Title: Theft
Post by: StocksArmy on February 24, 2024, 05:18:41 pm
Evening everybody just a bit of a long shot but, my van was stolen from outside my house on Thursday night. The contents of the van was a lot of hard graft over the last 5yrs and upto £10ks worth of belongings. I am a floor layer by trade so please if anybody hears of any tools or machinery being sold let me know. Thanks in advance.

A lot of vans recently have been abandoned in Kirkhouse Green, minus the engine

I feel for you mate, I really do. I've had thousands of pounds worth of gear nicked over the years and it's not easy to replace.
Tool insurance is a complete joke and you don't get paid out any where near what the gear is worth.

All I want is to catch them just once while they're at it.

Thats the other side of donny from where I am then. I am a tradesman myself and I know plenty of blokes who have had their vehicles and tools nicked. There are always the local scrotes round here selling robbed gear so I shall keep an eye out although its probably very unlikely your tools will have made it this far from kirk sandall im afraid.

Any information is much appreciated guys. Im not one of these who wants hassle but those tools are massive to my business and the insurance as said before i feel wont be worth the paper it is written on.

Knocks you sick. Happening all too often. Absolute skids of society.
