When people hear the term secure cash courier services, most think of banks or financial institutions. But the truth is, these services are just as valuable for everyday businesses of all sizes.
Whether you’re running a retail store, hospitality venue, construction company, or corporate office, chances are you handle cash or other valuables at some point. Getting that money safely from A to B is where a secure courier service comes in.
At PGC Security, we’ve seen the risks that come with staff carrying cash to the bank themselves. We’ve also seen the relief business owners feel when they know that job is taken care of by professionals.
So, let’s look at what secure cash courier services are and why they’re a smart move for your business.
What is a secure cash courier service?
In simple terms, a secure cash courier service (sometimes called a cash in transit service) is a specialised transport option designed to securely move cash and valuables between your business and the bank.
Instead of asking a staff member to head to the bank with takings in a bag, a trained security team member collects and transports your cash in a locked, tamper-proof bag or box.
The service usually includes:
- Collection from your business premises
- Transport in a secure, insured vehicle
- Delivery to your nominated bank
- Change orders delivered directly to you (so you’ve always got the right float on hand)
PGC Security offers a discreet service. Our vehicles don’t stand out as “armoured cars”, they look just like any other courier vehicle. That makes it much harder for would-be thieves to spot, reducing your risk even further.
Why businesses use secure cash courier services
Every business is different, but here are the main reasons more businesses are choosing to outsource cash transport.
1. Reduced security risks
Carrying cash comes with risks. Theft, robbery, or even just accidents on the way to the bank are all possibilities.
With PGC Security’s cash courier services, your cash is:
- Collected by qualified, trained security staff
- Transported in a secure, insured vehicle
- Delivered straight to your bank without disruption
This reduces the exposure of your team to risk and ensures your business assets are protected.
2. Improved efficiency
Think about how much time your staff spend walking or driving to the bank, waiting in line, and returning to work. That’s time that could be spent serving customers, managing operations, or simply doing their actual job.
By outsourcing to a professional cash courier service, you keep your staff focused on their work while we take care of the banking. Many of our clients tell us this one change saved them hours each week.
3. Convenience
Running a business is busy enough without adding “bank run” to your to-do list. With a secure courier, we come to you.
You can schedule collections as often as you need; daily, weekly, or tailored to your cash flow. Change orders can be delivered at the same time, so you’ve always got the right money on site.
4. Staff safety
Sending an employee to the bank with cash puts them at risk. Even if nothing goes wrong, it’s a responsibility most staff would rather not take on.
Using a secure courier service takes that responsibility away from your team and places it in the hands of trained professionals who are equipped to manage the risk.
5. Peace of mind
Knowing that your cash is being handled by experts gives you one less thing to worry about. You can rest easy knowing it’s insured, secure, and in safe hands.

Secure courier services aren’t just for big companies. Businesses of all sizes and industries can benefit, including:
- Retailers – reduce staff risk and improve daily banking efficiency
