What security does a warehouse or distribution center need?

A Florida warehouse or distribution center typically needs gatehouse access control, driver and trailer logging, seal verification at the dock, randomized yard patrol, and internal-theft deterrence at employee exits. Cargo theft in Florida concentrates on staged trailers left in unmonitored yards over weekends.

The yard is the weak point

Most cargo loss happens to loaded trailers sitting in the yard, not inside the building. Seal checks at arrival and departure, plus randomized yard sweeps, close the largest gap.

Can officers verify trailer seals?
Yes. Seal verification, driver identity logging, and BOL cross-checks are standard post-order items for Ranger warehouse posts.
