With the rise of porch pirates, two security experts give their best home delivery tips to keep your packages from being stolen.
A video camera is not the only security tool that can be helpful for safe home delivery.and co-founder of Security Guards Only, says you should also consider installing other useful protective measures around your home.
"Porch pirates will commonly attack at night, so having additional security mechanisms such as gate alarms and automatic lights can help deter them," Ketelaars explains."Additionally, when used with cameras, it can help alert the device to pick up the audio and visual feed and provide a more clear picture."Not everyone can afford to buy extra security devices to protect their orders, however.
"While you want to make instructions simple for the courier's sake, this is a good feature to utilize and experiment with," Ketelaars notes."For example, instruct delivery people to access a side or back door, or have them hide your package under furniture on the front porch." Musson also suggests making side or back door delivery requests, as these areas are less visible to people passing by your home.
"Thieves are generally looking for an easy target, and if they can't see what they can take from the street, they may not do the work to look around in more places," he shares.
