Holiday Awareness - Shippers, manufacturers and transportation companies must remain aware of the increased security risks during the upcoming Labor Day weekend.
Holidays can cause long delays for drivers attempting to deliver loads. These delays will increase the risk to drivers and loads in-transit by leaving them vulnerable for longer periods of time.
FreightWatch and other cargo theft tracking organizations have seen continuing cargo theft activity, specifically targeting electronics, pharmaceuticals and other high end products. Shippers of these commodities in particular should avoid putting any loads on the road that will not travel directly to their destination.
FreightWatch recommends drivers remain vigilant and maintain communication with their dispatch when stopping at high risk areas such as truck stops and rest areas. Loads should be staged at secure company yards when ever possible.
For warehousing operations, ensure your security alarm systems are functioning properly. Freight Watch also recommends the following:
Treaty all alarm trouble signal as an intrusion alarm
Do not rely on a backup (cellular/radio) system
If primary alarm fails, assign security officer to patrol facility exterior
