  Rules say single occupant vehicles will not be allowed into unload area at all.  I have tapped my friend JB to ride shotgun.

Second rule of interest: only 2 wheel carts allowed.

Third: 300 lbs max for total booth materials.
