Where the data comes from
Every report names its source with the time it was read. This page is the same list with what the source costs you directly.
The Equipment Register
The theft register for plant, farm machinery and trailers, by serial number or PIN, running since 1995. Each check is answered by hand by the register's own staff.
You can buy a check there yourself: £10.00 plus VAT for theft, £30.00 plus VAT with finance, read 23 September 2026. Our report covers the theft check and the register status, not the finance search.
No government body publishes a register of stolen plant and machinery. There is no free official route for this check.
