Warehouse & Industrial Security Guards in Chicagoland

Valle Services provides warehouse security guards in Chicago and all suburbs for distribution centers, manufacturing plants, truck yards and industrial parks. With 45 years in business, we put trained guards where your freight, people and equipment need protection, 24/7. Cook County investigators are now focused on cargo theft; read what that means for yards and docks in our post on cargo theft in Cook County.

Warehouse Security Guards for Chicago Distribution Centers

  • Gate and guard shack: truck check-in and check-out, driver ID, seal and trailer number logs
  • Dock and yard patrols: loading dock security, trailer checks and perimeter rounds, day or night
  • Cargo theft prevention: a visible guard deters trailer, pallet and product theft
  • Access control: visitors, contractors and employee entrances
  • Fire watch: logged patrols when your sprinkler or fire alarm system is down

Every guard keeps a written daily activity report of patrols, trucks, visitors and incidents, so your managers always know what happened on each shift. We build each post around your site, your shift times and your rules, then adjust as your needs change, whether that is peak season, a new building or a sudden problem.

Industrial Security Guards for Plants and Tough Situations

Manufacturing plant security goes beyond the front gate. Our industrial security guards also handle the moments that can turn volatile:

Our team is led by Director of Security Hector Garcia, former Soldier Field Director of Security (1992–2005).

High-Value Cargo Escort & Merchandise Protection

When the load is worth more than the truck, a guard at the dock is not enough. Valle Services protects high-value merchandise on site and on the road.

  • High-value merchandise protection: guards on site while electronics, watches, jewelry and other high-end goods are received, staged and loaded.
  • Cargo escort for tractor-trailers: a 2-person team in an unmarked vehicle follows your truck from pickup to delivery and stays in contact with the driver.
  • Example: a trailer of Rolex watches leaves Kansas, and our 2-person team follows it the whole way.
  • Proven: we have escorted Apple phone shipments.
