Automatrics tracks down a Stolen Thwaites 1 Ton Skip Load Dumper

- Listen to a summary of the Automatrics June recovery operations whilst en-route to search out yet another stolen 1 ton dumper.
We were contacted by a plant hire client reporting a 1 ton skip loader dumper stolen. We immediately alarmed the Automatrics MTrack and within minutes received a GPS fix that was less than one mile from the customers offices in Milton Keynes.
The customer took a drive to the location showing in a small light industry estate. Unfortunately the machine could not be seen.
Automatrics sent a finder to the site to pick up a radio signal just emanating from a locked industrial unit. The finder called the police who when they arrived were shown the radio location coming from inside unit 37.
Police used their powers of entry to break into the building. The Machine was found inside with several other suspected stolen goods, including welding sets, Wacker plates, motocross bikes.
Thames Valley Police sealed off the business unit as a crime scene and tenants had their tenancy agreement withdrawn immediately by the landlords.
Police questioned a Polish company driver who turned up at the building during the recovery, He confirmed they traded between the UK and Poland and he has been asked to attend the station for further questioning, arrests are expected to follow.
What's good about this work is while solving one crime, you always seem to solve about 10 more.
Alan Always picking up a fleet of stolen vehicles or a lock up full of tools.
For free aswell
Polish stolen goods syndicate, lets hope Brexit will stop some of this.
Educate yourself by reading something other than the Daily Mail you fucking porkflake.
The EU is a dumpster fire, how can you not support Brexit? Just because the EU kicks you on the way out doesn't mean it would be better to stay, it means you should have never joined to begin with.
2 years later still binge watching your videos during lockdown... love these guys....
More on there way
‘The deeper you go the better!’
Brendan Tinsley That’s what yer mum said.
I'm amazed you even managed to get the police to attend a traveler site!!!! I am also impressed that you managed to retrieve anything from a traveller site.
@@joelmale8940 aye they are
Did you just called polish people a gypsy for the UK?
Think I this dude is a bit slow
@@joelmale8940 Racist aren't we?
It's not a traveller site, it's a business park, Even if it was a traveller site, the police have in each area a list of each site's requirement for attendance to prevent tension between the police and the communities. Even the worst sites will give certain members of their community up if the crime is serious enough. There are many sites that give no trouble to the police, or the local areas, some do anything to be left alone and leave others alone too. These are usually small groups of no more than 1 or 2 families and often they are much older.
7:25 where is the lockpicking lawyer when you need him most :D
I think he's in Australia
@LikeA Nico Classic! XD
That's a thunk our of one, crack out of two, 3 is loose and we're in
basically swapping stolen goods from one country to another . police should of sat it out and caught them out .
They're small time and the cops don't have the budget. The court will just grant them bail and they'll skip the country; gone in 60 seconds.
Don't have the budget even as the 6th richest economy in the world.
they probably got tied up arresting people over some tweets criticising Islam.
The "don't have the budget" excuse is just unacceptable. Make criminals pay for the damages.
pat mac Unfortunately, that is more likely. The populace should rise against such attacks against free speech. In a free country, one should feel free to speak their mind without being arrested. That includes speaking the truth against Islam.
Should have a series on a tv channel like Dave. Would be great!
Alex Dolan if I’m not mistaken he did have couple episodes on BBC but I think we all prefer his independent tracking. Working with the show has too many headaches and regulations so he won’t be free as this plus it’s more difficult because it would delay the process since camera men have to be on standby
definitely has the potential to be a popular TV show, has the combined suspense / satisfaction of a police show combined with those storage container auctions. Because you never know whats going to be inside! On a TV version of this they could possibly both interview the victims and chase down the tenants of the storage places too who are presumably the thieves.
Problem is when the TV shows get involved all of a sudden everything gets over dramatised and could end up being staged.
Love the officers moaning about having to break in the door. Too much like actual police work!
This tracking system is phenomenal... I'd get one if I had something worth more than the tracker costs...😎
I'd put one on my missus but she's not worth that much.
You can buy a GPS tracker with a sim card for bout £40. I have one and it's amazing.
@@dobythedog where do you get them from?
I love watching you guys track down stolen stuff. Its extremely satisfying for some reason
I hope the police put some night surveillance on that place after that.
