A reminder on packages being delivered to your home this Christmas season. Most deliveries do not require a signature and are generally left at your front door even if no one is home to accept them. These packages, which quickly catch the eye of potential thieves, offer criminals that crime of opportunity. Thieves looking to steal your packages will follow or watch for UPS, Fed Ex, US Mail, and other delivery service trucks so they can target your home after the parcels are delivered. This usually increases around the holidays due to increased shopping practices of residents. Here are a few tips to keep your packages safe from a thief. ~Request a “Signature Delivery Option.” ~Request a specific drop off time and date when you will be home to accept your packages. ~Arrange to have your packages held at the shipping service so you can pick them up. ~Have your packages delivered to your workplace. ~Have your packages delivered to the home of a relative or neighbor who will be there to accept them.
