Warehousing and logistics security
A single break-in or run of stock losses at a distribution site can stall a supply chain for days and put customer confidence at risk. Warehouses hold the value where it's most visible. From distribution centres and freight forwarding depots to cold chain facilities and 3PL yards across Aotearoa, the pattern is the same: pallets ready to ship, forklifts left in the bay, electronics in the cage, and a perimeter that goes quiet between knock-off and the first driver in the morning. Savvy provides the cover layer that keeps your facility secure outside operating hours, with gatehouse officers checking trucks in and out, mobile patrols sweeping the yard overnight, and alarm response when motion or door triggers fire. We work the way logistics works, fitting into your shift change, your driver flow, and your reporting line.
What is at risk
What walks off the yard
A distribution site holds high volumes of stock and freight in constant movement, and a single load can be worth more than the building it sits in. Wide yards, multiple access points and shift changes give intruders room to work.
Exposure is highest after hours and at weekends, when the yard is quiet and loads sit waiting to move.
- Stock and palletscartons, consumer goods, high-value lines in the racks
- Freight and containersloaded trailers, sea containers, goods staged on the dock
- Forklifts and equipmentreach trucks, pallet jacks, charging bays
- Fuel and copperdiesel, battery banks, wiring and cabling

Why Savvy
Why logistics sites choose Savvy
Warehouses run on a tight clock. Trucks come and go around the shift change, high-value stock sits in the cage overnight, and the perimeter quiets down the moment the last driver leaves. Savvy's warehouse cover plugs into your operations instead of running alongside them.
- 01 Continuous gatehouse presence, so only authorised people and vehicles get on site.
- 02 Patrol cover across wide yards and long fence lines, not just the front gate.
- 03 Eyes on the dock and compound, where freight and stock are most exposed.
- 04 Immediate response to alarms and yard incidents, with a licensed officer acting on what's triggered.
- 05 Documented patrols, gate logs and incident reports that satisfy insurance, customs and audit requirements.
