In any case, file a report. This gets around and ensures that your company is no longer the focus of thieves. Unfortunately, some thieves have no awareness of wrongdoing at all because they believe that they are actually doing the company a favor.
Is that correct? No! Because you - the tradespeople - are obliged to dispose of waste professionally and will receive proof of disposal from your certified waste tire recycler. Because waste can also be valuable and useful! Used tires not only provide valuable energy; On the one hand, they save coal and petroleum in combustion plants with complex filter systems or they serve as a valuable material for a new tire life and, through recycling, become a secondary raw material that is very welcome in construction or in the rubber industry. An undamaged commercial vehicle casing can be retreaded up to three times and given a “second life”. There are also many other measures to extend the product life cycle of a used tire. The primary goal is to avoid waste and save resources.
Important! Traders have full recourse. If your stolen old tires are found in the landscape but not reported, you will be held responsible. Due to tolerated theft, traders are in constant danger of being held responsible for illegal waste disposal. That's why we recommend that you report any theft!
Take precautions and act actively!
The first tip from some suffering customers and also from us is: strictly deny unauthorized visitors access to the company premises. Provide information clearly visible via signs in the entrance area. If repeat cases occur, inform the police!
If possible, secure your property with a fence and gate, this provides complete protection. Video surveillance and sufficient lighting in the dark should be standard.
