A load on the truck or container using slipsheets instead of pallets. In some cases the edge of the slipsheet can be "grabbed" by a special attachment on the forklift and pulled onto the forks. Sometimes they will use slipsheets to allow for more usable room for the freight, other times they use slipsheets because of issues with wood or the cost of plastic pallets.

What is Forklift with Slip Sheet Attachment?
To begin answering the question, lets first answer- What is a slip sheet and when is it used. A slip sheet was the alternative to pallets, used by China and other Asian countries when certain wood packaging was banned for import into the US due to certain bugs. The slip sheet is a thin sheet of cardboard, more like thick craft paper, that is placed underneath a stack of cartons and then shrinkwrapped. The slip sheet extends about 6 inches past the stack of cartons to allow for grabbing by the slipsheet attachment of the forklift. The slip sheet attachment is like a small clamp to grab the lip of the slip sheet and then pulls the slip sheet onto the forklift blades. Another alternative to the slipsheet attachment is the side clamper.
