shrink wrapped to the pallet / pallets.
However, due to the length of some items, we are not able to put loose items on a pallet. All cartons will have a ship
label attached identifying route, stop, and customer. Items not on pallets will be referred to as loose items on the Bill
of Lading. The Bill of Lading will be marked with the number of pallets and loose items delivered. When checking in,
you should compare pallets and loose items received to what is marked on the Bill of Lading.
