RCMP-accredited digital LiveScan, ink and FD-258 cards, and on-site mobile service — a fast-growing township with steady demand for screening. Individuals visit our Barrie office, about 25 minutes via Highway 90; employers can book us to come to them.
Walk in.
DirectionsAngus is the largest community in the Township of Essa and one of the fastest-growing in Simcoe County, with new neighbourhoods drawing families who work in Barrie, Alliston and across the region.
A large share of local demand comes from civilian contractors and their crews working on construction and service projects at CFB Borden, who need a fingerprint-based criminal record check before they can start work. New jobs, volunteer roles, school placements and professional licences run into the same requirement. Our Barrie office is about 25 minutes east along Highway 90, and for organizations screening several people at once we bring the equipment to you.
For one person or a family, the Barrie office is the fastest and most affordable route: 231 Bayview Dr #202, about 25 minutes via Highway 90. Walk in during business hours, no appointment, 10–15 minutes, free parking on site.
Book an appointment →Mobile service is built for employers and organizations fingerprinting a group on-site. Minimum 5 people, with custom pricing based on location and group size — so it is not the same price as an individual walk-in. If it's just you, the Barrie office is faster and cheaper.
Mobile fingerprinting →Also serving Essa, Baxter, Thornton and Utopia.