Sinky they would have been best leaving the place alone. They would just move on now
you are right.
Sinky lives in a dream world.
They most likely did check all the stuff in there against registers and stolen vehicles.
You obviously didn't watch the video. Quote "Good police cover."
Well done! it's good to see a video with something being recovered for a change. Good job gents
For over 15 yrs i did the same with Tracker Network. Great Result guys.
you're doing a great job, love watching these videos
'you're doing a great job' - Fair enough, but it's not like he's gonna upload his unsuccessful job onto youtube! 😂
@@DamianDeEu True, but why would you? He also doesn't include hours of video when he is driving to a job or waiting for the police to deal with their resourcing backlog.
@@DamianDeEu actually there is a video where the Thiefs found the tracker and dumped it in a field
Another good result and the customer gets his machine back. Although not AutomatricsMTrack's concern, I think the rest of the story would have been very interesting. When I see how low the insurance companies value my car, it makes sense to try and find it if it was stolen. I've had a car and a motorcycle stolen and neither were recovered by the police.
binarybox yeah, it would been interesting to have more detail on what happened at the end. Did these guys get arrested etc.
Love these videos and your service. Also love your video editing with the maps showing where you are and where the units are. We are getting to know England pretty good from watching these videos.
Thank's really appreciate that :)
Every video they say WE GOT A CALL THIS MORNING OR TODAY, And they're on the case no messin, That is totally awesome, Keep up the great work guys and thanks for sharing with us.
Between yourselves and the Police you're doing a brilliant job. Well done chaps!
This is why i am a custommer of autometricks. These kind of videos are the best advert.
i bet that Police officer always dreamed of driving something like this!:)
police officer Marek yes, i bet he did,not the first time he had driven this one LOL
Excellent work, always a good watch
And without that tracker theres Just no way the owner would have got his truck back, it'd be in Poland now, that's the amazing part of the whole thing for me!!
100 % the correct comment
easy money for the operaters
These videos are so satisfying

"That's what _she_ said."
Recently started viewing all of your content. This is my favorite recovery yet! Too bad they couldn't set up a sting to catch a few bandits...
Good job chaps, another successful find. I liked the left hand drive joke!!.
I wish I had something of value just so that I could use your company. (Also I'm on the other side of the world). You do great work and a great service, sir.
Another great job. Well done. And to those using this thread to denounce foreign workers there are are some bloody lazy and criminal minded English people. There’s good and bad from every country.
Bazza
Some countries are more bad than others though.
at least the polish like shots at an actual bar instead of bombings and alahua ackbars
Good and bad from every country? That simply is not true. You may be unaware of recent developments in world politics but Donald Trump made America (states) great again. It was previously not a country one would refer to as a "great" country but after he took the office of President, he immediately began the work of making America (the USA) great. Again. It was hard work and for quite a while things were rather touch-and-go but he finished his grand task. America (the United States of) is once again great. As we are now great, it cannot be said that we are bad. Bad people are not great and neither are their countries. So next time you make such a broad statement about bad people, please remember that in America (USA! USA!) we are all great and therefore good. Especially the whites.
Bazza
Okay, without foreigners/ workers
the crime wave would be halved.
Yes, but the foreign element always opens up exponential layers of complexity however. Imagine a game of chess that is going well for you. Your king is well protected, and your pawns are controlling the center position. Now imagine your opponent thinks hard about his next move, takes a deep breath, and then brings in his cousins from Serbia. They throw the chess board in your face, rob you, and tell you that chess is for communists. You didn't anticipate that because it's just not cricket.
I love the way the cops were relaxed and behaving like normal people, all the cop shows seem to put them on edge (understably)
Excellent work Excellent Vid.. Great find well done!!
Please upload more often. I love watching this stuff
Love what you guys do. Keep up the good work
Really great job guys..
Thanks we do appreciate your comment 👍

What does a dodgy looking van look like, just because it's outside of the unit don't mean that the people are criminals. Doesn't matter to me as I live in Canada, I don't know what a dodgy looking van looked like. Congrats on recovering the stolen equipment!
As soon as I saw the outside of the units, I knew where this was straight the way. Great work @automatricsMTrack
That was awesome! Absolutely great work, This must be verry rewarding as well! Thank you so much for sharing this!
