Tools left in Vehicles

We have received reports from residents about tools and work equipment being left visible inside parked vehicles. Many people carry tools for work and this is completely normal, but taking a moment to store them out of sight can help protect your property.

If you carry tools, machinery or work equipment, please ensure your vehicle is locked and valuables are stored securely. When possible, keep equipment in the boot or a secure storage area and avoid leaving items on display.

A few simple steps can help keep your property safe and make our neighbourhoods less attractive to opportunist criminals.

Lock it, secure it, and keep valuables out of sight.
