Working with the Government

Schafer Logistics is actively experienced in handling various types of commodities for government agencies. Over the last 6 years we have warehoused over 250,000 square feet of government merchandise for different government agencies. Our experience ranges from handling general cargo, personal effects, vehicles of all types, high value merchandise such as antiques and musical instruments to specialized handling projects such as VLA (very large array) radio telescopes.

Schafer Logistics operates two FTZ (Foreign Trade Zone) sites, #202-12A and #202-15. One of the main benefits of warehousing within an FTZ is that it requires higher safety and security standards due to customs strict security requirements. In order to obtain certification security must be higher than industry standards, including inventory control, background checks, double check and verification systems.

Some of our additional security measures include CCTV cameras located at all dock doors, uniformed security guards at all entrance and exit gates, fully fenced barbed wire facilities, and an FTZ required check in, identified, badged, and escorted only procedure for all visitors.
