Client Scenario
3PL Distribution Centre — Mississauga
A third-party logistics operator along the 401 corridor was losing inventory to trailer-seal tampering and unauthorised dock access during overnight shifts. DW Security placed two guards at the loading bay gate with a bill-of-lading verification protocol and added randomised yard patrols between midnight and 5 AM.
Result: Shrinkage dropped 45% in the first 90 days. The operator expanded coverage to a second Brampton facility.
Threat reduction
Threats we help prevent
- Internal and external theft, including trailer and cargo theft
- Unauthorized dock access and tailgating during shift changes
- After-hours break-ins targeting high-value inventory zones
- Yard intrusions and unauthorized vehicle access
- Inventory shrinkage from undocumented access
Operations
How guards support your operations
Our guards integrate into your facility's workflow without disrupting shipping and receiving. Typical responsibilities include badge and ID verification at entry points, driver documentation checks at loading docks, seal verification on outbound trailers, scheduled yard patrols between trailer rows, and cage or high-value area access logging. During peak periods like seasonal surges or inventory counts, we can scale staffing up with temporary guards who receive the same site orientation as your regular team.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Can your guards handle 24/7, multi-shift operations?
Yes. We staff around the clock with guards experienced in industrial and logistics environments, including overnight and weekend coverage.
How do you document incidents and inventory discrepancies?
Guards submit written incident reports within 2 hours of any occurrence, with timestamp photo evidence. Shift summaries are provided at the end of every shift.
Do you provide bilingual guards?
We accommodate language requirements where possible. Let us know your needs during the scoping process and we will match accordingly.
Extend your coverage outdoors with our yard security program for staging areas and trailer lots, or add overnight mobile patrol to supplement static dock guards across multiple facilities.
