Procedure Overview
for Reporting Theft of Equipment and/or Cargo
The State of Florida in cooperation with the Florida
Trucking Association and the Florida Joint Multi-Jurisdictional Task force
has established a reporting system for stolen Equipment and Cargo through
their "Fax-Alert" Program
We endorse the program and contained herein is our
procedure for reporting the theft of Equipment and or cargo through the
use of the "Fax-Alert" Program.
FIRST, report all thefts to Steve Brown or Ida Nelson in
our safety department by calling 800-444-4168 and fax all copies of
interchanges, bills of lading, and/or delivery instructions plus a copy of
the "Fax Alert" report to Steve or
Ida at 704-283-7122. A preliminary copy should accompany the initial
initial and a final copy after the Investigating Officer has completed
their report. Be sure that you get the Officers report number and
the location of his office where the report will be filed. This
information should accompany the final report.
SECOND, notify your local Law Enforcement Agency of the
theft to initiate the local investigation process.
Included with your Theft Reporting procedures is a blank copy of the
"Fax Alert" reporting form and the State of Florida's "Fax
Alert Procedure". In addition we have included a
"Sample" form for your use when having to complete a form when a
theft occurs.
Timely reporting of thefts is essential and should be
your highest priority when you discover that a theft has occurred.
Once it is received, the Florida BOI will fax a Theft
Recovery Form to the telephone number listed on the "Fax Alert"
form. As soon as you receive this form, fax a copy of it to the Safety
Department in Monroe.
All interchanges should include the chassis
information including the license number and the state where
licensed. If this information is not on the interchange, it should
be added by the first driver who picks the container and/or chassis at the
port or Shipping/Rail Station.
Finally, more detailed instructions are contained in a packet sent
to each of the Agencies. Refer to this packet and make sure that a
copy of the instructions and and several copies of the "Fax
Alert" form are in every Tractor that handles Freight for Titan
Transport, LLC.
