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.
To unload freight with a slip sheet, first position a slip sheet attachment on the forklift or use a compatible attachment on the pallet jack. Align the slip sheet with the load and insert the fork or attachment underneath the slip sheet. Carefully lift and pull the slip sheet to slide the load off onto the designated unloading area, ensuring stability throughout the process. Finally, remove the slip sheet from the load and store it appropriately for future use.

To unload freight on slip sheets, a specialized slip sheet attachment is required, which can be used with a forklift or pallet jack. The attachment allows the forklift to grasp the slip sheet directly, ensuring safe and efficient handling. Additionally, a walkie stacker or a slip sheet handler can also be utilized for unloading in environments where maneuverability is essential. This equipment helps minimize the risk of damage to goods and enhances the efficiency of the unloading process.
To unload a trailer with slip sheets, a slip sheet handler or a specialized forklift equipped with a slip sheet attachment is ideal. These machines can efficiently lift and transport products that are placed on slip sheets without the need for pallets. For trailers with traditional pallets, a standard forklift is typically used for unloading.
