North Mississippi & West Alabama

Stop freight theft before the truck pulls in.

Security and carrier-vetting readiness reviews for small manufacturers and shippers. We check the booking desk and the loading dock, then hand you a scored report and a fix list.

The theft happens at a desk first.

CargoNet reported 2,646 confirmed cargo thefts in the US and Canada in 2025, with average losses near $274,000 per theft. Fraud at the booking stage is a growing part of it.

  • Fictitious pickup. A driver shows up using a real carrier's name for a load that carrier never booked.
  • Hijacked carrier identity. Thieves take over a real carrier's email or phone and accept your load.
  • Double brokering. A booked carrier quietly hands your load to an unvetted party.
  • Fake broker or load. Freight is tendered to a company that exists only to take it.
  • Mid-transit changes. An emailed change of address or contact reroutes the load.

Three reviews, fixed scope

01

Carrier-Vetting Process Review

We trace how freight is booked, who approves carriers, how insurance and authority are verified, and how drivers are released to. You get a scored report and a 30-day action list.

Remote or on-site

02

Dock-and-Yard Readiness Review

An on-site walk-through of gate, dock, yard, trailers, seals and paperwork, scored against TAPA-style practices as a benchmark. Photo-documented findings, prioritized fixes.

On-site, N. Mississippi & W. Alabama

03

Combined Review

Both reviews together, so the process controls and the physical controls are checked against each other.

Best coverage

Fixed-price quote after a short call. These are readiness reviews, not TAPA or C-TPAT certifications, and they are advisory only. We do not guarantee loss prevention.

Who does the review

A veteran with high-level military security experience and seven years directing logistics operations: equipment accountability, stock records, receiving and shipping documentation, and records audits. That covers both sides of the problem: the physical controls at your dock and the paperwork and booking process that thieves exploit.

  • Managed property accountability and loss investigations for equipment valued in the hundreds of thousands of dollars.
  • Verified received quantities against shipping documents to keep inventory records accurate.
  • Audited maintenance and equipment records for regulatory compliance.
  • Led and mentored a team of up to four.

On the security side, hands-on work in physical security, asset protection, access control and perimeter defense, plus site surveillance, area reconnaissance, perimeter sweeps, and vehicle patrols and fleet operations. The dock-and-yard review applies that same discipline to your site.
