As you gear up for well-deserved summer vacations, it's important to keep your home safe and secure while you're away. We've compiled our top six essential tips to help ensure your home remains protected, giving you peace of mind to fully enjoy your vacation!
Security System
Activate your home security system and inform the security provider of your travel plans to enhance monitoring.
Light Timers
Set up timers or smart home systems to automatically turn lights on and off, simulating an occupied home.
Hold Mail Service
Stop mail and newspaper deliveries through the postal service's hold mail service to prevent a buildup that indicates no one is home.
Neighbor Help
Arrange for a trusted neighbor to watch your house, collect any deliveries, and occasionally use your driveway to make the house appear lived-in.
Secure Windows and Doors
Ensure all entry points are securely locked and consider adding extra locks or security enhancements to deter break-ins.
