The Carrier Standards of Performance were developed as a collaborative effort by EACA and ESCA (Exposition Service Contractors Association), and have been endorsed and adopted by the Board of Directors of both organizations.
Carrier Standards of Performance were developed to create a uniform code of conduct and professional ethics for all companies whose role is the pick up, delivery and handling of exhibit and trade show related materials to and from trade shows and events throughout the U.S.
It is the intention of the EACA, ESCA, and all other organizations that endorse this document, to foster harmony and mutual understanding in relations between exhibitors, exhibit transportation carriers, official contractors and Show Management, as it regards to the disposition of trade show freight. And, as such, each previously mentioned segment of our industry shares in the responsibility to make these standards a reality.
