Loading Bay & Height Clearance

Loading Bay Access

Event organisers should note that only commercial vehicles such as vans and lorries are permitted into the loading bays. To access the loading bay, turn in from Nicoll Highway as indicated on the map below: 

Dedicated loading bays are made available on level 4 and level 6 of the Centre. Suntec Singapore reserves loading bays for goods vehicles such as vans and lorries only.

Drivers should note the following height safety clearances when accessing the respective loading bays:

  • Level 2 – 3m*
  • Level 3 – 3m*
  • Level 4 – 4m* 
  • Level 6 – 4m*

* Organisers should note that the internal door height within the Centre may differ from the loading bay height stated above.

Vehicles are only permitted to use the bays for loading/unloading activities for a maximum duration of 20 minutes per vehicle. For safety reasons, storage of items is not allowed unless permission is granted in advance. To apply for storage, please use AP-012 Loading Bay Storage Permit.

For safety reasons, Organisers should take note that vehicles are not permitted to park on the spiral or vehicular ramps that lead into the exhibition halls at Levels 4 & 6.

Loading-bay allocation will be reflected in the licensing agreement and event organisers should share this information with all delivery contractors and freight forwarders prior to the event. Suntec Singapore can only accept delivery of items during the licensed period. Delivery companies and freight forwarders attempting to access loading bays before or after the licensed period will be declined entry.

Suntec Singapore allows all delivery and freight forwarding companies using goods vehicles to access loading bays. Large and heavy items that cannot be pushed on a trolley (and require the usage of a forklift or pallet jack) should be moved by an official freight forwarder only. For a list of official freight forwarders, please refer to Partners Guide.
