CRIME PREVENTION TIPS - PREVENT THEFT OF UNATTENDED PACKAGES AT YOUR BUILDING
There are steps you can take to help prevent theft of unattended packages from happening to you or your neighbors.
- Pick up packages as quickly as possible.
- Leaving packages for an extended period of time increases the chances of theft. Most major shipping companies offer online package tracking, and some can even send you a notification when your package arrives. Utilize these and other services to avoid leaving your delivery unattended for long periods of time.
- Request a signature or schedule a delivery.
- Many shipping companies allow you to request a specific time frame for delivery, such as an evening or weekend when you know you will be home. You can also request that the package not be left without a signature. That way, if you are not around to sign, the carrier will try delivering your package at a later date.
- Use a locker or other secure location.
- Sign up for free services such as FedEx Delivery Manager® and UPS My Choice® or use Amazon Lockers to deliver your package to a local retail store or another secure location until you are able to pick it up.
- Ship your items where you have the best chance of receiving them, such as your office or place of work.
- Family members, trusted neighbors, or friends may be home when you are not.
- Consider asking them to accept packages on your behalf or hold them until you arrive.
- Package theft protection basics.
- Keep the area around your front porch clear and visible.
- Outdoor security cameras. Make sure your security cameras are highly visible.
- Video doorbells with motion activation, are more likely to catch a thief’s facial features.
- Post home security advertising in window and yard signs.
