Logistics & Transport Security Services

Protect your supply chain with expert logistics security services designed to safeguard warehouses, transport hubs, and goods in transit.

End-to-End Protection Across the Supply Chain

The logistics sector faces constant security risks—from cargo theft and fuel siphoning to unauthorised access at distribution centres. Without proper protection, delays and losses can severely impact your operations.

At Cardinal Security, we offer a full range of logistics security services to keep your supply chain running smoothly and securely. Our officers are trained to protect high-value freight, manage access control, and deter both external and internal threats through visible presence and rapid response.

Whether you operate a warehouse, depot, or fleet, we tailor our coverage to your routes, schedules, and risk profile.

Warehouse & Transport Hub Security Specialists

Warehouses and fulfilment centres are high-traffic environments where efficiency must go hand-in-hand with tight security protocols.

Our logistics security officers carry out regular patrols, monitor CCTV systems, check vehicle loads, verify staff and visitor credentials, and ensure all stock is protected from theft or damage.

We also provide mobile patrols and keyholding for remote storage sites, as well as escort services for high-risk cargo deliveries—offering a comprehensive solution that keeps your assets secure at every stage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What sites can you secure in the logistics sector?

We provide security for a wide range of logistics environments including warehouses, distribution centres, cross-docking facilities, and transport depots. Whether you’re operating a single site or multiple hubs across the UK, we can deploy trained officers who understand the fast-paced nature of logistics operations and are skilled at securing both assets and access points.

How do you protect goods in transit?

Our in-transit security services include escort vehicles, GPS-monitored support, and scheduled check-ins to ensure the safety of valuable cargo on the road. Officers are trained to detect potential threats, respond to incidents en route, and work alongside drivers to keep deliveries secure from start to finish—especially on high-risk routes.

Can your officers manage access control at depots?

Yes. Our guards are experienced in controlling vehicle and personnel access at busy depots and logistics centres. They verify driver ID, inspect vehicle contents, monitor delivery logs, and maintain a secure perimeter—all while working in coordination with your existing warehouse or yard teams to avoid disruption.

Do you offer out-of-hours warehouse security?

We do. Cardinal Security provides full out-of-hours coverage to protect your warehouse during vulnerable periods such as evenings, weekends, and holidays. Services include manned guarding, mobile patrols, and CCTV monitoring to deter intruders and prevent theft or vandalism when staff are off-site.

How do you handle large, multi-site logistics operations?

We’re equipped to deliver consistent security across multiple locations, including national rollouts. We assign dedicated account managers, create bespoke staffing plans, and provide real-time reporting so that you have complete oversight and control of your logistics security network—no matter how complex the operation.
