Cargo & Logistics Security Guards in Miami

Hernandez Elite Guardians LLC provides licensed unarmed logistics security guards for trucking companies, freight terminals, container and trailer yards, cross-dock facilities and freight forwarders in Miami-Dade and Broward County. Our officers work at gates and in yards, where the main concern is vehicles coming and going, not the inside of a building.

A truck can arrive at 4 a.m. and a driver may not know anyone on site. We build coverage around your dispatch schedule, peak traffic hours and written gate procedures, so every vehicle and driver is handled the way you require.

Gate and Yard Security for Trucking Operations

On a logistics site, the gate is where most problems start or are prevented. Our officers keep traffic organized at truck entrances, record who and what enters and leaves, and keep your dispatch or yard manager informed.

What an Officer Does at a Truck Gate

Greet the driver and check the arrival against your appointment or dispatch list.
Record the driver’s name, company, truck and trailer or container numbers, and arrival time, following your gate log procedures.
Direct the driver to the area you designate.
Record the departure time when the vehicle leaves.
Report anything that does not match your list to dispatch or management.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are your security officers armed?

No. Our officers are licensed unarmed security officers. They observe, document and report, and contact your management or emergency services when needed.

How is this different from warehouse security?

Logistics security focuses on gates, yards and vehicle traffic. Warehouse security focuses on the building, inventory areas and employees. Many sites need both, and we can plan them together.

Do officers transport cargo?

No. Officers observe, document and report. They do not transport, load or unload cargo.

Is overnight coverage available?

Yes, we staff day, overnight and weekend posts. We confirm availability for your facility when we scope the assignment.
