Secure Evidence Transportation and Logistics Support

SafeStore USA provides dedicated trucks to manage evidence transportation exclusively for law enforcement agencies. We transport physical evidence directly from your property room to our restricted-access warehouse facilities. From the moment we pick up your property until we return it to you, we keep your materials secure and protect their integrity long-term.

Our team of experts takes great care to handle your evidence properly. We ensure that our storage and transport procedures meet all strict requirements, upholding International Association for Property and Evidence (IAPE) policies and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) guidance.

How Do We Manage Secure Evidence Transportation?

We manage secure evidence transportation by utilizing dedicated trucks that are securely locked with no intermediate stops between pick-up and delivery. Direct transport from your premises to our secure facilities minimizes transit time and prevents any risk of cross-contamination.

Transporting evidence in criminal investigations requires maintaining absolute integrity. Our experts take great care to handle your evidence properly by preserving strict chain of custody and upholding IAPE policies & procedures and NIST guidance. Our team applies secure transportation methods and ensures the strict separation of evidence from different investigations during transit. To support these practices, our personnel follow highly specific handling requirements designed for different types of sensitive material:

Fragile Materials: Fragile items are securely braced during transport to prevent damage from vehicle movement.

Electronic Equipment: Digital devices and related technology are transported in anti-static bags to prevent data loss.

Ballistics: Firearms must be shipped unloaded and firmly secured to prevent physical movement.

Biological Property: Biological evidence requires breathable packaging to prevent mold, while temperature control is maintained for perishable evidence during transport.

Packaging Security: Tamper-evident seals are utilized on all evidence packaging to prevent contamination, degradation and loss.

What Are Our Evidence Management and Privacy Procedures?

Our evidence management procedures begin the moment your property arrives at our warehouse by assigning a specific ID and warehouse location number to each item or pallet. We establish clear photographs and photo documentation for your records, supported by 24/7 remote surveillance of your stored physical evidence.

Your contents remain confidential and secure with SafeStore USA. Physical evidence is stored in labeled boxes before and after transport, and our internal management systems meet strict security standards to prevent unauthorized access. We utilize automated identification technologies to improve evidence management efficiency. Furthermore, we continually assess new tools and resources, noting how technologies like RFID and blockchain can provide tamper-proof tracking for future storage programs.