Can't get enough of these videos. Keep up the good work
Hello,
I appreciate watching you run stolen equipment to ground. It is interesting to see what the police need -- or think they need -- to get the stolen property properly recovered. [I refer to proper "probable cause" for search warrants.]
This particular video is a bit funny because the door lock was so destroyed in order to gain access. I do not gain unlawful access to places myself. But I have watched videos of breaking and entering shown which help me understand how the criminals carry out their dirty business. What I found funny here is that a metal coat hanger and a stick may have so easily opened the door without damage. The door handle being a lever, reaching through the mail slot of the other door and hooking and turning the inside handle may have opened the front door without damage. [I admit that some locks prevent rotation of any lever if the lock is engaged. I have seen however a number of visibly-safely-locked places which are not safe whatsoever.]
omg the joke about the bike being a left hand drive lol
It's interesting to note that there's been at least one left-hand drive motor cycle. It had the throttle on the left handle instead of on the right.
That particular feature of a motor bike was a plot point in an episode of "Happy Days."
Love watching your videos, saves a bored evening watching rubbish on the tv.
There's a lot to be said for these kind of services. my parents own a 2017 mercedes estate and my mum regrettably put petrol in it instead of diesel.
it had to be recovered on a vehicle transporter.
within 10 minutes they were contacted by tracker to say that their system had detected the car moving without the engine running.
As someone else has said - with insurance company payouts being so low it may be worth the price to have the vehicle found and recovered.
I will certainly be looking into it.
@
Noizy Neighbour
Anyone placing Petrol in a Diesel vehicle should not be operating any vehicle.
This is incompetence. A child van be taught the difference and not make that mistake.
Adults do not pay attention and are difficult to teach because (a) they are ashamed and embarrassed of not having specific knowledge and
(b) They believe they know everything
(c) They believe that they do not need to learn any more
(d) they object to being taught and corrected on their lack of knowledge.
(e) They prefer to live a life of ignorance
Keep up your good work, would appreciate more after recovery actions
*_I think we wish you do more recording of you're tracking of stolen items so there good!_*
@Hugh JaanusNo!
"I was thinking, that we are wishing that you would do more recordings of your tracking of stolen items. They're so good!".
@Hugh Jaanus But all his words were spelled correctly!
@Hugh Jaanus But that was a correct spelling!
@Hugh Jaanus It's not just Americans. I'm from New Zealand and there's a large percentage of people here who don't know the difference between there, their and they're. Worse than this however is the enormous group of people who don't know when to use your or you're. Most are just lazy and use 'your' for every occasion.
Hope there will be some arrests later - just wondering is it the criminals who down vote the recovery of stolen property.
This is the way to go. I shall tell everyone I know about your company... Great vids as good as "The Sheriffs are coming" Thanks
Fricking amazing work you guys. There was a Polish outfit stealing expensive cars in Montreal some years ago. There was a Tennis Tournament on and a lot of the teams from the USA were given parking at the Olympic Stadium parking area. When they returned all their vehicles were gone. These cars get put in large containers and shipped to Poland off the docks in Montreal and sold on. Not sure whether this lot were caught.
This was a kinda strange set up, a Polish shipping and distribution company that appeared to have shipments of goods with legitimate paperwork. More like a genuine company with organised criminality working in parallel. We consider bandits come from and operate in every country. That being said, we agree that East Europeans do have a reputation in professional theft and clearly they are very proficient in their business.
I like these videos because it's easy to find a happy ending.
yea brilliant system.. im thinking of buying a tracker for my bike
You can buy them from eBay
Fantastic but what about the other stuff. And the thief's, please keep us updated.
They should have finger printed the microwave etc.
Why don't you ring up your local police station and tell them how to do it?
been watching all your videos today, very interesting... would love your jobs tbh .. the satisfaction of finding it and the skill with the rf is great
Taking things from Poland and selling in the UK, and taking things form the UK and selling them in Poland. Not only is that suspicious, but is a very telltale signal of theft. I'm admired that not anyone reported that suspicious activity to the Police.
Very cool. I love these videos. Thanks for sharing them.
i know this is just a big ad , but I actually really like it.
I would like to see the Sweeney busts , with John thaw busting some scrags heads
and Dennis waterman putting the boot in and scoring some page 3 girl.
