Valle Services provides unarmed and armed security guards in Chicago Heights, IL for manufacturing plants, rail-served warehouses, truck terminals and industrial sites. With 45 years in business, we staff short-term, seasonal and ongoing posts in Chicago Heights, the south suburbs and across Chicago and all suburbs.
Chicago Heights has long been an industrial town, and it is home to Ford’s Chicago Stamping Plant on Lincoln Highway. Industry is concentrated along Lincoln Highway (U.S. 30), State Street and Route 394, with I-57 on the west side of town and Union Pacific and Canadian National rail lines running through it.
The Lincoln Highway Industrial Corridor, which runs through Chicago Heights, Ford Heights and Sauk Village, has about 1,000 acres on nine sites marked for industrial development, according to Cook County. That means big plants, rail spurs, truck terminals, large open lots and new projects all in the same area, and each one needs a different kind of security.
Our warehouse and industrial security guards cover plant gates, rail and truck yards and open lots, and they keep a written log of every truck, railcar and visitor on their shift.
Many Chicago Heights sites are well served by unarmed security guards. We provide armed guards and off-duty police officers for assignments that call for armed coverage, and we will tell you honestly which level fits your site.
Large sites with long fence lines, empty buildings waiting for a new tenant and land being cleared for new projects all need someone watching them after dark. Our guards work overnight shifts and patrol rounds that check fence lines, gates, yards and doors, and every shift ends with a written daily report. For smaller sites, we can arrange shared guards who cover more than one property, depending on how close they are to each other.
For new industrial projects in the corridor, we provide construction site security, with contractor check-in, patrols of materials and equipment, and coverage when the crews go home.
Our gatehouse guards check badges, drivers and paperwork and keep strangers out of your yard. If your sprinkler system or fire alarm is out of service, or you are doing hot work in an older building, we provide fire watch guards who make rounds and keep the required log.
We also cover Steger, Ford Heights, Sauk Village, Park Forest, Glenwood and the rest of the south suburbs. See our Chicago security guard company page for the city, and our page for security guards in Joliet and Bolingbrook for Will County’s warehouse corridors. You can find every town we cover on our Areas We Serve page.
