If you’re in Chino Hills, California and you’re searching for slip sheets… you’re not doing it because you’re “shopping.”

You’re doing it because the Inland Empire doesn’t forgive waste.

Out here, shipping is not a theory.

It’s trucks.
It’s docks.
It’s tight schedules.
It’s warehouses that run hot.
It’s freight bills that punish every dumb decision.

And pallets—wood pallets—are one of the most expensive “accepted” habits in the entire logistics world.

They’re like a tax you keep paying because everybody else pays it.

Until you’re the one staring at the monthly numbers asking, “How are we spending THIS much… just to ship?”

That’s the pallet tax.

You pay to buy pallets.
You pay to store pallets.
You pay to move pallets around your building.
You pay to ship pallets (weight + wasted cube).
You pay to dispose of pallets.
And sometimes you pay again when a receiver rejects the load because the pallet is broken, dirty, or not compliant.

Slip sheets exist to cut that tax without changing the product you sell.

But only if they’re specced correctly.

Because when slip sheets are wrong, you don’t get savings… you get ripped tabs, shifting loads, dock backups, and forklift operators who look at you like you personally ruined their day.

Slip sheets aren’t the problem.

Bad specs are the problem.

Let’s talk Chino Hills reality.

You’re sitting right on top of one of the most intense logistics ecosystems in the United States. The Inland Empire is basically America’s warehouse—and that means your packaging decisions need to do two things:

  1. Keep freight moving fast

  2. Keep cost per shipment down

So when slip sheets come up, it’s usually because someone wants one of these outcomes:

Slip sheets can deliver those wins—when the workflow fits.

What Slip Sheets Actually Are (Plain English)

A slip sheet is a thin, flat sheet—made from kraft paper, corrugated fiberboard, laminated board, or plastic—that goes under a unit load.

Instead of building your load on a wooden pallet…

You build it on the slip sheet.

Then a forklift—typically with a push/pull attachment—grabs the slip sheet by its tab (the “lip”) and pulls the load onto the forks. It can also push the load off at destination.

That’s the whole system.

No pallet.
Less weight.
Less bulk.
Less wasted space.

And if you ship volume, those differences turn into real money.

Why Slip Sheets Make Sense in Chino Hills

Slip sheets are popular in high-volume logistics markets because they hit multiple cost centers at once.

1) You stop paying to ship wood

Pallets add weight that doesn’t make you money.

Slip sheets are dramatically lighter.

That can improve shipment efficiency depending on your freight structure.

2) You reclaim warehouse space

Pallet stacks take floor space and become clutter.

In the IE, space is money. Pallets eat space.

Slip sheets stack flat and stay out of the way.

3) You can load tighter

Pallets add bulk and waste trailer/container space.

Slip sheets reduce bulk and can help you load tighter in the right applications.

4) You reduce receiving friction

Damaged pallets, dirty pallets, and inconsistent pallets create receiving problems.

Slip sheets can help you ship cleaner and meet certain customer standards.

5) Export/container workflows

If you’re loading containers, pallets destroy capacity.

Slip sheets shine when every inch matters.

Who Slip Sheets Are Perfect For (And Who Should Skip Them)

Slip sheets are a strong fit when:

Slip sheets are usually not ideal when:

A supplier who tells you “slip sheets work for everyone” is selling you a fantasy.

Slip sheets work when the operation fits.

Slip Sheet Materials (Pick Wrong and You’ll Hate Slip Sheets)

Most slip sheet programs fail because someone chose the wrong material.

Here are the main options:

Kraft Paper Slip Sheets

Cost-effective and widely used.

Best for dry environments and moderate loads. Great for one-way shipments.

Corrugated Slip Sheets

More rigid than kraft.

Best when you need stiffness under the load due to footprint or stacking demands.

Laminated Slip Sheets

Paper-based with moisture resistance.

If humidity, condensation, or exposure is a factor, laminated prevents sagging and reduces tearing.

Plastic Slip Sheets

Durable, reusable, and strong.

Ideal for heavier loads, wet environments, or closed-loop systems where slip sheets return and get reused.

Plastic costs more upfront, but it can dominate long-term economics when reuse is real.

Material choice depends on load weight, environment, and handling.

We’ll help you choose the right one.

The Lip (Tab) Is Everything

Here’s what most buyers ignore until it fails:

The lip.

The lip is the tab your push/pull grabs.

If it’s too short, too weak, or oriented wrong, you’ll see:

Common lip setups:

We spec lips based on workflow:

Where do you stage loads?
What direction do you pull?
How do you load trailers/containers?
How does the customer receive it?

That’s how you prevent ripping and keep throughput high.

Push/Pull Attachments: The Real Question

Can slip sheets be used without push/pull attachments?

Sometimes—especially in certain container workflows.

But if you want slip sheets to run consistently at scale in a warehouse, push/pull attachments are usually the difference between success and chaos.

If you already have them, perfect.

If you don’t, we help you evaluate:

Then we spec the slip sheet accordingly.
