Security Guards in Victoria, BC
Victoria is the provincial capital, with government buildings, a busy downtown core, and tourism that runs year-round. Inner Harbour festivals, Government Street retail, and Wharf Street nightlife all bring crowds that need managing.
Downtown events draw thousands of people, the retail corridors deal with shoplifting every day, and there is always a construction project underway somewhere in the city centre. Each needs a different kind of coverage.
Onward Security sends licensed, insured guards to Victoria at the same flat rate we charge in Victoria. No travel surcharge, one rate that includes insurance and reporting, and the owner on the phone.
