Protect warehouses, distribution centers, and logistics facilities from theft and unauthorized access.
Warehouse Security in Dallas: Local Market Overview
Dallas-Fort Worth is the nation's premier inland distribution hub, a position anchored by its central geography, unmatched highway network, and status as one of the fastest-growing metros in the country. DFW International Airport's cargo facility handles over a million metric tons of freight annually, and the surrounding Alliance, Southlake, and North Fort Worth industrial corridors have become addresses of choice for Amazon, Walmart, and virtually every major 3PL in North America. The Great Southwest Industrial District, Garland, and Mesquite serve as the eastern anchors of the metroplex's freight economy. Texas DPS Level II licensing is required for all security officers, and the sheer volume of freight moving through DFW — by air, rail, and truck — creates a broad and persistent demand for professional warehouse security.
The DFW Metroplex is the third-largest distribution market in the United States, with over 800 million square feet of industrial inventory. DFW International Airport is a top-five U.S. cargo airport, with FedEx, UPS, and DHL all maintaining significant air cargo operations. The Alliance corridor in north Fort Worth hosts one of the most concentrated logistics parks in the country, anchored by AllianceTexas and served by the BNSF intermodal terminal. Dallas's central highway nexus — where I-20, I-30, I-35, and I-45 converge — makes it a natural cross-country freight staging point.
DFW International Airport ranks among the top five U.S. airports for air cargo by tonnage, handling over 1 million metric tons annually — making it a critical node in national and international supply chains.

Common Questions About Warehouse Security in Dallas
What licensing do Texas security guards need to work at a Dallas warehouse?
Texas requires a DPS Level II Security Officer license for unarmed guards and a Level III license for armed officers. All Calvis guards in the Dallas-Fort Worth area hold valid Texas DPS credentials and have completed the required pre-assignment and annual training hours. We maintain compliance records for all deployed personnel.
We need security at our BNSF-adjacent distribution center in Fort Worth. Can guards help with rail siding access?
Yes. For rail-served facilities, Calvis can assign guards trained in gate and siding access management, including tracking inbound rail car deliveries and managing driver access during switching operations. We coordinate your security posture with your freight operations to minimize disruption while maintaining strict access control.
Our DFW distribution center operates three shifts and needs coverage on all of them. What does a monthly contract look like?
Calvis monthly contracts for 24/7 operations typically include assigned guards for each shift rotation, a dedicated account manager who monitors daily coverage, and a guaranteed fill rate for all scheduled posts. For three-shift operations in DFW, we recommend establishing a core guard team that rotates across shifts to maintain facility familiarity while meeting labor law rest requirements.
