AccountabilityGPS and reporting
Murfreesboro is Rutherford County's largest city, and it keeps adding apartments, shopping, medical offices and jobs. A university town with a strong retail base and a calendar full of events has security needs that change by the season. Crimson Security Service is a Rutherford County company. Our office in Smyrna is about 15 miles away, and we provide licensed armed and unarmed officers throughout Murfreesboro (TN license #14376).
Where Murfreesboro clients use us
Student housing and apartment communities. With Middle Tennessee State University's student body of more than 20,000, Murfreesboro has a lot of rental housing near campus and along its main corridors. Communities deal with trespassing, parking problems, amenity misuse and late-night noise. Scheduled patrols with GPS and QR checkpoints give managers a clear record of every round.
Parking garages and lots. Garages and lots that sit empty late at night attract break-ins and loitering. We provide armed and unarmed officers for overnight and weekend garage coverage.
Retail and shopping centers. The Avenue Murfreesboro and the retail along Old Fort Parkway and Medical Center Parkway see heavy weekend traffic. Visible officers deter theft and give store managers someone close by when there's trouble.
Healthcare and professional offices. Medical offices and clinics need a steady, courteous presence at entrances and in parking areas, especially for evening hours.
Events. From corporate events to community gatherings and private parties, we plan gates, crowd areas and parking.
