Sanders Plant & Waste Management thwarts thieves 09 October 2014

Sanders Plant & Waste Management is reporting safely recovering a heavy duty roller using Ctrack's tracking system after it was stolen by thieves.

Morpeth-based firm, which provides plant hire and waste services specialist across Northumberland and Tyne & Wear, says the vehicle, worth £25,000 had been stolen from a customer site while on hire.

Web-based Ctrack Online vehicle tracking had alerted the firm to the unauthorised movement of its plant via SMS and email.

Office staff were then able to track the location of the equipment as well as capture the necessary data to aid any police investigation.

"Thanks to Ctrack's tracking system and their support team we have been able to safely recover our plant equipment in a fast and effective manner," states Nicola Sanders, business development manager at Sanders Plant & waste Management.

"We initially adopted the technology to monitor our commercial vehicle fleet to enhance logistics and operational processes, but then rolled it out across all plant and machinery to provide added levels of security."
