Questions
Frequently asked questions
Do you provide overnight-only yard security?
Yes. Most yard security clients need coverage from close of business through the morning start, which is our most common shift configuration for this service.
Can guards verify trailer seals and log plate numbers?
Yes. Seal checks, plate logging, and access documentation are standard parts of our yard security post orders.
Outdoor yards often connect to indoor operations. Pair yard patrols with our warehouse security for dock-to-fence coverage, or leverage GPS-tracked mobile patrol vehicles to cover large-acreage sites efficiently.
