Two concrete pumps were stolen last week-end from an ACPA member in New Jersey. Please be on the look out for these pumps as well as any suspicious activities or phones calls. Below are the model numbers: 

2004 Schwing 47M – Mack chassis

2007 Schwing 39M – Mack chassis 

The name on the pumps is “Pauline’s Concrete Pumping” – unless they have already been re-painted.

If you have any information regarding these pumps, please contact Debbie George of Norman-Spencer Agency at 1-800-543-3248.

what's this world coming to?.Todd,any pic's to post?.

We do not have any photo's of the pumps that were stolen.  If we can obtain a photo of one of their other trucks, we will post that photo.  Thanks for your suggestion!

Additional information on the stolen pumps in NJ...

The pumps were stolen from a storage yard in Wharton, NJ.  The pumps were painted Schwing cream, the side boards painted 1957 Ford pink and Pauline's Concrete Pumping painted in black block lettering.

If you have any information, call Norman-Spencer Agency at 800-543-3248 and ask to speak with anyone in the Claims Department or anyone in the Pumpro Program.

For the good of us all lets find these pumps guys, make a few calls make sure everyone back there knows about these pumps being stolen, remember your pump might be next so lets catch these thieves.

Is this a

THING?

Perils of Pauline, for you kids.

Seriously,

If these machines are still in the continential USA or Canada WE are the people that can help find them.

My guess is that there was a ship waiting to take them on board before they were stolen.

If they are still here, we need to know a couple of things:

the last 7 # of the VIN

the serial # of the pump & boom

Now that we have a venue to diseminate this information and over 1,800 members to keep their collective eyes open; we can be a very strong deterrent force to keep this from happening.

Remember that when you buy stolen goods; your insurance rates go up.

Welcome to  CP.COM  ;~)

What a shame, I know these people, both Paul and Pauline are GREAT, hard working folks.  Anyone that can help should.  You could be next!

my dad and i had our pumps broke into. we were worried that they would come back and try to steal the pumps so now we extend one outrigger all the way out but dont put itdown, (if you do they can steal the wheels)and we take the remote box home with us. hope this advice helps. 

Tebequip,

Thank you for the information!!  We are fowarding this to the insurance carrier this am, I'm pretty sure they don't already have this peice of information.  I know they are currently working with the port authorities.  We appreciate your input as does Pauline's and the insurance carrier.

just a thought but notify Schwing cause if anyone orders parts in the future they made use the vin an/or model number to get them and Mack too,send out notices to all the concrete companies,let mixer drivers know what to look for offer them a reward for locating them,and if they intend to use them they are proably the new guys on the block with the lowest prices,notify contractors,and when you find them send them to Texas we got tall trees to hand them from. 

I love Texas, you know how to deal with pump thieves.

Perhaps a good reason why GPS is coming of age.Was hoping someone found these units by now.

Schwing could  recover those units, no problem. Just give the serial #s to their dealer in Dubai.

PS

JUST KIDDING........ ABOUT SCHWING, NOT DUBAI

All,

Just providing you with an update, the pumps have not been located to date.
