APARTMENT SAFETY-GOING ON VACATION

WHEN YOU GO ON VACATION

|Remember, unless there is the Cop itemizing this over your shoulder, YOU ARE NOT SAFE! The police settle a pretty belonging job of SOLVING crimes. They can't PREVENT crimes. The your safety, the preserve of your family, again the protection of your property is YOUR responsibility.

|One of the times your home is most vulnerable is when it is left empty since an extended period of time. Darkened windows, mail or newspapers collecting and sealed windows in hotter weather integrated advertise your absence to the potential burglar.

|The best protection over your apartment during your absence is to have a domicile sitter. the friend you trust staying during your house can move care of your pets and/or plants in addition to making sure the house is inhabited.

|Have a neighbor check on your apartment while you're away turning on lights, radios or TVs and opening and closing curtains will give your unit the advent of someone home.

|If you don't have the friend or neighbor to housesit or side with your apartment while you're away perhaps even if you carry through we should keep not only lights but a TV or radio on a timer. If you're like me and presume true your TV on almost all the time you're home [NOTE: i don't watch it, it's rightful background noise.], the deficiency of the sound and that glittering light in the windows announces that you're not there.

|Make sure whoever is checking your apartment occasion you're away knows how to work your alarm system and who to construe in box of a problem.

|Unless you have a house sitter, stop your mail again any newspaper or other smoothness. Nothing announces an empty apartment more suitable than a collection of newspapers or an overflowing mailbox. examine a nearby neighbor to pick up any packages delivered while you're gone.

|If you have a garden or plants on your balcony, make sure someone is watering the plants regularly or put the plants where they can't be seen. Plants slowly bereavement due to lack of humidify may announce your absence.

|Check your lease. Many landlords require that you notify them if your apartment is going to be left empty for any period of time (this is so they can enter in case of emergency even if they can't finish you). If you've got a house sitter this isn't necessary.
