Loading Dock Information

The Connecticut Convention Center is easily accessible for move-in and move-out. Featuring a loading bay with 20 docks and two drive-in bays (32 ft. wide x 18 ft. high), the loading dock is accessible from the rear of the convention center, via Sheldon Street, off Columbus Boulevard.

Move-in times will be assigned to you by show management. Please arrive at your scheduled move-in time in order to maintain schedule, as the schedule is heavily enforced.

Any early arrivals will have the option of parking in the Connecticut Convention Center Parking Garage at prevailing rates. Due to height restrictions, only personal vehicles can be parked inside the garage. Oversized vehicles can park in the exterior, surface lot off of Columbus Blvd. Contact Laz Parking, our Partner in Parking, to arrange oversized vehicle parking at 860-728-2598.

When you arrive at the Loading Dock security gate, use the call box and speak with one of our security personnel who will verify your move-in time and ask you to proceed to the top of the loading dock ramp.

At the top of the loading dock ramp, a member of the CTCC Logistics staff will remind you of the following move-in procedures before designating a parking space for move-in:

• Exhibitors are given 30 minutes to unload.
• Once unloaded, your vehicle must be removed from the loading dock.
• Personal vehicles have the option of parking in the Connecticut Convention Center Parking Garage at prevailing rates.

The loading dock is managed by a dedicated Logistics Manager who can be contacted at 860-948-1969 or through our Security Office at 860-728-2636.
