Prevent Work-Truck Theft

Contractors rely on their tools and equipment for their jobs. Whether you’re a small independent company or huge corporation, work-truck theft is an unexpected, costly hassle. These crimes not only delay work schedules, but can cause financial hardship. Fleet managers and independent contractors alike can put preventative measures in place to combat cargo theft by securing vehicles. Listed below are some tips to reduce the chance of theft:

·        Secure your vehicle – Always lock doors and close windows

·        Use heavy-duty locking tool boxes

·        Installing custom tamper resistant door handles

·        Install extra lighting and/or motion-censored lights where vehicles are parked

·        Install an alarm system

·        Photograph, document and record serial numbers of your equipment and tools.

·        Engrave your tools with your federal tax I.D number or company name
