Exhibitor Driven Vehicles
EDV Program Exhibitor-Driven Vehicles (EDV) are cars, station wagons, vans, or pickup trucks all less than 24ft in length. Be sure to tell them you are using your personal vehicle as part of the EDV Program. To participate in the EDV program, your total freight weight must not exceed 500 lbs. There will be a scale to weigh your product as it checks in.

Wait times may vary based on the number of vehicles checked in.
