We at National Equipment Register are thankful for our clients and Law Enforcement partners, and wish you a happy, healthy, and safe Thanksgiving holiday. We also encourage everyone to take steps to make it a crime-free holiday.

2024 Reports to NER indicate steady patterns of equipment theft nationwide. Thieves will be active again this holiday as they were in past years, as detailed in the infographic. Contractors, equipment rental businesses and dealers in all areas should be aware of the continual threat of thefts and be proactive to prevent equipment crimes. Small steps and minor attention to details may be all it takes to deter an opportunistic thief.

Prepare to protect machines staged for snow removal in publicly accessible areas. See the Snow Removal Equipment Theft Prevention Advisory for guidance.
