Truck yard, storage and job site security in Caledon and Bolton

Local and live

Trucking, construction and farmland on the same roads

Transportation and logistics accounts for 21% of Caledon's businesses, according to the Town's economic development office: 698 businesses employing 4,148 people, led by truck transportation, support activities for transportation, and warehousing and storage. Bolton has distribution centres for well-known retailers, and Highways 9, 10 and 50 connect Caledon to the 400, 401, 407, 410 and 427, with Toronto Pearson about 30 minutes south.

Construction is the Town's second-largest industry, with 579 businesses and 4,424 workers, and farms still cover 46% of Caledon's land base: 345 farms, making up 85% of the farms in Peel Region. That mix puts contractors' lots, equipment yards, farm operations and trucking properties side by side, often on large parcels well outside the villages, where few people pass by at night.

Remote monitoring suits that kind of property. Sigma's technicians install cameras and speakers, AI person and vehicle detection flags movement anywhere the cameras cover, and a live agent responds with a live, instant talk-down or a call to police, so checking the lot doesn't mean someone driving out at night. For outdoor storage, parking reports show what's parked, and remote gate operations let agents see each arrival on camera and speak with drivers through the site's speakers.
