The National Equipment Register (www.NERusa.com) was established in 2001 to increase the recovery rate of stolen farm and construction equipment by improving the volume, quality and availability of information available to law enforcement investigating suspicious equipment.
NER offers:
•
Equipment registration and marking services (HELPtech®)
•
Theft prevention advice and reference materials
•
Regional training classes for owners and law enforcement
•
A national database of equipment ownership (13 million records)
•
A national database of theft reports (80,000 records)
•
Equipment identification assistance for police 24 hours-a-day
•
A 24-hour national Tip Line
These services have resulted in the recovery of over $8 million of stolen equipment - much more if related recoveries are included.
