Nothing is a sure fire way not to slip and slide while loading when wet or frosty . my goose neck has diamond plater with 1 inch channel for grippers sorta ok for rubber tires but can be fun with something with steel tacks . Rough sawed oak does ok till it is frozen . The treated pine is slippery when wet and frozen . Yep i have SIDE UNLOADED several times in my life , First time when i was a pup loading a 22B Bucyers one brisk frosty morning . Back in those days we did not have Detach low boys and it was load over the side , set down a sires of blocks and climb up on and spin it around .

Almost had it turned when she slid and off the side she went with the cab door on the down hill side . Yea that was fun wright down on the street half on half off . No down pressure all cable and wiggling it around to drop it off and try again now from the street , had a dozer come off a low boy and almost go all the way over once again fun times getting it the rest of the way off with out killing myself, had my S/MTA slide off my goose neck while loading one night after a tractor pull , had a Gleaner E 3 darn near come all the way off when the one ramp kicked out. What helps the most is being careful as you can and have a sealed five gallon bucket of play sand to dust the areas when wet or frosty, don't take much a couple cup fulls throwen across the tail and deck .
