Fuel theft is a growing problem for businesses in Toronto, especially those running construction sites, transportation fleets, or large outdoor operations. Rising fuel prices make diesel and biodiesel attractive targets for theft—and even small losses add up quickly.
Here’s how to protect your fuel supply.
1. Secure Your Storage Tanks
- Use locking fuel caps or anti-siphon devices.
- Install tanks in well-lit, fenced areas.
- Consider underground or above-ground tanks with tamper-proof valves.
2. Use Fuel Monitoring Systems
Modern tank monitoring systems track fuel levels in real time. Sudden drops trigger alerts, so you’ll know immediately if something is wrong.
3. Limit Access
- Keep tanks locked and restrict access to authorized staff only.
- Use key cards or fuel card lock systems to track who’s refueling and when.
4. Keep Records
Log every delivery and refueling. Comparing records with actual usage makes it easier to detect unusual patterns.
5. Work With a Reliable Fuel Supplier
