Boise Centre East Loading Dock

There are two exhibitor and freight entry points to Boise Centre East.

The Loading Dock (101 S. Capitol Blvd.) beneath the U.S. Bank Building consists of two loading bays and the D-5 freight elevator servicing the fourth floor of Ballroom 400 and meeting rooms. Due to limited space, the loading dock will not accommodate a trailer.

A second freight elevator, D-4, is accessible via the third floor of the City Center Parking Garage (195 S. Capitol Blvd.) and services the fourth floor, Ballroom 400, and meeting rooms. The maximum recommended vehicle height is 8 feet. Due to limited space, the parking garage will not accommodate a trailer.

Please contact your Event Manager to confirm the use of the loading docks, and freight elevators. One Boise Centre staff member is required as a dock manager for all tradeshows or large event move-ins and will be charged at current labor rates; please contact your Event Manager for more details.

The loading dock is for active loading and unloading; vehicles may not park on the dock. Several parking garages and street parking are available nearby.
