SkagitPSS is a Washington State certified Veteran/Servicemember Owned Business that formed in 2009, becoming Skagit Protective Security Servcies (SkagitPSS) in 2014.

Based in Sedro-Woolley, Washington the company is owned, staffed, and operated, almost exclusively, by former U.S. military and high-risk private security personnel who have provided private security services to U-S. entities and allied government entities overseas as well as public and private entities within the U-S.

Yes, we are more expensive than your traditional warm body security company -- which comprises approximately ninety percent of the private security companies in America. Our people are not people who just need a job. Nor are they starry eyed wannabes. Our network of true professionals spans the gamut of military veterans with at least a combat arms mos (military occupational skill), and or law enforcement credentials, and or private security contractors who have deployed downrange. Either way, most have spent time in hostile countries, non-permissive lands, and war zones.

As a result, we never have and never will work unarmed. Security without a firearm is an oxymoron, and is very much like a guard dog without teeth. Yes, we often work in a concealed carry manner. Fortunately, for skagitpss, not once have we ever gone hands on with anyone in the U-S. That is not to say that there were not many times we thought we would. But, we have not had to. If that does not speak volumes, we don't know what does. Furthermore, not once has any of our protectees heen physically harassed when we have been asked to provide physical protection -- either in an escort scenario, a static protection scenario, or a mobile scenario. Again, if that does not speak volumes in testament to our knowledge, experience, and professionalism, then we don't know what does.

If you just need a warm body, or just need someone to cover a firewatch for insurance purposes or regulatory compliance, you're looking at the wrong company. Can we do it? Of course we can. You will just pay more than you are used to paying. If you want or need truly professional security personnel then you're on the right track. That being said, Skagitpss has you covered. Yea!
