Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ): 5,000 Slip Sheets
đźšš Save BIG on Truckload orders!
If you’re shipping pallets in Roswell, GA, you’re close enough to major distribution lanes that shipping can feel “easy”…
Until it isn’t.
Because the moment volume increases, carriers tighten up, or your dock gets slammed… all the tiny inefficiencies you’ve been tolerating start charging you interest.
That’s when people realize:
They’re not just paying for product.
They’re paying for wood pallets, wasted trailer space, extra labor touches, and load damage that could’ve been prevented.
And that’s why smart operations in and around the Atlanta logistics ecosystem quietly use one of the simplest shipping advantages on Earth:
Slip sheets.
They’re boring.
They’re thin.
They don’t impress anybody in a meeting.
But they make freight cheaper, loads cleaner, and warehouses faster.
Which is what actually matters.
Slip sheets are thin, high-strength sheets—paperboard, corrugated, or plastic—that sit under your unit load so it can be pulled, pushed, and stabilized without the bulk of traditional wood pallets.
In plain English:
Instead of paying freight to move heavy wood and dead space…
You ship more product per load.
And you keep more margin.
Why slip sheets matter in Roswell (when Atlanta freight math touches everything)
Roswell sits in the gravitational field of Atlanta logistics. That’s a blessing… and a curse.
Blessing: access to lanes, carriers, distribution, customers.
Curse: everybody else has that access too—so the operations that win are the ones that ship more efficiently.
Slip sheets help because they remove the four most expensive forms of waste in shipping:
1) Wasted cube
Pallets add height and bulk. Bulk means fewer units per trailer or container.
Slip sheets keep loads lean, which can increase units per shipment.
2) Dead weight
Wood pallets weigh a lot at scale. You pay to move them.
Slip sheets weigh a fraction.
3) Too many touches
Every time a load gets re-wrapped, re-stacked, or “fixed,” you pay in labor and lost throughput.
Slip sheets help stabilize and standardize load builds when spec’d correctly.
4) Damage and customer headaches
Loads that shift become problems: claims, returns, replacements, angry calls.
Stable loads arrive cleaner.
Slip sheets don’t just save pennies.
They stop dollars from leaking out of your operation.
Who buys slip sheets in Roswell, GA?
If your facility ships palletized product at volume, slip sheets are relevant.
Common buyer types include:

Regional distributors feeding lanes across the Southeast
-
Retail distribution where cost per unit shipped matters

Paperboard vs corrugated vs plastic slip sheets (the choice that determines performance)
Slip sheets aren’t one product. They’re a category.
Material selection determines durability, stability, and whether your team loves or hates them.
Paperboard / Solid Fiber Slip Sheets
Strong and economical for dry environments and standard carton shipments. Great when you want performance without overpaying.
Corrugated Slip Sheets
Adds rigidity and a bit of cushioning. Useful for lighter loads, layer separation, or when you want a stiffer feel.
Plastic Slip Sheets
Durable and moisture-resistant. Great for reuse, humidity exposure, cold storage, or repeat handling where consistent performance matters.
In Georgia, humidity can be a real factor depending on your facility and how freight is staged. The right material keeps performance consistent even when conditions aren’t perfect.
The lip: the tiny detail that makes slip sheets “work”
If you’re using push/pull attachments—or planning to—then lip configuration is everything.
The lip is what the equipment grabs to pull the load.
Wrong lip?
-
slipping
-
tearing
-
slow handling
-
frustrated operators
-
downtime
And then someone says, “Slip sheets don’t work here.”
No. The spec didn’t work.
Common configurations:
-
Single lip (one-direction handling)
-
Two lips (adjacent or opposite for flexibility)
-
Opposite lips (clean lane workflows)
-
Four-way lips (maximum handling options)
Key details that matter:
-
lip length
-
lip reinforcement
-
lip direction relative to dock flow
-
load weight and friction profile
Custom Packaging Products helps you get this right so slip sheets become a permanent advantage—not a failed trial.
How slip sheets reduce total cost (not just packaging cost)
Most companies focus on what they pay for packaging.
Smart companies focus on what they pay to ship product.
Slip sheets reduce total cost across:
Freight
More product per load lowers cost per unit shipped.
Labor
Fewer touches and less rework improves throughput.
Damage
Stable loads reduce claims, replacements, and customer problems.
Pallet spend
Less dependency reduces pallet replacement and pallet loss.
This is how a “simple sheet” becomes a margin lever.
