Transport Security Guards and Services
Whether you run a road haulage company in Devon, a production facility in Somerset or a warehouse in Dorset, transport security is more important than ever. Criminals see cargo transport as one of the more vulnerable aspects of the supply chain. Our transport security guards and services step into this criminal cycle with a range of protective measures for your cargo, vehicles and drivers, including:
- Remote monitoring and tracking
- Route planning and risk assessment
- Onboard security guards and escort vehicles
- Load and unload supervision
- Parking and rest stop security
Transport Security: How it Works
Security Escorting
Transporting high-value or sensitive cargo at today’s increased risk levels calls for security measures that have been proven to work. One of the most effective is to have trained and experienced security guards escort it from depot to destination. This might be onboard the delivery vehicle or in a marked or unmarked escorting vehicle.
Remote Monitoring
Technology has a lot to offer when it comes to monitoring and tracking the progress of an important delivery. From GPS location tracking to RFID tagging and remote CCTV monitoring. Our transport security team can produce a high-tech transport security strategy that ensures your delivery vehicles are constantly monitored at every stage of the journey.
Planning Services
Preparation is key to a successful outcome. Identifying a preferred route and the key risks involved. Timing the journey and planning where and when to take rest stops. When a transport vehicle is stationary, it is at its most vulnerable, but with the right security strategy in place, the driver, the cargo and the vehicle remain protected from criminal activity.

Transport Security: New Threats
While high-value and sensitive loads have always been a target for criminals, since the start of the cost of living crisis, some crimes that affect the transport industry have changed a lot, and security contractors are having to adapt to newer threats like:
- Rising incidents of fuel theft.
- Theft in transit of lower-value essential items like food and drink has increased, resulting in a wider range of (including smaller) delivery vehicles being targeted by organised gangs.
- Insider-assisted theft in the supply chain is becoming more common due to downward pressure on wages and lower staffing levels.
- The use of overt physical threat and force has increased.
- Some criminals are boarding moving vehicles.
