GJS specialise in Conference and Event transport, playing a key role in the logistical arrangements for hundreds of UK and European events annually.
We have established ourselves as the leading provider of services to businesses who exhibit at conferences, events and shows in the UK and Europe. GJS are also the leading provider to companies exhibiting and attending graduate recruitment fairs and law fairs at UK and European universities and conference centres.
Flexibility is at the core of all services that GJS couriers provide, and this is the case with our Conference and Event Logistics delivery solutions. Our usual procedure for any event can include:
Planning
Our specialist team of logistics planners will support you throughout the planning of any event, discussing the location and requirements in detail. GJS will plan the logistical side of the event and forward a report to the customer for sign off.
Collection
GJS will collect the event equipment from the customer in preparation for the event.
Storage
GJS are able to store conference stands, equipment, marketing materials, audio visual equipment and any other items required. This can be done on an ad-hoc basis, year round or on / off season. Our storage locations in Kent and London are perfectly positioned for transport into London or via Dover into Europe.
Delivery
GJS will deploy one of its own vehicles, from a small van to HGV, to deliver the goods to the event centre. Our extensive knowledge of event centres, UK and European universities and hotels mean that we are experienced in dealing with the challenges associated.
Construction
GJS staff will construct event stands and exhibition equipment to the specification of the customer. This can include pop up stands, banner stands, modular systems, folding panel kits, gantry systems, light boxes, furniture, literature racks, freestanding display stands, audio visual multimedia displays (including computers, plasma or LCD screens, DVD players, sound systems), poster displays, full scale office or retail mock ups and more.
Sign Off
GJS will ensure that the display is constructed to the customer’s requirements and handover with a sign off by the on-site contact. An electronic proof of delivery will be sent to the booker of the job via email within seconds of completion.
Take Down
At the end of the event, or at a time specified by the customer, GJS will return and dismantle the items.
