What Etobicoke hires
A sale has two lines, and the second one is the exit.
Warehouse and sample sales in the west end are a very particular job. Before the shutters go up there is a crowd wrapped around the outside of the building, along a sidewalk or down the side of a loading lane, and it has to stay tidy for the neighbouring units and the traffic going past. Once inside, shoppers spread out, and then everyone has to come back together at the tills and leave by one door with their bags checked. The equipment is the same at both ends; the layout at the exit is the part most briefs forget until the first afternoon.
Wrapped round the building
Barricade along the frontage and down the side of the unit, holding the queue against the wall and away from the parking aisle.
A switchback at the tills
Belt posts gather everyone into one tight snake to the payment desks, so the counters are fed evenly rather than mobbed.
One way out
A belted corridor from the last till to the door, with a bag-check point along it and signs telling nobody to come back in that way.
Where we deliver
From the lake shore up to the airport strip.
Many of the units that host these sales share a lot and a loading lane with their neighbours, so the drop has to fit around somebody else's trucks. Delivery, setup and collection are each a line on the quote: a brand bringing a sale crew tends to take the drop and build it, while an agency handling the event for somebody else usually wants the queue standing before the first shopper arrives.

Deliveries go to the kinds of space a west-end sale takes over:
- warehouse units and showrooms along the Queensway
- the industrial parks near the airport and the highway interchanges
- the waterfront towers' event rooms at Humber Bay
- the exhibition and trade halls near the airport
- the plazas and malls along the main arterials
- the college campus in the north of the borough
Send the unit address, the outline of the frontage and where the tills will stand, and both ends of the sale are laid out in a single count.
Worth asking
What an Etobicoke sale usually asks first.
- How much is it to hire queue posts for an Etobicoke sample sale?
- A black post with retractable belt costs $19 for a day, $29 for three days and $39 for a week, and a gold post with velvet rope is priced the same. A weekend sale often sits nicely on the three-day rate. Bringing the posts out, building the queue and clearing it at the end are quoted as their own items beside the hire.
- How do we keep the outside line off the neighbours' lot?
- Steel barricade laid tight along your frontage, turning down the side of the unit if the queue needs the length. It gives the line a hard edge that people do not wander out of, which keeps the shared parking aisle and the other units' entrances clear.
- What does a controlled exit actually look like?
- A switchback feeding the tills, then a single belted lane from the tills to the door with a bag-check point part way along. The corridor is narrow enough that people move through in one direction and wide enough for someone carrying two bags. A printed panel at the door marks it as exit only.
- Can the layout change once the sale is running?
- Yes, that is the point of belt posts. On a multi-day sale the crowd outside usually shrinks after the first day while the till queue does not, so posts can come off the outdoor stretch and go to the checkout. Ask for spare belt length in the order if you expect to move things around.
- Can the queue carry the brand of the sale?
- Yes. Barricade covers along the outdoor line, printed belts inside and panels in the sign frames at the door can all carry the artwork. They are produced for the order, so send the files with the brief rather than once the count is settled.
