South Down Neighbourhood Policing Team are inviting trailer owners to a property marking event at Hilltown Mart between 2pm and 8pm on Friday 30 May. Those attending are invited to bring along their trailers which will be marked by the Neighbourhood Policing Team so that they are more identifiable and easily recognised.
Trailer marking involves a unique ID mark, consisting of a series of letters and numbers, being painted on a trailer in an easily visible area using specialist paint and stencils. The trailer owner’s details and ID mark are recorded and held on a PSNI database which can then be checked if a trailer is seen on the road or in a location at a time that’s unusual. Trailer marking is just one strand of the PSNI’s Farmwatch initiative which has been developed to help farmer’s protect and secure their property and homes.
