Lids Packaging Guidelines

Packing slips are mandatory for all shipments. They should be easily visible on the front of the first pallet or lead carton located in a Packing Slip envelope. A valid Lids SKU must appear on the Packing Slip. An electronic copy of the Packing Slip should also be provided to the Lids Logistics Department via email when routing has been requested or by attaching it to the routing request form.
