Frequently asked questions

What is armored transport / cash-in-transit?

Armored transport, or cash-in-transit (CIT), is the secure movement of cash, coin, checks and other high-value items between a business, its bank and its ATMs by armed crews in hardened vehicles — the category of Brink's, Loomis, GardaWorld and many regional operators. Common services include scheduled deposit pickups, ATM servicing, change orders and vault transfers, all under a documented, insured chain of custody. In Las Vegas, the final cost also depends on local context — such as the strip's casinos and resorts — so it pays to request a tailored proposal and compare several licensed providers.

Is armored transport a licensed service?

Yes. Some states regulate it specifically — Texas and New York, for example, license Armored Car Companies or carriers directly — while in others it's provided by firms operating under an armed-guard / Private Patrol Operator license with the appropriate firearm permits. Either way the crews are licensed, armed and insured. When hiring, confirm the correct state license and, critically, the cargo and liability insurance limit covered per trip. When hiring in Las Vegas, confirm the provider knows the local environment and challenges such as casino surveillance and gaming-floor security.

What license do security guards in Las Vegas need?

Nevada regulates private security through the Private Investigators Licensing Board (PILB), not a California-style guard card: a security guard or patrol company must hold a Private Patrol Officer (PPO) license from the PILB (investigative firms hold a separate Private Investigator license, and the same board also licenses process servers, polygraph examiners and dog handlers). Individual officers must register and be work-carded under a licensed PPO. Nevada's firearm rules are relatively permissive, so armed posts are common — but an armed officer must complete the PILB's firearm registration and qualification. Always confirm the company's PPO license and that its officers are registered before hiring.

What security do the Strip's casinos and resorts need?

The Strip's casinos and resorts drive the deepest gaming-security market in the country: casino surveillance and gaming-floor officers, uniformed hospitality and access-control posts, and round-the-clock coverage across hotels, retail and back-of-house. Resorts run both armed and unarmed officers under PILB registration, and this is highly public-facing work where de-escalation and guest service matter as much as deterrence. Look for a PPO-licensed provider with real gaming and hospitality experience.

Security licensing requirements in Nevada

Private security in Nevada is licensed at the state level by the State of Nevada Private Investigators Licensing Board. A legitimate company operating in Las Vegas holds a Private Patrol Officer licence — the business-level licence for a company furnishing watchmen, guards, patrol officers or bodyguards to others, which means it has cleared Nevada PILB's ownership, background-check and insurance requirements. Ask for that license number in writing and verify it yourself — a certificate on the wall tells you nothing about current standing, since a license can be suspended or revoked.

Guard credential: a PILB work card, registering the guard as an employee of a licensed agency; no statewide pre-licensing classroom-hour requirement for an unarmed work card appears on a PILB source; the board issues a study guide and processes the card through the employing licensee
Armed officers: an armed work card (an armed endorsement on the PILB work card); eight hours of training and instruction on carrying, handling and using a firearm safely, including a written exam passed at 75% or better, plus a minimum of five hours of firing-range instruction qualifying with the same type and calibre carried on duty; requalification every six months · Minimum age 21
Insurance: a policy of insurance for protection against liability to third persons with limits of not less than $200,000, or proof of sufficient means to self-insure; the licence is automatically suspended ten days after notice that the insurance is not in effect
Renewal: Licenses renew annual — licences and pocket cards expire June 30 each year — check the issue date, not just the status.

Hiring an unlicensed company is a risk you carry. In Nevada, operating without a license is misdemeanor; gross misdemeanor on repeat (NRS 648.210; NRS 648.220). A person who violates any of NRS 648.060 to 648.203, inclusive, is guilty of a misdemeanor for the first violation and a gross misdemeanor for the second and subsequent violations. Separately, under NRS 648.220 the Board may seek an injunction without proof of actual damage, and the court may impose a civil penalty of up to $10,000 for a violation of the licence-required section. An injunction does not preclude criminal prosecution.

How safe is Las Vegas? The data behind the decision

Las Vegas is policed by a consolidated metro agency, so it doesn't appear as a separate city in the FBI's national table. We use the city's own reported incident data instead, mapped to 10 LVMPD area command — which is the more useful view anyway, since risk inside a city varies far more than it does between cities.

What to check before hiring armored transport & cash-in-transit in Las Vegas

1 providers below list armored transport & cash-in-transit in Las Vegas. Ranking is based on verifiable signals, but the last checks are yours — and they are the ones that decide whether a contract holds up.

1Confirm the license covers this service. A license authorizes specific activities. Confirm the provider's covers armored transport & cash-in-transit specifically — not just "security" in general.
2Ask who actually staffs the post. Some firms subcontract or staff through a partner. Ask who employs the officers on your site, and who carries the workers' comp.
3Get the certificate of insurance from the carrier. Request it naming you as certificate holder. An uninsured incident on your property becomes your liability.
4Pin down coverage and no-show terms. Written post orders, shift times, and what happens when an officer doesn't arrive — including who pays for the gap.
5Compare bill rate against the local range. Use the Las Vegas range above. A quote well under market usually signals an underpaid post, which is where turnover and coverage gaps start.
6Check the contract's exit terms. Notice period, auto-renewal and any early-termination fee. Long lock-ins with no performance clause favor the provider, not you.
