With the rise of online shopping and home delivery services, porch piracy has become a growing concern for many homeowners.
Thieves often target packages left unattended outside homes, taking advantage of the lack of supervision to steal items ranging from small parcels to larger deliveries. This type of theft can occur in both urban and suburban areas, and can happen during the day or at night when residents are away from home.
There are various ways to prevent porch piracy, such as requiring signature confirmation for deliveries, installing security cameras, using secure package lockers, or having packages delivered to a secure location instead of leaving them unattended on the porch.
If you are out and noticed through your doorbell camera a parcel has been delivered and you won't be home for a while. Call/text your neighbour and have them retrieve the parcel till you get home.
