Keeping the “Porch Pirates” at Bay
Online shopping is the ultimate convenience. Unfortunately, getting deliveries when you’re not at home can lead to package theft.
- Here are helpful tips to thwart the efforts of thieving porch pirates:
- Purchase a Porch Box or Landport. You can even build your own DIY lock box.
- Ask a neighbor to pick up your parcel if you expect a delivery while not at home.
- Sign up with UPS and FedEx for email alerts.
- Ask the USPS to hold packages at the post office when on vacation.
- Install a video security camera in plain view to deter thieves.
- Require that all deliveries require a signature.
First Impressions are Everything
The front door is the first part of your home that a visitor sees. Make a great first impression by installing fresh new hardware to the front porch.
