SCAM ALERT
Several companies are posing as official Truck World suppliers and contacting exhibitors with false offers including hotel / travel promotions, attendee lists, exhibitor directory listings and more. Please note these claims are false and these offers are scams. These suppliers are in no way affiliated with Truck World and we do not sell attendee lists or directory listings, under any circumstances.
Please be advised that ALL our service providers are based in the Greater Toronto Area, Ontario, Canada. Should you receive any communication from a service provider offering attendee lists or hotel / travel promotions, please check with show management before ordering / paying for any services.
Please visit our website at https://www.truckworld.ca/travel-accommodation to book your travel and hotel accommodations through our preferred partners.
