I have tried many other security services - they are all the same and subpar at best. I gave blackbird a shot and was very glad that I did. The management is super responsive, learns quickly from regular feedback and strives hard to meet my individual business needs. A refreshing experience vs dealing with the other security companies out there. Would recommend to any business looking for quality service!

Blackbird Security has been performing the role of safety ambassadors for the City of Duncan since the summer of 2019. In this role, they have helped provide a safety presence along the Trans-Canada corridor. Their staff have been professional, reliable and on time. They cover all shifts including any time one of their guards is sick. They are quick to respond to calls and available anytime during the day/evening. I recommend them to anyone looking for professional security guards.
