About Us

AUSTRALASIAN PROTECTIVE SERVICES (APS)

At APS, the cornerstone of our business is providing the highest standards of safety and security, coupled with exceptional customer service.

In 1998, APS was founded to provide discreet armed cash transportation services for small businesses in Adelaide. Our team operated under the radar, without a recognizable uniformed presence, to safely deposit and collect bank cash for our clients. As our reputation for reliability and professionalism grew, APS expanded its offerings to become a comprehensive security solution provider, servicing a wide range of organisations with a compliance-driven approach.

Despite our rapid growth, the majority of our security personnel are in-house employees, instilling confidence in our clients with their reliability and professionalism. Our tailored security services and commitment to quality at every touchpoint of the customer experience have earned us long-term relationships with many of our clients. Our impeccable security record and extensive risk management further cement our reputation as a trusted security provider.

With operations now spanning across Australia, our team at APS is dedicated to creating fully tailored security plans to safeguard your business. And with our customer service team just a phone call away, we’re always here to provide exceptional support whenever you need it.
