Orlando convention & event support

Your event is here. Your local help is, too.

A missing shipment. Forgotten supplies. A booth to prepare or pack up. Silver Platter Logistics helps exhibitors and event teams handle the local details before, during, and after conventions, expos, fairs, and gatherings across greater Orlando. Tell us what needs to happen and when; we'll confirm a practical plan.

Event support is custom quoted. Purchases, food, venue charges, and partner services are separate unless included in your written quote.

Before we come onsite

You arrange authorization. We confirm the work.

You are responsible for obtaining venue and organizer approval for SPL and any agreed partner to enter and perform the requested tasks. Arrange passes, credentials, approved work times, unloading instructions, and an onsite contact. Share contractor registration and insurance-document requirements with us in advance.

All work must comply with venue rules, exclusive-provider agreements, and event labor requirements. We confirm availability, access, scope, and price before booking. SPL is an independent service.

Common questions

Questions about your plans.

Share the event, venue, task, and deadline so we can confirm the right arrangements.

Can you help with a last-minute request?

Call (407) 241-2125 with the task, location, and exact deadline. We check capacity, supplier readiness, travel, and venue access before confirming a price and completion window. Same-day, early-morning, evening, and weekend requests are considered based on availability. An inquiry is not a confirmed booking.

Who obtains permission for you to be onsite?

You must obtain authorization from the venue and event organizer for SPL and any agreed partner to enter and perform the requested work. Arrange credentials, passes, approved work hours, unloading instructions, and an onsite contact before service. Let us know about contractor registration and insurance-document requirements in advance. We confirm the assignment only when the necessary arrangements can be met; customer authorization does not override venue rules or exclusive-service requirements.

Can you collect something I have overnighted to Orlando?

Yes, subject to release permission, package readiness, size, and availability. We can arrange collection from a carrier location, hotel, receiving service, or local vendor and deliver to an approved handoff point. Send tracking information and the recipient's pickup authorization. Confirm the receiving address and release requirements before shipping; do not ship to SPL without an agreed receiving arrangement. Carrier, hotel, and venue handling fees are separate.

Do you offer setup and teardown?

You can request unpacking, tabletop displays, materials placement, kit assembly, packing, and teardown assistance. We review the task, item sizes, tools, and event rules before confirming it. Structural exhibits, heavy lifting, electrical work, rigging, and restricted booth labor are coordinated through appropriate providers when available. Your quote identifies who will perform each task.

Can you bring food to the event?

We offer restaurant pickup, food delivery, and requested meal setup where the venue and organizer permit it. Some venues require food and beverage service through an exclusive caterer. Obtain approval before ordering outside food; where an exclusive provider is required, we can discuss coordination with that provider. Food, equipment, service staff, and cleanup are priced separately unless included in your quote.

What if the request needs another specialist?

Tell us what you need. We can help source and coordinate printers, rental suppliers, freight or cargo-van providers, approved exhibit crews, AV specialists, and other event vendors. Availability is confirmed case by case. We identify the provider, scope, charges, and payment arrangements for your approval before committing to outside services.

How is event support priced?

Each request receives a custom quote based on the task, total working time, urgency, distance, stops, item size, access, setup, and waiting. Purchases, parking, tolls, shipping, handling fees, and partner charges are identified in the quote or agreed expense allowance. You approve spending and substitutions before we buy or commit to anything. Extra work or changed costs require approval.

Which events and locations do you serve?

We consider requests for conventions, trade shows, expos, fairs, corporate meetings, private events, and other gatherings across greater Orlando and Central Florida. This includes requests at the Orange County Convention Center, convention hotels, fairgrounds, and other event buildings, subject to location-specific permission. SPL is an independent service, not an official venue or show contractor.

Can you take care of return shipping after the show?

We can assist with agreed packing, supply purchases, collection, and delivery to an approved shipping provider. You approve the carrier, labels, service level, and shipment costs. Freight, pallets, temporary storage, and venue-controlled material handling require separate arrangements. We do not provide passenger transportation.
