The holidays bring more deliveries, more travel, and more valuables in the house, and thieves know it. A few simple steps can help keep your home and belongings safe this season in Englewood and across the Denver metro area.

Protect Your Packages

Track deliveries and bring packages inside quickly.
Use a lockbox, a package locker, or pickup at a store.
Require a signature for expensive items.
Ask a neighbor to grab deliveries when you’re away.

Make Your Home Look Occupied

Use timers or smart plugs for lights and a TV.
Stop mail and newspaper delivery when you travel, or ask a neighbor to collect them.
Arrange for snow to be shoveled. An unshoveled driveway after a storm is a clear sign no one is home.
Don’t post travel plans or photos on social media until you’re back.

Secure Doors, Windows, and Garages

Lock every door and window, including the door between the garage and the house.
Don’t leave a garage door opener in a car parked outside.
Add motion lights and a video doorbell.
Break down boxes from new TVs and electronics before putting them out for trash pickup.

Check Your Insurance

Homeowners and renters insurance usually cover theft of personal property, minus your deductible. Standard policies limit coverage for jewelry, watches, and some collectibles, so consider scheduling new gifts of high value. A security system may also earn you a discount.
