Cart and Hand Truck Rentals

If you are planning on distributing materials, welcome packets or giveaways; or if you have equipment, product, signs or easels that will need to be moved throughout your conference. Cart-It can assist you. They provide push cart and hand truck rentals to assist with the set up or movement of your materials during your meeting or convention at the WDW Swan and Dolphin. Is it challenging for you or your staff to move materials, signage, easels and other meeting supplies at your meetings? Move all of this and more, while allowing your meeting or convention to be more successful and easier than you could have imagined. Your meetings will be more efficient and your travel staff will thank you for giving them the tools that they need to be more effective. Cart-It will deliver the carts and hand trucks directly to your meeting room or convention hall, when and where you need them. Flatbed carts, AV (audio visual) carts and hand trucks are rented for $25.00 per day per cart with a delivery/pick-up fee which is based on the number of carts that are ordered. Standard carts are 30”x60” for larger loads and for 24”x48” for smaller loads and ease of movement.

The Business Center staff can assist you in choosing the correct equipment for your groups needs. The following equipment is available through the Swan and Dolphin Business Centers: Xerox Copiers, Fax Machines, Personal Computers, Laptop Computers, Laser Jet Printers, Cell Phones, 2-Way Radios, and Paper Shredders. No more 11th hour worries! 24-hour self-service access to the Internet, e-mail, and computer, fax, copy, print, and laptop stations are available at the Dolphin.

Electrical Most major productions and large general sessions have special electrical power and equipment requirements. Our exclusive electrical contractor, GES ELECTRICAL SERVICES, is available to provide estimates to you and your production company. Any supplemental electrical installations will appear as separate charges on your master account. As well, all additional electrical specifications which necessitate power being brought in to a temporary location, will require a special permit from the Building Inspector, and a stand-by electrician whenever the temporary system is energized. The cost of permits and labor will appear on your master account. Please note that bids from Disney Event Group or any other entertainment company do not include the charges for electrical installation and electrical equipment. This is an extra charge which will be added to your master account. If you should need a quote of the anticipated electrical charge, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
