Fuel Theft Warning and Advisory

Recently we have been getting increasing reports of diesel thefts including RED diesel from farm vehicles, commercial vehicles and lorries etc. Also a number of farm out-building/barns and shed breaks have increased in the rural recently. 

·         We ask and advise you all to make your buildings and the contents as secure as possible, either by - reinforcing with additional panels to the internal structure where possible fit grille, heavy wire mesh or strong perspex at windows. 

·         Strengthen the door frame and secure with coach bolts or non-return screws with good shackle padlocks.  

·         Fitting an alarm (no electric supply consider a battery operated alarm) 

·         MARK your PROPERTY - using UV Pen or SMART WATER - we recover large amounts of property this gives a better chance of returning and Identifying your property. 

·         Secure tools and Ladders and record serial numbers - Offenders will use your tools to break into your property. 

·         Lighting - consider movement sensors, now the nights are longer, also consider where to install them. 

·         Park vehicles (fuel tanks together where possible) making it difficult to get between vehicles to syphon fuel out.
