  • Driver presents BOL/manifest, packing list, and appointment reference on arrival

  • Compliance with on-site safety and yard rules: PPE where required, posted speed limits, backing and chocking procedures, use of designated staging / check-in areas, and instructions from yard marshals or security

• Cargo Preparation

  • Pallets: Standard 40" × 48" GMA wooden pallets, 4-way access, Grade B or better (≈ 1,000 mm × 1,200 mm), in line with Amazon North America pallet guidelines used at Canadian FCs

  • Box & Pallet Labels:

    • Each carton requires a unique FBA Box ID label generated in Seller Central (.ca)

    • Each pallet requires four FBA pallet labels (one per side), applied outside the stretch wrap with barcodes unobstructed and fully scannable

  • Wrapping & Stability: Clear stretch wrap; stable, cubic loads with no overhang beyond pallet edges. Use corner boards, strapping, and layer pads where needed to maintain stability and protect cartons during transit and handling.

  • Floor-Loaded / FCL: Follow Amazon’s North America Floor Loading Policy. Keep SKUs clearly segregated, maintain safe stack heights, and load cartons so that unloading and scanning are efficient. Non-compliant or poorly prepared floor-loads may be delayed, require rework at the shipper’s cost, or be refused at receiving.

  • Slip Sheets: Only where explicitly allowed by current Amazon Canada guidance and confirmed in the Carrier Central appointment notes. Where such confirmation is not available, plan for conventional palletized unloading at YXX2.
