With event technology there is no buffer: the show starts at the announced time – with or without your equipment. Speed Logistics transports stage, lighting and sound technology as direct transport with a fixed time window: from the warehouse of the rental company or production service provider to the venue, between tour stops or back to the warehouse after dismantling.
Our dispatch team is personally available 24/7 – even when the load-in shifts, dismantling runs into the night or replacement material is missing at short notice. You receive the fixed-price offer within a few hours, and we drive Europe-wide and with customs clearance to non-EU countries too – to wherever the production takes place: arena, exhibition hall, open-air site or studio.
What equipment we move
- Lighting technology – moving heads, dimmer racks and consoles in flight cases
- Sound technology – line arrays, amp racks, monitors and microphone cases
- Stage and rigging technology – trusses, motors, platforms and stage elements
- Video and media technology – LED wall cases, projectors, control positions
- Exhibition and event fit-out – stand-construction elements, furniture, decoration
From the Sprinter for the follow-up delivery of individual cases to the 40 t articulated lorry for the complete production, we assign the right vehicle – cases roll over the tail lift or the loading ramp of the hall. On request we handle combinations of technology, stand construction and decoration in one journey, so that only one vehicle has to be unloaded at the venue – this saves slot time and ramp capacity.
Time slot, load-in and dismantling logistics
We time the transport to your production schedule: delivery to the agreed load-in slot, coordinated with the hall management or stage manager, waiting time of the vehicle during short events by agreement, return collection straight after dismantling – at two in the morning too. For tours we chain the stops as a sequence of direct transports, so the material is at the next venue in the morning. Flight cases are loaded upright, secured with straps and load bars and roll through without transhipment – sensitive consoles and optics stay in the padded case. Your driver receives the contact, loading-point information and accreditation notes in advance, so the slot does not fail at the entrance.
Express replenishment in the event of failures
If an amp rack or a moving-head case fails before the show, every hour counts: as an express direct transport we collect replacement material at the warehouse and drive it to the venue without an intermediate stop – overnight, at the weekend, right across Europe. Give us the collection address, case dimensions and the deadline; the dispatch team confirms the realistic arrival time immediately. We also distribute part productions in parallel: while the articulated lorry carries the basic setup, a Sprinter brings the control technology straight to the FOH build.
Transports abroad and customs on tours
For productions outside the EU – such as in Türkiye, North Africa or the Gulf – we handle the complete customs clearance including the ATA Carnet for the temporary export of your equipment: the material travels out and back in duty-free, without import duties arising. You supply the material list with values and serial numbers, and we take care of clearance and border crossings. Costs depend on loading metres, lane and deadline pressure – your transparent fixed price is ready within a few hours.