Left hand drive motor bike isn't as stupid as it sounds because some bike's headlights are of a different orientation depending on left or right hand drive.
I wonder what happened with the bike. Cracking work by the way, cleaning the country 1 scumbag company at a time. The rate you're going - the police should carry the tracking gear and be trained to use it!
Nice way to get in. Damaging the whole door instead of picking, drilling or breaking the cylinder.... Whatever, nice tracking-job!

Picking the lock would be easier and without damage.
Smashing the way in creates damage which creates work which creates debt which creates income.
It is all about commerce. It is what I stated on the above line that is economic nutrition.
The European Economy (Europe then was Rome (what is Italy Now) and Greece.
It thrived and prospered by destroying the forests destroying all the trees..
Timber was the primary resource and source of the economic development of nations.
Theft generated free labor as thieves were set to work for the CROWN, working for only food.
Much was achieved by the free labor of of thieves.
Their labor was valued many times more than the items they stole.
Same applied today with Contracts and Commercial liens.
Only you are not aware of it as you live in a kind of Goldfish bowl world.
Why should the tax-payers have to pay for an emergency locksmith + police time while he arrives? The owner of the building is profiting from criminals, thus, will have to foot the bill for a new door
@@andrew_koala2974 , the goldfish in a bowl exist on planet Koala, Andrew is the ruler....
*Excellent work lads.* I was hoping for a VIN check on the bike... :(
Fingers crossed they did
Well done, Automatrics!!
Woop New video, keep them coming! I'd love to see a TV show of these, with more videos and information of what you do while finding them
This is beautiful! I guess the police also enjoy such finds.
2.17 stolen generator from future recovery goes past.
Lmaoo
Well done. It's a shame manufacturers don't as a matter of course install security.
im addicted to these videos
Why didn’t they leave it all there and keep watch and get them in on the act? They’ll just move to another unit now and then repeat..
Most satisfying to find their stuff before it's out of the country
Great work but it would be nice to see some follow up material. Did they make arrests? what happened about the stolen Polish bike etc. Perhaps someone else could cover all this and put on TV
free movement of crime... thanks Mr EU... anyway they'll be barred from entering the UK once the convictions stick along with their cohorts.
Do they have that in the US? I’d like to work for them. On my down time. Love finding things.
i love these videos
Rookie cop with the Aviators and smartwatch must be on his first day.
Such satisfying videos to watch
Brilliant stuff love these videos
Great filming and commentary, well done.
Great job... nothing like the chase and getting results.
I love the business idea: "We're bringing some things to Poland, we're bringing some things here!" :D:D:D
Damn, the police showed up in a van? Talk about a flex.
Nice Work.
Thank you! Cheers!
1:45 lmao that pic makes it look like they had a high speed pursuit with helicopter support of a thief driving a mini roller
I bet that Bobby was dying to drive that dumper as I would be haha
We'd like to see a lot more "Perp-Walk" after your fine work.
Quality job. Thanks for the video.
Please tell me the cops took advantage of the gift on a plate and waited for the thieves to return for the night shift, or at least checked through those bags in the "bedroom" for ID.
They could properly solve and prosecute for at least a dozen crimes, as opposed to just ticking them off as solved because the goods have been recovered.
Excellent work
This is the dark and infamous side to the free movement of people and goods across large parts of Europe. Go pretty much anywhere unchallenged.
OMG! The unnecessary damage they did to get in there, the poor landlord will have to pick up the cost of the door/lock repair. I'm a locksmith and I can tell you just from watching that video that I could have gotten in with no damage to the doors whatsoever, and changed the cylinder on that lock for a fraction of the cost that will now cost to repair/replace.
@Johnny Ericsson It depends on each circumstance, in this case the police had the landlord on the phone, so he would have authorized me to act on his behalf, I would have picked/snapped/pulled/drilled the cylinder, changed the cylinder and billed the landlord 20 for the cylinder and 50 for my minimum hours labour and given 3 new keys to landlord or police. The damage to the lock case, doors, strike plate and keep + the labour to repair the damage those 2 police officers did, will probably cost 400+ , which the landlord will either have to claim on insurance (probably not a his excess will be in the 500 region), or just payout of his own pocket, which he's probably going to have to do for the securing company that comes round boarding anyways. If no stolen goods were recovered the police are legally libel for any damage they caused, (An ex friend of mine got 2000 off the Met for smashing down his work door after a report of a funny smell.).
