Why CCSF Matters: A Better Approach to Air Cargo Security.

TSA-Certified Cargo Screening & CCSF Services in Atlanta

In today’s global logistics environment, air cargo security isn’t optional — it’s critical. Every shipment moving by air must meet strict screening requirements before it ever reaches the aircraft. That’s where working with a trusted Certified Cargo Screening Facility (CCSF) makes all the difference.

At Mile Marker Logistics, our TSA-certified cargo screening services are designed to help freight forwarders and shippers move faster, stay compliant, and reduce risk — all while maintaining full control of their freight.

What is a Certified Cargo Screening Facility (CCSF)?

A Certified Cargo Screening Facility (CCSF) is approved by the Transportation Security Administration to screen air cargo before it reaches the airport. This allows freight to be securely screened upstream in the supply chain, reducing congestion and delays at the airline level.

Air cargo screening is similar in concept to passenger luggage screening — every shipment must be inspected and cleared before loaded onto an aircraft. What many don’t realize is that a large portion of global air freight travels on passenger aircraft, making security and compliance even more essential.

Mile Marker Logistics: Secure, Compliant, and Efficient

Mile Marker Logistics operates a TSA-certified CCSF facility in Atlanta, strategically located just minutes from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport — one of the busiest air cargo hubs in the world.

Our facility is built to support freight forwarders with:

  • U.S. Customs bonded warehousing

  • TSA-certified cargo screening

  • Secure, monitored operations

  • Faster processing and reduced airport delays

  • Improved control and visibility of shipments

We help streamline handoffs to carriers and maintain a secure chain of custody from warehouse to aircraft.

Advanced Screening: CCSF-K9 Capabilities

As part of our multi-layered screening approach, Mile Marker Logistics is also approved for CCSF-K9 (canine cargo screening).

This allows trained canine teams to screen palletized freight quickly and accurately — without breaking down shipments to the piece level. The result is significantly faster processing times, reduced handling, and improved efficiency for exporters, freight forwarders, and air carriers.

Why It Matters for Freight Forwarders

For freight forwarders, TSA compliance and timing are everything. Delays at the screening stage can disrupt entire supply chains and impact customer relationships.

Working with a trusted CCSF partner like Mile Marker Logistics means:

  • Faster cargo throughput

  • Reduced risk of delays or re-screening

  • Reliable, compliant processes

  • Seamless transfer to airlines worldwide

Simply put, we help you protect your timelines — and your reputation.
