While our main office is based in Ipswich, Suffolk, we have expanded significantly in recent years and can now serve more areas than ever.

Experienced cash-in-transit companies like ours employ efficient security measures, robust training, and strategic planning to prevent robberies during money transport. Hiring dedicated cash transit companies to transport your cash ensures that professionals take appropriate measures while keeping your employees safe. A crucial part of cash-in-transit to prevent a robbery is carefully planning the route. We choose unpredictable paths, avoid high-risk areas, and vary routes and schedules to prevent organised criminals from targeting us. Cash-in-transit vehicles are typically equipped with advanced security measures, including GPS tracking for real-time monitoring, while the cash is securely stored in the van.
We recruit only the best cash-in-transit guards who are fully vetted and qualified. Our guards are trained in conflict resolution, situational awareness, and emergency protocols, ensuring they follow proper procedures to remain calm under pressure and keep your money safe. The guards regularly communicate with a 24/7 control room to provide updates on cash collection and delivery and to notify them of any suspicious activity. In many scenarios, the visibility of uniformed guards and marked vehicles can be enough to put off potential criminals. Cash-in-transit specialists maintain strong working relationships with emergency services, including local police forces, to facilitate the exchange of information about suspicious activity or high-risk situations, ensuring a prompt response when needed.
We conduct regular audits to assess vulnerabilities and implement improvements, helping us adapt to the ever-changing threat landscape and avoid complacency. We are also happy to educate our clients about additional security measures when handling and transporting cash, advising them on how to enhance their role beyond our cash-in-transit responsibilities.
A successful cash-in-transit security service is only possible with an outstanding fleet of vehicles. We know it’s vital to provide a robust, quick and secure operation, which is why our vehicles are essential members of the Stage Security team. We have an extensive vehicle fleet, and all our vans and cars are fully electric, helping us reach our goal of becoming carbon-neutral. The fleet plays a vital role in all of our security services. With cash-in-transit, our vehicles enable trained guards to quickly respond to sites, collect cash, and securely store it on board. The cash is then safely delivered to its destination as soon as possible.
Stage Security’s vehicles provide several benefits to our customers, including fast, robust response times. As they are fully electric, we are helping the environment by carrying out our duties and keeping you secure without damaging the earth we live on. For businesses with eco-friendly policies, we know partnering with a company that shares the same principles is essential. We will reduce your responsibility and burden so that cash is collected and delivered safely, in line with your requirements.
