    • Each pallet requires four FBA pallet labels (one per side), applied on the outside of the stretch wrap, upright and fully scannable

  • Wrapping & Stability:

    • Wrap pallets with clear stretch film so labels remain visible and unobstructed

    • No product overhang beyond the pallet footprint

    • Stack cartons evenly with heavier units at the bottom; use corner boards and strapping/banding where needed to maintain stability during transit and unloading

  • Floor-Loaded / FCL:

    • Floor-loaded trailers and containers must follow Amazon’s Floor Loading Policy, including limits on stack height, carton weight, and mixed-SKU loading

    • Clearly describe any floor-loaded inbound in your Carrier Central booking so ABE8 can plan labor and unloading equipment

  • Slip Sheets:

    • Only use slip sheets where permitted by Amazon guidance and explicitly confirmed in your appointment notes; otherwise plan for standard palletized unloading
