Told my gf could we leave her yorkshire terrier in the van at nights to keep the thieves away?
Just nearly got a black eye then!

I wouldn't mess with a yorkie

I don't think the sticker is a good idea either. I personally feel the best prevention you can do is keeping your mouth shut. Don't be overheard in a pub chatting to your mate about your new pole, or how much you spent on this and that. I'm convinced that that is how most of these van breakins happen. I had an ex who's dad was a roofer- he got his van broken into and robbed of a lot of expensive gear, get this.... it turned out to be his old business partner. Trust no one.

Maybe @SPCleaning can shed a little light in the issue from his police days.

Often the only guys who put these signs on the van are those who do keep tools in overnight. Therefore you make yourself a target.

The same as if you live in a street where no one has a burglar alarm but you proudly have one on your front wall. People think that Billy Burglar will take one look and attack next door. He may in fact walk the street, see your are the only alarmed house and decide you must have things worth protecting. Therefore you become his target.

I also had a string of van breaks over two months. All the vans belonged to the same builders company. Six vans hit. Some hit twice after the tools were replaced. I noted that none of the vans were sign written so the attacks were not random. It turned out to be a disgruntle ex-employee who had been given the push over a year before.

As Mr T said, "Trust No One"

There's a bloke near me that has wired up all the handles on his van so that at night anyone that pulls the handle (tries to get in) they get an electric shock [emoji23]

Only time I had van break ins was when I worked as a carpenter. First one was my own stupid fault, tools left in van overnight with everything on view (I was very naive), second time was in broad daylight right outside a house I was working in. Couldn't afford to replace what I needed second time so ended up doing property maintenance for NCP.
