New. Launching Q1 2027.
Lane Stack
by MTC Group
A fictitious carrier can clear your dock with clean paperwork and a legitimate signature. One layer of security fails. Multiple layers do not.
Lane Stack is one freight security program, from carrier vetting and dock policy through embedded GPS, one GSOC and response on the lane, delivered within your existing security budget. Buyer side first.

Why our top competitors cannot match us.
We give security leaders half their day back.
Layers on the load, priced under the market leader. Agents on the desk, run from a GSOC we build for you, or run for you as a service. CapEx or OpEx, your call. The agents take the vetting, the 3 AM call, the claim file and the board deck. The leader runs strategy.
Services are included with the products you buy. Consulting is separate.
Priced under the market leader. The difference funds your next layer. We show you the number on the call.
The board slide that renews the budget, written for the CFO, with the one number they will ask about.
Carrier vetting, exception triage, incident reports and claims, run by agents that report to one screen. Your team sees the exception, not the noise.
Part of what you spend goes to the 501(c)(3)s of regional cargo theft councils and police foundations, to provide them the resources to combat cargo theft.
Multiple layers of protection. One accountable partner.
Every layer reports to one screen in real time, so a fictitious carrier has to defeat every layer at once.

I designed and ran this program at SAIA, CEVA Logistics and Crane Worldwide. The last one protected 240,000 high-value shipments a year. Lane Stack delivers it as one product, with one accountable point of contact.

Proof
At Crane Worldwide I secured 20,000 high-value shipments a month across global lanes. At SAIA I secured 171 terminals and held the guard budget at its 2012 level and redeployed the savings into layers. Running cross-docks and yards? See 3PL security. Need cameras on the same site?

Common questions
Cargo theft FAQs
What are the consequences of cargo theft?
The claim, a lost customer, a higher insurance renewal and the hours your team spends on the paperwork. The average loss per theft is $273,990, according to Verisk CargoNet.
How does GPS tracking help recover a stolen load?
An embedded tracker reports where the freight is, even after the trailer is swapped or the load is split. That gives law enforcement a live location instead of a last known one.
What does cargo claims prevention training cover?
Pickup verification, seal and dock procedures, and driver rules on the road, built to the TAPA standards and to your lanes.
What are the TAPA standards?
TAPA, the Transported Asset Protection Association, publishes the security standards the freight industry audits against: the Facility Security Requirements (FSR) for buildings and the Trucking Security Requirements (TSR) for freight on the road. We benchmark your program to both.
Where do we start?
One lane or one site. Bring the one that costs you the most to the Strategy Call. You leave with what it costs now, what changes, and when it pays back.

What is cargo theft prevention?
The layers that stop a load being taken and get it back when it is: carrier vetting before the tender is accepted, embedded GPS on the freight, live monitoring that escalates the real exception, and a claims process that recovers what insurance would otherwise absorb.
