On arrival we hold a safety briefing, agree the route plan and begin systematic searches covering stockrooms, shopfloors, vehicles and likely concealment areas. Any indications are photographed, logged and escalated to your nominated lead. Our NASDU qualified handlers prioritise animal welfare, maintain chain of custody for finds and provide a concise post search report with next steps.
