If you’re in Medford, Oregon and you’re searching for slip sheets… you’re not doing it because you like “packaging.”

You’re doing it because pallets are quietly stealing from you.

Not in one big dramatic bill that makes you mad.

In a hundred little ways that add up until somebody finally says, “Why is our shipping cost per unit so high?”

That’s the pallet tax.

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

And the moment you start shipping real volume, that tax compounds fast.

Slip sheets are one of the few moves you can make that attacks this waste 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 congestion, and forklift operators who look at you like you just made their job harder on purpose.

Slip sheets aren’t the problem.

Bad specs are the problem.

Let’s get practical.

Medford sits in a region where a lot of product moves: food and beverage, agriculture, manufacturing, building products, distribution, and suppliers feeding larger West Coast lanes. And when you’re moving product across states (or coast-to-coast), packaging efficiency isn’t a “nice to have.”

It’s profit.

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 concept.

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

And if you ship volume, those differences add up fast.

Why Slip Sheets Make Sense in Medford

Slip sheets are popular with volume shippers because they hit multiple cost centers at once.

1) You stop paying to ship wood

Pallets add weight that doesn’t increase revenue.

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.

Slip sheets stack flat and stay out of the way.

3) You can load tighter

Pallets add bulk and waste space in trailers and containers.

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 cause 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 can 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 fairy tale.

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 picked 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 environmental 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.
