Our 2DLCs are ITAR compliant and are able to host military personnel security teams for highly controlled goods. We have a SCEC approved safe installed for any items requiring additional security.
Our modern fleet of trucks and secure vans are headquartered at our Depth Defence Logistics Centres so moving your cargo could not be easier. Forklifts and all required material handling equipment is onsite.
We have large high bay secure warehouses at all 2DLCs that are fully fenced with sealed yards for safe storage of any cargo or vehicles.
