Tony LaRicci

Former National DC Manager - Colgate

We have been discussing some of our issues with Costco recently and it was noted how much of the issues we have had in the Pacific Northwest have dropped since introduction and full rollout of KICK STOPS.

Gideon Steed

West Coast Logistics Leader - Reckitt Benckiser

Our supervisor used the words “happy” and “amazed” to find that not a single pallet had shifted or spilled. Honestly, it’s hard for me to believe that these little devices can make much difference when we’re shipping 2,500-pound pallets — but so far the reports are good.

Greg Wright

Director of Manufacturing Operations - Master Wall Inc.

We started using KICK STOPS in December 2022 and have had very good success, including heavy use during our full pallet MVM promo with Costco. Our track record with Costco has been excellent. We have a long history of usage and can provide plenty of information as needed.

Craig Bond

Warehouse Manager - Highline Warren

Great news — big win for us getting the linkage to load quality and relationship lift aligning on a common best practice!

Director, Warehouse Operations

Warehouse Operations - Conagra

Everyone is pleased with the product and the ease of use. As far as we can tell, we haven’t had any damage issues reported with loads where we have utilized the KICK STOPS. So far so good — we hope to continue adding customer lanes that utilize these tools.

Operations Manager

Operations - Kenco

We really like using the KICK STOPS and so far, so good! No issues to report. For our warehouse, it’s the “best thing since sliced bread.”

Supply Chain Manager

Supply Chain - BASF Battery Materials North America

Just placed another order today. Makes it so much easier to load the trailers with only using the 4 KICK STOPS — and it works!

Jim Kellet

DC Manager, Jonesboro AR - Nice-Pak

We truly appreciate the support and training you and your team have provided since we adopted KICK STOPS into our loading requirements. We are grateful for your partnership!

We’ve heard them all.

Everything you need
to know.

Do KICK STOPS cause damage to the floor? +
No, the devices only grip the floor 1/16th of an inch — leaving zero damage to the trailer floors or pallets.
Our product is too heavy for your device. +
We meet and exceed DOT standards as every KICK STOPS device is tested to secure all minimum DOT weight requirements. DOT minimum g-force requirements: 8/10 forward, 5/10 backward and 5/10 laterally. We require a minimum of 4 KICK STOPS per load.
What are KICK STOPS made from? +
100% US recycled steel. Built tough, built sustainable, and built right here at home.
Are tools required for installation? +
No tools are required for installation or removal. We do offer an optional installation tool for added convenience. A fork truck or pallet jack is typically used for removal.
How many KICK STOPS are used per load? +
KICK STOPS are only placed on the last row of the trailer — typically 4 devices per load. That’s it. No need to secure every pallet row, which is a big part of why facilities save so much time.
How quickly can we get KICK STOPS? +
We can generally get KICK STOPS to you within a week — minus the occasional arctic blast. Ready to get started? Request a demo and we’ll get things moving.