TherealElliot understand where your coming from, but owner rented 2 thieves. If deposit and security rent was secured, where money will come out of. Unless locksmith was called at same time as cops, would still wastes loads of man hours waiting around.
It's not the polices' job to take the feelings of the criminals into consideration. Calling a proper locksmith could have taken too much time or maybe they were all just busy. Also not to mention putting a civilian locksmith in danger. There were beds in that building. Imagine some dude waking up and hearing a commotion at the door and then just shooting through it. It could happen and is obviously not worth the risk. The landlord can easily keep the deposit from the renters to cover the broken door. The landlord can probably also just say fuck off to the renters and keep the rest of their stuff. For you to say "Police, hire me instead" is an incredibly stupid thing to say, just to save random guy a few dollars when lives could be on the line.
@@serpico1616 I'm guessing because you used the term dollars you're not familiar with how things work with the police in the UK, each regional police force have their own procedures, I work semi regularly with my local police force and social services on both high risk and low risk jobs (that's why I carry a stab/bullet proof vest in the van), and criminals feelings have nothing to do with it, UK law and legal responsibility for damages does, in this case the criminals had sub let the unit from someone, so most lightly the buildings insurance would be void, there were a few empty units, so the chances are low or no deposit (we're still recovering from a recession, a number of local businesses are renting out business units for just the cost of the council tax, so its not costing them money having empty units they are paying tax on), and under UK law even if the police have a search warrant, if nothing illegal is found the police are legally responsible for any and all damage they caused, so if nothing had been found at this address, the local police force would have been on the hook for the repairs, and that money comes from law abiding tax payers.
I'm pretty sure I understand all you are saying, and it all makes sense. And as far as I know, it's all the same here in Canada. Minus the renters deposit money, as we haven't gone through a recession (yet, knock on wood). But the only difference I see is that there is no way a cop would just call a local locksmith in this situation. It's just not worth the risk of civilian life, way too dangerous breaking into an unknown building with just 2 officers and a cameraman. I don't think the police would let that situation happen, in Canada or the USA. I would have thought the same about the UK. It must have to do with the lesser gun violence in the UK.
Ever heard of a locksmith?
Do the police not have access to a lock smith, or do they just enjoy breaking the innocent landlord's door?
Well done 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Keep up the good work, well done!
Well done guys👍🏼
A few minutes with a key gun (unless it is a pick proof lock) then drill it 5 minutes, the cops can be trained to do this. I taught a cop that was hired for security how to use a key gun.
to let industrial units....interesting too see whats going on inside ie stolen items and sleeping facilities. all very dodgy!
Its bletchley, its a daily occurrence
Yeah prob living/sleeping there, not paying rent on any real accommodation and trafficking goods back and forth to poland. Motorbike was on polish plates so had prob been stolen in Poland.
The police need the skills of The Lock Picking Lawyer to get into the building easier.
"Is it left-hand drive" 😂😂😂😂😂
I dunno about motorcycles, but in countries that drive on the left side of the road, the rear brakes on a bicycle are controlled with the left hand, while in countries that drive on the right side of the road they are controlled with the right hand. So technically you do get left-hand and right-hand drive bikes!
Hi, nice video again! Just wonder you mention quadbikes was there any raptor 700 a white quad bike there? Thanks
I see he has the fire dept master key, the Haligan tool.
For one thing, the front of the building doesn't have a dock on it. That's the back of ther building. Everyone knows that but evidently you don't. The back of the building is where the loading and unloading docks are located. The office is located in the front.
Amazing work !
Catching thieves like this would be a fun job.
Always dissatisfying to know that the culprits weren't identified or apprehended. Nothing to stop them from renting another space and continuing on. A major flaw in policing.
The cops may have returned that evening to arrest them.
I love how you just walk in with the police that just forced entry. 😂
Landlord gave permission as they had lost the keys anyhow, but they did say be as gentle as possible to cause the least damage, hence the delicate bashing lol 😜😁😜
@@AutomatricsMtrack delicate bashing lol
