Dealer Resources

NAEDA affiliated associations offer a compilation of dealer protection laws to help independent retail dealers learn more about the various state and provincial laws that apply to their businesses.

Dealers with questions about these laws are encouraged to call the state, regional or provincial associations to which they belong, call the NAEDA Legal Assistance Program* at 816/421-4460 (ask for Risa Olds), or send an e-mail to naedalegal@sblsg.com. All others with questions also are encouraged to consult with counsel.

* The NAEDA Legal Assistance Program is a service provided to retail equipment dealers who are paid members of NAEDA-affiliated associations. The program is operated by Seigfreid, Bingham, Levy, Selzer & Gee, Kansas City, Mo.

NAEDA has prepared this brochure as a quick reference guide to cover topics of interest to dealers, manufacturers, distributors, and suppliers when dealing with their product lines.

The National Equipment Register (NER), a division of ISO Crime Analytics, and the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB)’s 2009 heavy-equipment theft report focuses on the types of equipment most likely to be stolen (or recovered) and where in the U.S. the thefts are occurring. The report also highlights the direct and indirect costs of theft for owners and insurers. New statistics and analyses have been added to the 2009 report, such as a map of the United States illustrating theft and recovery rates at the county level.
