A Mobile Security Unit (MSU) has a security checkpoint and a transport. The security checkpoint has an item screening area and a personal screening area. The checkpoint is configured as needed to fit within the transport. The MSU may further separate certain individuals into a secure, enclosed wanding station for additional security screening. The wanding station may be constructed using glass (or other strong, visually transparent substance) and metallic (such as aluminum or steel) posts so that people may be securely enclosed in the wanding station but still have a direct line of sight to personal items being screened at another location. The MSU is configured so that most people pass straight through the checkpoint, and people leaving the wanding station can easily obtain their items without delaying others.
